Creating new runit service

[unbalancedskunk]

Note: if creating folder for only one of them and it works you dont have to create for both.

First create a folder both at /lib/init/services/ and /etc/init/multi/
folder name should be service name

Example

Code: [Select]

cd /lib/init/services/
sudo mkdir service_name_as_folder
cd service_name_as_folder
nano run
copy paste below
]#!/bin/sh
[ -e /run/dbus/system_bus_socket ] || exit 1
exec /usr/bin/service_name

then inside these folder you have created, you need to create a file named as run.

later put the code inside a file named as run. The code you need to put is at below.

example for dockerd;

Code: [Select]

#!/bin/sh
[ -e /run/dbus/system_bus_socket ] || exit 1
exec /usr/bin/dockerd
Renember you can change this part of script

Code: [Select]

/usr/bin/dockerd like ---> /usr/bin/new_init_service
run

Code: [Select]

sv up folder_name_you_have_created to enable this service and well done.
