Systemd service

Open a terminal and run sudo nano /etc/systemd/system/fafi.service Edit the service file: Add the following content to the file, adjusting the ExecStart, User, and WorkingDirectory (location of the .env file) fields as necessary:

[Unit]
Description=Fafi Web Server
After=network.target

[Service]
Type=simple
User=YOU
WorkingDirectory=/home/YOU/path/to/fafi
ExecStart=/home/YOU/path/to/fafi/your-binary-name
Restart=on-failure

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target

Replace your-binary-name with the actual name of your fafi binary. Reload systemd: After creating or modifying the service file, you need to reload the systemd manager configuration:

sudo systemctl daemon-reload

Start the service: You can now start your service with the following command:

sudo systemctl start fafi.service

Enable the service to start on boot: If you want the service to start automatically at boot, run:

sudo systemctl enable fafi.service

Check the status of the service: You can check the status of your service to ensure it is running correctly:

sudo systemctl status fafi.service

View logs: If you need to troubleshoot, you can view the logs for your service using:

journalctl -u fafi2service

That's it! Your Fafi instance should now be running as a systemd service.
