Daemon.md

If you're using Ubuntu, you might find this upscript very helpful. The steps below will create an init script that will make slanger run at boot and restart if it fails. Open /etc/init/slanger and add:

start on started networking and runlevel [2345]
stop on runlevel [016]
respawn
script
    LANG=en_US.UTF-8 /usr/local/bin/slanger --app_key KEY --secret SECRET --redis_address redis://REDIS_IP:REDIS_PORT/REDIS_DB
end script

This example assumes you're using rvm and a custom redis configuration

Then, to start / stop the service, just do

service slanger start
service slanger stop

 redis-server &> /dev/null &
  slanger --app_key your_api_key --secret your_secret_key
