# Basic init yt-local for openrc
|
||
|
||
## Prerequisites
|
||
|
||
- System with OpenRC installed and configured.
|
||
- Administrative privileges (doas or sudo).
|
||
- `ytlocal` script located at `/usr/sbin/ytlocal` and application files in an accessible directory.
|
||
|
||
## Service Installation
|
||
|
||
1. **Create the OpenRC service script** `/etc/init.d/ytlocal`:
|
||
|
||
```sh
|
||
#!/sbin/openrc-run
|
||
# Distributed under the terms of the GNU General Public License v3 or later
|
||
name="yt-local"
|
||
pidfile="/var/run/ytlocal.pid"
|
||
command="/usr/sbin/ytlocal"
|
||
|
||
depend() {
|
||
use net
|
||
}
|
||
|
||
start_pre() {
|
||
if [ ! -f /usr/sbin/ytlocal ]; then
|
||
eerror "Please create script file of ytlocal in '/usr/sbin/ytlocal'"
|
||
return 1
|
||
else
|
||
return 0
|
||
fi
|
||
}
|
||
|
||
start() {
|
||
ebegin "Starting yt-local"
|
||
start-stop-daemon --start --exec "${command}" --pidfile "${pidfile}"
|
||
eend $?
|
||
}
|
||
|
||
reload() {
|
||
ebegin "Reloading ${name}"
|
||
start-stop-daemon --signal HUP --pidfile "${pidfile}"
|
||
eend $?
|
||
}
|
||
|
||
stop() {
|
||
ebegin "Stopping ${name}"
|
||
start-stop-daemon --quiet --stop --exec "${command}" --pidfile "${pidfile}"
|
||
eend $?
|
||
}
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
> [!NOTE]
|
||
> Ensure the script is executable:
|
||
>
|
||
> ```sh
|
||
> doas chmod a+x /etc/init.d/ytlocal
|
||
> ```
|
||
|
||
2. **Create the executable script** `/usr/sbin/ytlocal`:
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
#!/usr/bin/env bash
|
||
|
||
# Change the working directory according to your installation path
|
||
# Example: if installed in /usr/local/ytlocal, use:
|
||
cd /home/your-path/ytlocal/ # <-- MODIFY TO YOUR PATH
|
||
source venv/bin/activate
|
||
python server.py > /dev/null 2>&1 &
|
||
echo $! > /var/run/ytlocal.pid
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
> [!WARNING]
|
||
> Run this script only as root or via `doas`, as it writes to `/var/run` and uses network privileges.
|
||
|
||
> [!TIP]
|
||
> To store the PID in a different location, adjust the `pidfile` variable in the service script.
|
||
|
||
> [!IMPORTANT]
|
||
> Verify that the virtual environment (`venv`) is correctly set up and that `python` points to the appropriate version.
|
||
|
||
> [!CAUTION]
|
||
> Do not stop the process manually; use OpenRC commands (`rc-service ytlocal stop`) to avoid race conditions.
|
||
|
||
> [!NOTE]
|
||
> When run with administrative privileges, the configuration is saved in `/root/.yt-local`, which is root‑only.
|
||
|
||
## Service Management
|
||
|
||
- **Status**: `doas rc-service ytlocal status`
|
||
- **Start**: `doas rc-service ytlocal start`
|
||
- **Restart**: `doas rc-service ytlocal restart`
|
||
- **Stop**: `doas rc-service ytlocal stop`
|
||
- **Enable at boot**: `doas rc-update add ytlocal default`
|
||
- **Disable**: `doas rc-update del ytlocal`
|
||
|
||
## Post‑Installation Verification
|
||
|
||
- Confirm the process is running: `doas rc-service ytlocal status`
|
||
- Inspect logs for issues: `doas tail -f /var/log/ytlocal.log` (if logging is configured).
|
||
|
||
## Troubleshooting Common Issues
|
||
|
||
- **Service fails to start**: verify script permissions, correct `command=` path, and that the virtualenv exists.
|
||
- **Port conflict**: adjust the server’s port configuration before launching.
|
||
- **Import errors**: ensure all dependencies are installed in the virtual environment.
|
||
|
||
[!IMPORTANT]
|
||
Keep the service script updated when modifying startup logic or adding new dependencies.
