Automating gomotics startup on linux with supervisord - mch1307/gomotics GitHub Wiki

There are several ways to setup gomotics to be started at system boot on linux systems (systemV, upstart,.. ). This small guide will use supervisor to manage the gomotics process

Install supervisor

sudo apt-get install supervisor

Configure

edit /etc/supervisor/conf.d/gomotics.conf as follows, customize the path of command and the environment variables to your needs:

[program:gomotics]
command=/opt/gomotics/gomotics
autostart=true
autorestart=true
stderr_logfile=/var/log/gomotics.log
stdout_logfile=/var/log/gomotics.log
user=www-data
environment=JEE_APIKEY="jeedom api key",JEE_URL="http://jeedom-host/core/api/jeeApi.php",LOG_LEVEL="INFO",LOG_PATH="stdout",AUTO_CREATE_OBJECTS="Y"

gomotics parameters reference is available here

Update supervisor conf:

sudo supervisorctl reread
sudo supervisorctl update

Operate

Start gomotics

sudo supervisorctl start gomotics

Check status

sudo supervisorctl status gomotics

In case of problem

Check the log file in /var/log/gomotics.log

You can change the log level in supervisor config in order to get more information (DEBUG, TRACE, ...)
