Sure, I can guide you through the process of running a Python script as a service on Ubuntu. We’ll use systemd, a system and service manager for Linux, to accomplish this. In this tutorial, I’ll assume you have a basic understanding of Python and have a script that you want to run as a service.
Create a simple Python script that you want to run as a service. For example, let’s create a script called myscript.py:
Create a systemd service unit file for your Python script. This file tells systemd how to manage your service. Create a file named myscript.service in the /etc/systemd/system/ directory:
Make sure to replace /path/to/your/script/ with the actual path to your Python script.
After creating the service unit file, reload the systemd manager configuration:
Start the service using the following command:
Enable the service to start on boot:
Check the status of your service to ensure it’s running without errors:
If everything is set up correctly, you should see the status as “active (running).”
If you ever need to stop or disable the service, you can use the following commands:
That’s it! You’ve successfully created a systemd service for your Python script on Ubuntu. You can customize the service unit file based on your specific requirements.
