process.on("SIGINT", stopService);
(async () => { await runService({dataDir: './ux-data-directory'}) })();

Running the UXWallet service via SystemD

SystemD is the preferred method for managing background services in a modern Unix environment. The UXWallet source code comes with a SystemD installation script in the service/bin/ path. To install UXWallet with SystemD, customize the uxwallet.service file with your favorite text editor then copy the file to /etc/systemd/system/uxwallet.service. You will need to edit the following:

• edit the USER to the user you wish to run the UXWallet service
• edit the GROUP to the group permission you wish to run the UXWallet service

$ service/bin/uxwallet.service


[Service]
User=CHANGE_USER
Group=CHANGE_GROUP

After copying the file to the directory listed above execute systemctl daemon-reload to load the new service. In order to activate and run the service, execute systemctl start uxwallet. You can check the status with systemctl status uxwallet. Alternatively, you can run the server-status.sh script.

Running the UXWallet service via LaunchD

LaunchD is the preferred method for managing background services on OSX. The UXWallet source code comes with a LaunchD installation script in the service/bin path. To install UXWallet with LaunchD, customize the uxwallet.launchd file with your favorite text editor then copy the file to ~/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.eostitan.uxwallet.plist.

After copying the file to the directory listed above, execute launchctl load -w ~/Library/LaunchAgents/com.eostitan.uxwallet.plist. You can check to see if the service is running by executing launchctl list | grep uxwallet. You will see some result only if the service is running. Alternatively, you can run the server-status.sh script.
