Auto startup on boot #27

Open Electrenator opened 1 year ago

Electrenator commented 1 year ago

Allowing automatic startup on boot. This would allow Tabbly to start when a user logs in, so I can not forget to start it. Hapens far to often that I forget to start tabbly.

An user should know that tabbly has started each time it does within the background. Some system message could be used for that.

Thought about doing this with a systemd user process but could probably do it much easier with crontab's @reboot

Currently just doing this by doing @reboot cd [project_dir]; bash autostart.sh in the crontab. Been doing this for a while now. Don't currently want to integrate this into the program itself but it probably woudn't be too hard to do, given the project doesn't change locations.

Autostart.sh file I currently use includes;

#!/bin/bash

# Add to cron useing 'cd [project path]; bash autostart.sh'
python -m venv venv &&
source venv/bin/activate &&
(
    until pip install -r requirements.txt;
    do # untill successfull execution / dependancy download
        echo -e "\nRetrying dependancy install in 1 minute...\n";
        sleep 60;
    done;

    python src/main.py --verbose
) &>> log/crontab-$(hostname).log;

deactivate
