Setting up RhinoReminds as a system service
Some helpful template files are located in this repository to aid in setting RhinoReminds up as a system service.
start_service.sh
Contains a script that reads in CLI variables from a file, sets up a PID file directory with the appropriate permissions, and then executes RhinoReminds as an unprivileged user.rhinoreminds.service
Contains a systemd service file compatible withstart_service.sh
rhinoreminds-rsyslog.conf
Contains an Rsyslog definition file compatible with the systemd service file defined above. When put in/etc/rsyslog.d
(don't forget to restart thersyslog
service!), it will write and auto-rotate log files of the standard output and standard error of the main RhinoReminds process to a subfolder fo/var/log
automatically.
Usage
The bot operates on natural language instructions. It picks what to do from the first word in the sentence, but the rest is parsed via AI.
