Linux systemd unit file

[nethope]

Thank you for this software! I'm running it on Debian 12 in LXC (Proxmox), and I wanted a systemd unit file so the AmbientWeather Local Server would automatically start after a reboot. (This is not the dotnet systemd integration.) Here's what works for me:

[Unit]
Description=AmbientWeather Local Server

[Service]
Environment=DOTNET_CLI_HOME=/root/ambientweather-local-server/src/Api/ DOTNET_CLI_TELEMETRY_OPTOUT=1
Type=exec
ExecStart=/usr/bin/dotnet run --project /root/ambientweather-local-server/src/Api/Api.csproj
StandardOutput=file:/root/ambientweather-local-server/src/Api/output/logs.txt
StandardError=file:/root/ambientweather-local-server/src/Api/output/logs.txt
SyslogIdentifier=AmbientWeather-Local-Server

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target

I saved that as /etc/systemd/system/AmbientWeather.service . I chose file: for output instead of append: so I don't have to configure any log rotation; historical log data can be accessed with journalctl --full --no-pager --unit AmbientWeather so I personally don't miss it. I turned off dotnet telemetry since this container doesn't have Internet access.
