Service configuration

polygon-edge binary needs to run as a system service automatically upon established network connectivity and have start / stop / restart functionalities. We recommend using a service manager like systemd.

Example systemd system configuration file:

[Unit]
Description=Polygon Edge Server
After=network.target
StartLimitIntervalSec=0

[Service]
Type=simple
Restart=always
RestartSec=10
User=ubuntu
ExecStart=/usr/local/bin/polygon-edge server --config /home/ubuntu/polygon/config.yaml

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target
