Under the Mac installed the PHP development environment (PHP-FPM,NGINX,MYSQL), want to set up self-boot, originally thought and the General Linux system, but also in rc.d such directory placement startup script. On the Internet to check some information, found that Apple should be completely closed, can only use the Mac system Launchctl to do this thing.
Launchctl in fact is to write a *.plist file, its role and Linux in the role of Crontab is the same. Let's take a self-initiated MySql example
1, the new file com.mysql.plist, but this file needs to be placed in the /library/launchdaemons directory
sudo vim/library/launchdaemons/com.mysql.plist
The contents are as follows:
<! DOCTYPE plist Public "-//apple//dtd plist 1.0//en" "Http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd" > < Plist version= "1.0" > <dict> <key>Label</key> <string>com.mysql</ string> <key>ProgramArguments</key> <array> <string>/usr/local/mysql/ bin/mysqld_safe</string> </array> <key>RunAtLoad</key> <true/> <key>KeepAlive</key> <true/></dict> </plist>
2, register this plist file to the system service.
sudo launchctl load-w/library/launchdaemons/com.mysql.plist
Note: The uninstall command is
sudo launchctl unload-w/library/launchdaemons/com.mysql.plist
3. Modify Execution permissions
sudo chown root:wheel/library/launchdaemons/com.mysql.plistsudo chmod +x/library/launchdaemons/com.mysql.plist
4, other development software (Nginx, PHP-FPM) the same configuration
/library/launchdaemons/com.nginx.plist
<! DOCTYPE plist Public "-//apple//dtd plist 1.0//en" "Http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd" ><plist Version= "1.0" ><dict> <key>Label</key> <string>com.nginx</string> <key>ProgramArguments</key> <array> <string>/usr/local/nginx/sbin/nginx</ string> </array> <key>RunAtLoad</key> <true/> <key>keepalive </key> <true/></dict></plist>
/library/launchdaemons/com.php-fpm.plist
<! DOCTYPE plist Public "-//apple//dtd plist 1.0//en" "Http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd" ><plist Version= "1.0" ><dict> <key>Label</key> <string>com.php-fpm</string> <key>ProgramArguments</key> <array> <string>/usr/local/php/sbin/php-fpm-d </string> </array> <key>RunAtLoad</key> <true/> <key> Keepalive</key> <true/></dict></plist>
Possible " error "
1, the implementation of LAUNCHCTL, the dubious ownership on file (skipping) this error
The reason is: This plist file must belong to the root user, wheel group, with chown modification.
sudo chown root:wheel/library/launchdaemons/com.mysql.plist
2, when the implementation of Launchctl, Launchctl:no plist was returned this error
The reason is: the contents of the Plist file may be malformed.
Use the following command to see if there is a problem with the file format, I use this check to see that there is a <true> tag is not closed.
sudo plutil-lint/library/launchdaemons/com.mysql.plist
Note: User names and user groups in profiles such asphp-fpm.conf,nginx.conf , etc. are set to the currently logged in user, that is, Jianbao, staff.
