LaunchDaemons are the correct way to create services that are restart proof. There is now only a single destination place mentioned in the readme for the plist file. Signed-off-by: Dávid Balakirev <dave00ster@gmail.com>

# MacOS LaunchDaemon
|
|
|
|
If you're installing through a package manager, you probably don't need to deal
|
|
with this file.
|
|
|
|
The `plist` file should be put in `/Library/LaunchDaemons/` (user defined daemons), and the binary installed at
|
|
`/usr/local/bin/node_exporter`.
|
|
|
|
Ex. install globally by
|
|
|
|
sudo cp -n node_exporter /usr/local/bin/
|
|
sudo cp -n examples/launchctl/io.prometheus.node_exporter.plist /Library/LaunchDaemons/
|
|
sudo launchctl bootstrap system/ /Library/LaunchDaemons/io.prometheus.node_exporter.plist
|
|
|
|
# Optionally configure by dropping CLI arguments in a file
|
|
echo -- '--web.listen-address=:9101' | sudo tee /usr/local/etc/node_exporter.args
|
|
|
|
# Check it's running
|
|
sudo launchctl list | grep node_exporter
|
|
|
|
# See full process state
|
|
sudo launchctl print system/io.prometheus.node_exporter
|
|
|
|
# View logs
|
|
sudo tail /tmp/node_exporter.log
