Description
It was proposed in https://github.com/tensor5/haskell-happstack/issues/11 to add `systemd` service file to the `haskell-gitit` Arch Linux package. We agreed that this issue should be discussed upstream.
We think that there should be two service files, one named `gitit.service`:
``` ini
[Unit]
Description=Gitit wiki
After=network.target
[Service]
ExecStart=/usr/bin/gitit -f /etc/gitit/default.conf
WorkingDirectory=/srv/gitit/default
User=gitit
Group=gitit
#Restart=on-failure
[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target
```
and the other named `gitit@.service`:
``` ini
[Unit]
Description=Gitit wiki
After=network.target
[Service]
ExecStart=/usr/bin/gitit -f /etc/gitit/%I.conf
WorkingDirectory=/srv/gitit/%I
User=gitit
Group=gitit
#Restart=on-failure
[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target
```
with `gitit` user and group being created upon installation and `%I` being the [unescaped instance name](http://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/systemd.unit.html#Specifiers). User can enable mutliple instances by running e.g. `systemctl start gitit@public.service`. Depending on the configuration it could run on port 80 (the executable `/usr/bin/gitit` should be granted the capability `CAP_NET_BIND_SERVICE`), or proxied behind a web server. The use of the directory `/srv/gitit` as home of `gitit` data is still being debated.
