Make sure NerdCTL and Containerd are installed and set up

Linux

Getting started with Finch Daemon on Linux only requires a few steps:

  1. Clone the repository - git clone https://github.com/runfinch/finch-daemon.git
  2. cd finch-daemon
  3. Install Go and make sure that go version is >= 1.22
  4. Build and spin up the finch-daemon server with
    make
    sudo bin/finch-daemon --debug --socket-owner $UID
  5. Test any changes with make test-unit and sudo make test-e2e

Creating a systemd service

If you want finch-daemon to be managed as a systemd service, for benefits like automatic restart if it gets killed, you can configure it as a systemd service on Linux by following these steps:

  1. cd /path/to/finch-daemon
  2. sudo cp finch.service /etc/systemd/system/
  3. Refresh the service files to include the new service - sudo systemctl daemon-reload
  4. Start the service - sudo systemctl start finch.service
  5. To check the status of the service - sudo systemctl status finch.service
  6. To enable the service on every reboot - sudo systemctl enable finch.service
  7. To disable the service on every reboot - sudo systemctl disable finch.service
