A Ghost OpenRC Script

Whipped up an OpenRC script for Ghost. Feel free to use it for yourself.

Things to be aware of:

• The script was designed for Funtoo.
• The script expects Ghost to be in $GHOST_ROOT.
• The script runs Ghost as $GHOST_USER:$GHOST_GROUP.
• The script exports the $NODE_ENV to production.

#!/sbin/runscript

# PATH should only include /usr/* if it runs after the mountnfs.sh script
