This directory contains a sample custom service that you can use as a template
for creating your own services.
Follow these steps to add your own services:
1. Modify the sample service MyService to do what you want. It could generate
config/script files, mount per-node directories, start processes/scripts,
etc. sample.py is a Python file that defines one or more classes to be
imported. You can create multiple Python files that will be imported.
Add any new filenames to the __init__.py file.
2. Put these files in a directory such as /home/username/.core/myservices
Note that the last component of this directory name 'myservices' should not
be named something like 'services' which conflicts with an existing Python
name (the syntax 'from myservices import *' is used).
3. Add a 'custom_services_dir = /home/username/.core/myservices' entry to the
/etc/core/core.conf file.
4. Restart the CORE daemon (core-daemon). Any import errors (Python syntax)
should be displayed in the /var/log/core-daemon.log log file (or on screen).
5. Start using your custom service on your nodes. You can create a new node
type that uses your service, or change the default services for an existing
node type, or change individual nodes.
