You can restart Sidekiq automatically after a reboot on Ubuntu by adding a Systemd service unit file. Here's how you can create the file:
1. Create a new file at /etc/systemd/system/sidekiq.service
2. Add the following contents to the file, replacing <user> with the username running Sidekiq and <path_to_sidekiq> with the path to the Sidekiq binary:
[Unit]
Description=Sidekiq
[Service]
Type=simple
User=<user>
WorkingDirectory=<path_to_sidekiq>
ExecStart=<path_to_sidekiq>/bin/sidekiq
Restart=always
[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target
3. Reload Systemd to pick up the new service file: sudo systemctl daemon-reload
4. Enable the Sidekiq service to start at boot: sudo systemctl enable sidekiq
5. Start the Sidekiq service: sudo systemctl start sidekiq
After these steps, Sidekiq should automatically restart after a reboot on your Ubuntu system.
