By default, the web interface runs on port 8080. You can also specify a different endpoint with the `-http` parameter. babelweb2 uses the local configuration interface of babeld. This must have been activated beforehand. babeld assumes that this is active on `[::1]:33123`. Alternatively, you can specify the endpoint with the `-node=` flag. + + +## Install as Systemd Unit + +In order to install babelweb2 as a systemd unit, we must first install the necessary files into the system. For this we can execute the following commands in the babelweb2 git directory: +``` +sudo cp babelweb2 /usr/local/bin +sudo mkdir -p /usr/share/babelweb2/ +sudo cp -r ./static/ /usr/share/babelweb2/ +``` + +After that we create the unit file `/etc/systemd/system/babelweb2.service`: +``` +[Unit] +Description=Yet Another Monitoring Tool for the Babel routing daemon +Documentation=https://github.com/Vivena/babelweb2 + +[Service] +LimitNOFILE=1048576 +LimitNPROC=512 +User=nobody +EnvironmentFile=/etc/default/babelweb2 +ExecStart=/usr/local/bin/babelweb2 -http $PORT -static $STATIC_DIR +ExecReload=/bin/kill -SIGUSR1 $MAINPID +Restart=on-failure + +[Install] +WantedBy=multi-user.target +``` + +After that you can reload the units: +``` +systemctl daemon-reload +``` + +For babelweb2 to work, we still need to specify the arguments.
