Auto Start on a Mac Mini

From build 3044 the development baton passed to Mark Crossley. Mark has been responsible for all the Builds since. He has made the code available on GitHub. It is Mark's hope that others will join in this development, but at the very least he welcomes your ideas for future developments (see Cumulus MX Development suggestions).

Auto Start on a Mac Mini

Post by The Dalek Hunter »

I have just got CMX running on a Mac Mini under Monterey.

At the moment I am launching it in a terminal with mono CumulusMX.exe and it works perfectly.

How do I get it to start automatically with the Mac starts up.

I have found this

But is there a better way??

Search the forum and wiki for how to run as a service. AFAIK Monterey uses systemd so you should be able to follow the Linux instructions to achieve your aim.
