It is possible to run EFTLink-rest-api as a service, using a third-party wrapper. EFTLink-rest-api is distributed with a version of Tanuki Software Limited Java Service Wrapper.

Note:

You may be required to give script file(s) execution rights. This can be accomplished by opening a terminal window and typing:

sudo chmod +x <PathToFile>

for example, sudo chmod +x /opt/eftlink/eftlink-rest-api.sh

Follow the steps below on how to configure EFTLink to run as a service.
