### pigpiod
|
||||
|
||||
`pigpiod` is a script that allows to run pigpiod as a Linux service with root privileges.
|
||||
The advantage of running pigpiod as a service is that pigpiod can be automatically launched on system startup.
|
||||
To automatically start pigpiod as a service, do the following:
|
||||
|
||||
+ Copy `pigpiod` from this directory to `/etc/init.d/`.
|
||||
|
||||
+ Make it executable:
|
||||
```
|
||||
sudo chmod +x /etc/init.d/pigpiod
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
+ Tell update-rc.d to automatically start the pigpiod service on system startup:
|
||||
```
|
||||
sudo update-rc.d skeleton defaults
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
+ Now, you can start, stop, and restart pigpiod using
|
||||
```
|
||||
sudo service pigpiod start
|
||||
sudo service pigpiod stop
|
||||
sudo service pigpiod restart
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
### Findpigpio.cmake
|
||||
|
||||
