I am writing some webservices in Go on a linux machine, so the Go executable needs to keep running

which is the best way to do it?

should I setup the Go executable as a service on the linux machine?

Answer 1

The short answer: use the system service manager if you want to keep things super-simple. CentOS currently uses Upstart, and it's well documented and can handle most Go applications without too many problems. There are some good examples of Upstart + Go here and here

The long answer: personal preference. Supervisord, Monit and Circus are good options as well, but bring differing levels of complexity. I personally like supervisord, since it has a fairly clear syntax and a good heap of options.

There's also a good run-down here: http://tech.cueup.com/blog/2013/03/08/running-daemons/
