Create a .service file
nano /usr/lib/systemd/system/mySite.service
as follows:
[Unit]
Description=mySite Service
[Service]
ExecStart=/usr/bin/box server start /var/www/mySiteAPI/server.json
Type=forking
[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target
Start the service
systemctl start mySite.service
Give the service about a minute to load up, then check its status
systemctl status mySite.service
Once you've verified the service is running as expected, enable the service to load at boot
systemctl enable mySite.service
