# systemctl

> The missing service file manager for `Macos` / `Mac` / `OSX` or any other \*NIX system

> that doesn't come with [systemd](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Systemd).  

> _Behind the curtains, it is using [screen](https://www.gnu.org/software/screen/manual/screen.html)_



  



## Usage

> The usage is basically the same as with the original systemctl command:

    systemctl  

> Available commands:

* start

* status

* stop 

> If not a full path to the service file was given, it will look for it in  

`/etc/systemd/system`

> The directory `/etc/systemd/system` does not exist by default in MacOS.  

> To create it, execute:

    sudo mkdir -p /etc/systemd/system

> Now you can place `.service` files there.
