Description=DBView Replication
After=network.target

[Service]
Environment=CMD_OPTIONS=--daemon --duration 35s
Environment=CONFIG_FILE=/opt/dbview/config.toml
Type=simple
User=root
Group=root
ExecStart="/opt/dbview/dbview" replicate --config "${CONFIG_FILE}" ${CMD_OPTIONS}

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target

Update CMD_DIR, CMD_OPTIONS, and CONFIG_FILE for different PATH and configurations.

Then reload systemd configurations to use your service:

systemctl daemon-reload
