How can I start peerflix-server at startup using forever?

[n00b12345]

Or even a script? Forever fails when called from crontab.

Big fan of peerflix.

I haven't tried it in a while, but here's a config that worked for me a couple of years ago: #10 (comment)
Not sure if it will still work in the modern linux distros based on systemd.

I would love to see an implementation of some config scripts for systemd and openrc. I tried an OpenRC version the other day but no go. It looked like this maybe someone could give me some help??

#!/usr/bin/openrc-run
name="peerflix-server"
start() {
ebegin "Starting Peerflix Server"
/usr/bin/forever start $(which peerflix-server)
}
stop() {
ebegin "Stopping Peerflix Server"
/usr/bin/forever stop $(which peerflix-server)
}

screen peerflix-server
