STM32CubeMonitor: setup as service on boot

[acv_atr]

Hi everyone.

I'm facing some issues when trying to define STM32CodeMonitor v1.3.0 or v1.4.0 as service on boot on Ubuntu 20.04 Desktop version.

I'm used to Node-RED and there is a procedure to set it as service on boot quite easy and stable to implement here.

I have already seached on STM32CubeMonitor wiki and here at forum for some procedure but won't found any solution. There is a way to define STM32CubeMonitor as service on boot already documented by ST?

Hello @_acv_atr​ 

STM32cubeMonitor is an executable that is packaged through electron framework. Therefore procedure used to set it as a boot service may differ from Node-RED one.

On Ubuntu you can add it in the startup applications preferences to launch it at boot.

Hello @Richard.Chvr​ 

Thank you for your answer and workaround.

That approach works assuming automatically login by the user on power-up.

To ensure a better security approach, I want/need to start the STM32CubeMonitor before use login.

Tipically I can do this using a service.

If you have other idea or workaroud to implement this, please, let me know.

Thank you
