How to set jellyfin server flatpak to start automaticly when system boots up?
I was doing this earlier wit deb version, but now with flatpak i dont know how to do it.
I installed it via popshop on linux pop os and now i have icon in my apps meny but its anoying to start it manualy every time i restart my pc…
There are several options:
- Create a systemd service
+: Can launch application without logging in
-: Requires learning how to add a systemd service
- Autostart application on startup
+: Easy
-: Requires logging in before it starts
- Use system Docker container
+: Quite easy
-: Works without logging in
- Use Podman container with systemd-service
+: Doesn’t require root permissions
I recommend going with Docker because Flatpak isn’t really meant for server applications.
Just a small note: docker can also run rootless for a while. The configuration is slightly convoluted, but can be done.
