Setting up Tornado - Fresh AWS

git clone repo

sudo apt-get install python-dev python-pycurl python-simplejson
sudo apt-get install python3-pip
sudo pip install tornado
sudo apt-get install git

Note: Default python is python 2.7 so need to say python3 explicitly

python3 tornado_<file>.py will run the server

#!/usr/bin/python3 at the top of the files that will be run with Upstart
chmod +x tornado_<file>.py will make the file an executable

create a file called tornado<file>.conf
description "My Service"
author "YOUR NAME HERE"
  
start on (local-filesystems and net-device-up)
stop on runlevel [06]
  
respawn
exec /home/ubuntu/<path>/tornado_<file>.py


cp /home/USERNAME/myservice/myservice.conf /etc/init/myservice.conf // copy file into /etc/init
sudo service tornado<file> start
