Launcher daemon for MacOS. Needs to be copied to /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.jamiebegin.metrics2mqtt.service.plist 1. Replace xxx's with your hostname (see note below), broker, username and password 2. Make sure permissions are correct: chmod 644 /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.jamiebegin.metrics2mqtt.service.plist 3. Test with: sudo launchctl load /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.jamiebegin.metrics2mqtt.service.plist then test it's running: sudo launchctl list | grep com.jamiebegin.metrics2mqtt.service You should see something like: 1265 0 com.jamiebegin.metrics2mqtt.service If not, debug with: sudo tail -n 1000 /var/log/system.log|grep com.jamiebegin.metrics2mqtt.service 4. Load permanently with: sudo launchctl load -w /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.jamiebegin.metrics2mqtt.service.plist NOTE: homeassistant is picky about naming in sensors. If your machine has .local, apostrophes or hyphens in the name, it won't be discovered. Message Home Assistant if that's an issue for you!

SystemD is already running on Raspberry Pi etc, so I include an example configuration file for that, and documented it, as an alternative to Supervisor (which required a download and I couldn't get to work on my Pi).
