Java Linux Daemons/Services with Server Side Input

Question

I have a java executable that runs a service. It allows the admin to input commands while the service is running. It usually requires an open terminal to run. I connect to my server via ssh.

I can launch the service and it works but I can't exit the terminal without the service closing.

I also can't create a simple daemon because then I won't have access to give the service server-side input.

Is there any sort of daemon where I can have a terminal interface for input, or is there a persistent ssh terminal where even when I exit it will be left running?

Answer 1

to make your process do not close when you exit the terminal you can use command like:

nohup <command/run> >/path/to/log 2>/path/to/errlog &

If you want persistent terminal you can use command like screen or tmux
