* Update README.md
I believe the owner and group of the `chown` command here are mixed up. As it was caused a permissions issue, with the service being unable to read the directory.

Revert changes back to the original suggested changes
The rc.subr framework already takes care of substituting user. So, using
daemon's -u option is double user-substitution and fails if $caddy_user
is non-root.
This change eliminates the `[ERROR] Could not write pidfile: open /var/run/caddy.pid: permission denied` from caddy.log.
The start-stop-daemon writes the file as root so the DAEMONUSER that caddy runs as cannot write to the .pid file.
The previous setting caused the service to hit a rate-limit when it was
restarted more than 5 times in 24h.
Editing the Caddyfile and restarting the service could also easily
trigger this rate limit.
One could argue that users could simply call `systemctl reset-failed
caddy` to reset the rate-limit counter, but this is counterintuitive
because most users won't know this command and are possibly unaware that
they had hit a rate-limit.
The service is now allowed to restart 10 times in 10 seconds before
hitting a rate limit.
This should be conservative enough to rate limit quickly failing
services and to allow users to edit and test their caddy configuration.
This closes#1718
Remove restart limit settings and use defaults
By default 5 restarts within 10 seconds are allowed without
encountering a restart limit hit, see `man systemd.unit` for details.
Set Restart to on-abnormal
The table in https://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/systemd.service.html#Restart=
shows the conditions for which on-abnormal would restart the service.
It will *not* restart the service in the following cases:
- a non-zero exit status, e.g. an invalid Caddyfile
- a zero exit code (or those specified in SuccessExitStatus=) and a clean signal
clean signals are SIGHUP, SIGINT, SIGTERM or SIGPIPE
3536f49e8f/src/basic/exit-status.c (L205)
The service *will be restarted* in the following cases:
- a unclean signal, e.g. SIGKILL
- on start and watchdog timeout (we don't use those systemd service
constructs explicitly)
* uses more of the builtin functionality for starting and stopping of the process by using command and command_args along with procname
* removed -f from daemon as this was hiding error message that were sent to stdout on startup, now writing stdout to the logfile directly
for example, this was being hidden:
“Activating privacy features.. [www.domain.com] failed to get certificate: Error presenting token: Could not find the start of authority”
it now shows up in the log
* aded “caddy_env” to allow the setting of environment variables that caddy might need, for example when setting creds for “DNS Challenge”
* added a check to ensure caddy_config_path file exists
* update to match same paths as systemd
* update to match new launchd plist
* generated from scratch with LaunchControl, flawless
Had some issues with the previous go and found LaunchControl which made it easy to generate a perfectly correct launchd conf
* Update README.md
