# AppDaemon VSCode Tunnel

## Install Service

Use the `install_service.py` script to install.

- Creates symlinks to `/etc/systemd/system`
    - `example.socket`
    - `example.service`
- Reloads the service definitions
- Starts the `example.socket`
- Enables the `example.socket` to start at boot

> [!NOTE]  
> The `example.socket` does cause `example.service` to start when something connects to the socket at `/run/example.sock`.

> [!CAUTION]
> `example.service` does not stop when disconnecting from `/run/example.sock`

## Scripts

- `install_service.py`: Installs the services on the system
- `run_service.py`: Used to demo running the code tunnel from a python function
- `test_socket.py`: Opens a connection to the socket
- `cleanup_services.sh`: Stops services and removes symlinks
