I need to make an installation for XBMC service (not Add-on) and after installation the service must be registered to be launched automatically after XBMC start.
I can't find any description and standard solution anywhere.
It would be perfect if the XBMC service can be installed through the XBMC UI like and other Add-on.
Add-on have special structure. I am not sure if the service has the same or not.
In xbmc the only services that can be setup to run when xbmc starts are python services, which are also addons.
These service addons differ from normal addons by adding the xbmc.service extension point and specifying a python file to execute using the following line or similar in the addon.xml file.
<extension point="xbmc.service" library="default.py" start="[login|startup]">
Service addons do have an identical structure to current xbmc addons.
See the xbmc wiki page Automatically start addons using services, for further details.
