Thanks a lot for this, Kyle. I had just posted on Ignition Design Help on Friday asking if anyone had something like this.
I’m running a Vision Panel Edition on Ubuntu 12.04. Took me a few tries, but here is an example that worked for me on the launch.properties file. (BTW, this file got generated in the ~/.ignition directory after running the launcher.jar file from the Archive Manager with Java Runtime):
launchjar=/usr/local/bin/ignition/lib/core/launch/launchclient.jar
httpsPort=8083
host=localhost
project=project_name
httpPort=8088
I’m using Unity, so in the StartUp Manager, I added an application start-up program with the command:
java -jar /path/to/launcher.jar
That’s it! I’ll try this later with regular clients with a separate Gateway.
