Spring Boot init.d script
NOTE: As of Spring Boot 1.3 it is possible to have an official init.d script injected onto the front of a packaged .jar file. Instructions found in the Spring documentation
This script is meant to run a spring-boot project as a linux service using initd. It is meant as a template that can be reconfigured to an arbitrary war file.
Use the variable names at the top of the script to customize to your specific project.
This file is known to work with CentOS, however, will not work yet for Ubuntu (due to the differences in /etc/init.d/functions).
