Run as a service

Using systemd

• Download the binary executable file from releases.

• Rename the downloaded binary executable file to mihomo and move it to /usr/local/bin/.

• Run Mihomo as a daemon.

Use the following commands to copy the Mihomo binary file to /usr/local/bin and the configuration file to /etc/mihomo:

cp mihomo /usr/local/bin
cp config.yaml /etc/mihomo

Create a systemd configuration file /etc/systemd/system/mihomo.service:
