A service file is needed to control Home Assistant with `systemd`. The template below should be created using a text editor. Note, root permissions via `sudo` will likely be needed. The following should be noted to modify the template:
- `ExecStart` contains the path to `hass` and this may vary. Check with `whereis hass` for the location.
- For most systems, the file is `/etc/systemd/system/home-assistant@[your user].service` with [your user] replaced by the user account that Home Assistant will run as - normally `homeassistant`. In particular, this is the case for Ubuntu 16.04.

- If unfamiliar with command-line text editors, `sudo nano -w [filename]` can be used with `[filename]` replaced with the full path to the file. Ex. `sudo nano -w /etc/systemd/system/home-assistant@[your user].service`. After text entered, press CTRL-X then press Y to save and exit.
