My service is very basic, just an HTTP service. I just want it to restart automatically when it quits because of an error. I figured I could use runit to do this, but it seems like the runit docs mostly talk about how to convert your entire init.d to runit. I want to preserve init.d and just use runit for my one service.

I was looking at these docs.

Thanks.

EDIT: I think this is pointing in the right direction, I guess I just need to know how to make a service now.
