I can manually start Sage for web access as follows from the command

sage: notebook(interface="",open_viewer=False)


However, I would like this to happen automatically
on bootup, w/ no manual intervention required.

Is there an undocumented incantation of the sage command
that I could put in a .rc bootup script?

Thanks,

You need a startup script - the format of which depends on your operating system, not Sage. Sage itself has no way to start at boot.

Something like:


         su - sageserv /local-bins/start-sage

in a startup script will run the script 'start-sage' as a user 'sageserv'


then the script should have something like:

nohup /homes/sageserv/sage-4.4.2.alpha0-t2.math/sage /homes/sageserv/notebook.py >> /homes/sageserv/logfile.out&

which will start sage, while reading notebook.py


Exactly how you do it will depend on operating system.


That's how I did it on Solaris, though the correct way to do it on Solaris would be using the Service Management Facility (SWF). Your system might use something like that - I'm not a linux guru
