if you need a directory to exist (be created if necessary) on boot up (such as
a subdirectory inside a ramdisk), i configure it in /etc/tmpfiles.d/.
in my case, running weewx as user ‘weewx’, i have a directory /run/weewx/
(/run/ is a ramdisk) owned by weewx for runtime stuff like pidfiles, so have
file /etc/tmpfiles.d/weewx.conf containing
d /run/weewx 0755 weewx weewx -
