I run it like this:

ERL_LIBS=deps erl -pa ebin -run jammer

which brings me to the prompt where I do jammer:jam().

I want a supervisor of some kind to make sure the thing is always running.

I've got a start function which starts everything as a suprvisor would:

-module(jammer).
.
.
.
      start() ->
          io:format("shell start jammer~n"),
          application:load(jammer),
          application:ensure_all_started(jammer),
          %start the thing indicated in the app src file mod line
          % application:start(jammer).
          jammer_sup:start_link().

          jam() -> 
.
.
.
            listenLoop().

listenLoop runs forever, its pulling from a queue, using rabbitmq amqp, which is a dependent module and it has its own supervisor from the dependent module's own startup code.

My own supervisor starts my own dependent service like this:

start_link() ->
    supervisor:start_link({local, ?SERVER}, ?MODULE, []).

init([]) ->
    Couch_Jammer = {pg_couch,
             {pg_couch, start_link, []},
             permanent,2000,worker, [pg_couch]},

    {ok, {{one_for_one, 10, 3600}, [Couch_Jammer]}}.
    
    

Here's my app.src

zup.app.src:

{application, jammer,
 [
  {description, ""},
  {vsn, "1"},
  {registered, []},
  {modules, [
             jammer
            ]},
  {applications, [
                  kernel,
                  stdlib,
                  couchbeam
                 ]},
  {mod, { jammer_app, []}}
 ]}.
