Loosely based upon the instructions found [here](http://asysadmin.tumblr.com/post/32941224574/running-nginx-on-windows-as-a-service). I crafted the following and it provided me with a fully working verdaccio service installation:
1. Create a directory for verdaccio
* mkdir `c:\verdaccio`
* cd `c:\verdaccio`
2. Install verdaccio locally (I ran into npm issues with global installs)
* npm install verdaccio
3. Create your `config.yaml` file in this location `(c:\verdaccio\config.yaml)`
* Place the executable (e.g. `winsw-1.9-bin.exe`) into this folder (`c:\verdaccio`) and rename it to `verdaccio-winsw.exe`
* Create a configuration file in `c:\verdaccio`, named `verdaccio-winsw.xml`
with the following configuration `xml verdaccio verdaccio verdaccio node c:\verdaccio\node_modules\verdaccio\src\lib\cli.js -c c:\verdaccio\config.yaml roll c:\verdaccio\ `.
* Install your service
*`cd c:\verdaccio`
*`verdaccio-winsw.exe install`
* Start your service
*`verdaccio-winsw.exe start`
Some of the above config is more verbose than I had expected, it appears as though 'workingdirectory'
is ignored, but other than that, this works for me and allows my verdaccio instance to
persist between restarts of the server, and also restart itself should there be any crashes of the verdaccio process.
