Slightly related; might come in handy here: I still really like the idea behind
Petter Reinholdtsen's init-d-script, as shipped with sysvinit's sysvinit-utils
since 2013.  It's an interpreter for short and simple init.d scripts, aiming to
reduce redundant code in /etc/init.d/.  See
http://people.skolelinux.org/pere/blog/Debian_init_d_boot_script_example_for_rsyslog.html
for an instructive example; its manpage is online at
https://manpages.debian.org/init-d-script .

HTH, Bye,

Joost
