I'm assuming you mean a service to run on Guix System, yes?

There is a section in the manual on this

  https://guix.gnu.org/manual/en/html_node/Defining-Services.html

which has a couple examples. You'll probably want to make a shepherd
service (shepherd is Guix System's services manager). You can also read
the code for existing services in gnu/services/*.scm. I'm not very
familiar with services so unfortunately I can't point you at any similar
ones. Best of luck!
