Systemd generator for timer units
Generates systemd .timer and .service units to more easily add cron-like tasks to your system.
After editing the units, the tool can install them for you: copy them into
/etc/systemd/system or $HOME/.config/systemd/user (creating the directory if
needed), run systemctl daemon-reload, and enable and start the timer. The
install step is only offered when systemctl is available; otherwise the
generated units are left in the current directory.
After editing, the tool checks the units with systemd-analyze verify (when
that command is available), so syntax errors are caught before installation.
Usage
generate-systemd-timer unit-name
# Now two editors will pop up to allow you to customize
# Afterwards you'll find unit-name.service and unit-name.timer in the current folder.
# Finally, you'll be asked whether to install, reload and enable the timer.
