generate-systemd-timer 2.0.0

Generate a systemd unit.timer and unit.service pair

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.

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.
