Overview

service-generator

A tool to generate systemd Unit files (newthing.service)

To generate a new service file non-interactively simply call:

$ service-generator create /path/to/executable "Some description"

If you prefer a terminal UI, you can launch it with just an executable or no arguments at all:

$ service-generator create

service-monitor

A monitor for systemd Units

$ service-monitor logs

$ service-monitor services
