NAME
dh_installsystemd - install systemd unit files
SYNOPSIS
dh_installsystemd [debhelperoptions] [--restart-after-upgrade]
[--no-stop-on-upgrade] [--no-enable] [--name=name] [unitfile...]
DESCRIPTION
dh_installsystemd is a debhelper program that is responsible for
enabling, disabling, starting, stopping and restarting systemd unit
files.
In the simple case, it finds all unit files installed by a package
(e.g. bacula-fd.service) and enables them. It is not necessary that
the machine actually runs systemd during package installation time,
enabling happens on all machines in order to be able to switch from
sysvinit to systemd and back.
For only generating blocks for specific service files, you need to pass
them as arguments, e.g. dh_installsystemd quota.service and
dh_installsystemd --name=quotarpc quotarpc.service.
FILES
debian/package.service, debian/package@.service
If this exists, it is installed into
lib/systemd/system/package.service (or
lib/systemd/system/package@.service) in the package build
directory.
debian/package.tmpfile
If this exists, it is installed into
usr/lib/tmpfiles.d/package.conf in the package build directory.
(The tmpfiles.d mechanism is currently only used by systemd.)
debian/package.target, debian/package@.target
If this exists, it is installed into
lib/systemd/system/package.target (or
lib/systemd/system/package@.target) in the package build directory.
debian/package.socket, debian/package@.socket
If this exists, it is installed into
lib/systemd/system/package.socket (or
lib/systemd/system/package@.socket) in the package build directory.
debian/package.mount
If this exists, it is installed into
lib/systemd/system/package.mount in the package build directory.
debian/package.path, debian/package@.path
If this exists, it is installed into
lib/systemd/system/package.path (or
lib/systemd/system/package@.path) in the package build directory.
debian/package.timer, debian/package@.timer
If this exists, it is installed into
lib/systemd/system/package.timer (or
lib/systemd/system/package@.timer) in the package build directory.
OPTIONS
--no-enable
Disable the service(s) on purge, but do not enable them on install.
Note that this option does not affect whether the services are
started. Please remember to also use --no-start if the service
should not be started.
--name=name
Install the service file as name.service instead of the default
filename, which is the package.service. When this parameter is
used, dh_installsystemd looks for and installs files named
debian/package.name.service instead of the usual
debian/package.service. Moreover, maintainer scripts are only
generated for units that match the given name.
--restart-after-upgrade
Do not stop the unit file until after the package upgrade has been
completed. This is the default behaviour in compat 10.
In earlier compat levels the default was to stop the unit file in
the prerm, and start it again in the postinst.
This can be useful for daemons that should not have a possibly long
downtime during upgrade. But you should make sure that the daemon
will not get confused by the package being upgraded while it's
running before using this option.
--no-restart-after-upgrade
Undo a previous --restart-after-upgrade (or the default of compat
10). If no other options are given, this will cause the service to
be stopped in the prerm script and started again in the postinst
script.
-r, --no-stop-on-upgrade, --no-restart-on-upgrade
Do not stop service on upgrade.
--no-start
Do not start the unit file after upgrades and after initial
installation (the latter is only relevant for services without a
corresponding init script).
Note that this option does not affect whether the services are
enabled. Please remember to also use --no-enable if the services
should not be enabled.
NOTES
Note that this command is not idempotent. dh_prep(1) should be called
between invocations of this command (with the same arguments).
Otherwise, it may cause multiple instances of the same text to be added
to maintainer scripts.
