Hi! Do you remember the days where people believed in rough consensus and running code? :) It was before my time here on Earth, but whatever…
tada… welcome to user services: https://git.devuan.org/WIP-init/user-services/blob/master/README.md % userservice list evolution-addressbook-factory evolution-calendar-factory evolution-source-registry evolution-user-prompter pulseaudio redshift % userservice enable evolution-user-prompter % ps aux | grep "[e]volution" martin 10495 0.0 0.0 2156 744 ? S 21:01 0:00 runsv evolution-user-prompter martin 10497 4.4 0.3 443308 53076 ? Sl 21:01 0:00 /usr/lib/evolution/evolution-user-prompter % userservice enabled evolution-user-prompter pulseaudio redshift % userservice disable evolution-user-prompter % ps aux | grep "[e]volution" % userservice enabled pulseaudio redshift And now feel free already to contribute your own services. :) I welcome merge requests. There are quite some ideas on how to improve this initial proof of concept: - Make it work out of the box with .xprofile (or how that is called). /me looking to Evilham now :) - Make it work with other desktop environments out of the box - Make it handle groups of services in a clean and simple way - Make it work with s6 alternatively (may just need replacing runsvdir) - And of course add more services, … - including any of those relevant in /usr/lib/systemd/user/ - Putting it into a package. I am willing to package it at a later point in time. When discussing this, please make sure doing so constructively. Thanks a lot to Evilham for coming up with the idea to use runit for user services and for providing the initial service directories for the four services to make Evolution work. Now let's make more out of this by the power of together… and of course enjoy using it. Thanks. -- Martin _______________________________________________ Dng mailing list Dng@lists.dyne.org https://mailinglists.dyne.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dng
