dh_installsystemd - install systemd unit files
<A NAME="lbAC">&nbsp;</A>
<H2>SYNOPSIS</H2>
<B>dh_installsystemd</B> [<I>debhelper options</I>] [<B>--restart-after-upgrade</B>] [<B>--no-stop-on-upgrade</B>] [<B>--no-enable</B>] [<B>--no-start</B>] [<B>--name=</B><I>name</I>] [<I>unit file</I> ...]
<A NAME="lbAD">&nbsp;</A>
<H2>DESCRIPTION</H2>
<B>dh_installsystemd</B> is a debhelper program that is responsible for
installing package maintainer supplied systemd unit files.
<P>
It also finds the service files installed by a package and generates
<I>preinst</I>, <I>postinst</I>, and <I>prerm</I> code blocks for enabling,
disabling, starting, stopping, and restarting the corresponding
systemd services, when the package is installed, updated, or
removed. These snippets are added to the maintainer scripts by
<B><A HREF="/cgi-bin/man/man2html?1+dh_installdeb">dh_installdeb</A></B>(1).
<P>
<B><A HREF="/cgi-bin/man/man2html?1+deb-systemd-helper">deb-systemd-helper</A></B>(1) is used to enable and disable systemd units,
thus 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.
<P>
<B>dh_installsystemd</B> operates on all unit files installed by a
package. For only generating blocks for specific unit files, pass them
as arguments, <TT>&quot;dh_installsystemd quota.service&quot;</TT>. Specific unit files
can be excluded from processing using the <B>-X</B> common <B><A HREF="/cgi-bin/man/man2html?1+debhelper">debhelper</A></B>(1)
option.

<H2>FILES</H2>
<DL COMPACT>
<DT id="1">debian/<I>package</I>.mount, debian/<I>package</I>.path, debian/<I>package</I>@.path, debian/<I>package</I>.service, debian/<I>package</I>@.service, debian/<I>package</I>.socket, debian/<I>package</I>@.socket, debian/<I>package</I>.target, debian/<I>package</I>@.target, debian/<I>package</I>.timer, debian/<I>package</I>@.timer<DD>
If any of those files exists, they are installed into
<I>lib/systemd/system/</I> in the package build directory.
<DT id="2">debian/<I>package</I>.tmpfile<DD>
Only used in compat 12 or earlier. In compat 13+, this file is
handled by <B><A HREF="/cgi-bin/man/man2html?1+dh_installtmpfiles">dh_installtmpfiles</A></B>(1) instead.
<P>
If this exists, it is installed into <I>usr/lib/tmpfiles.d/</I> in the
package build directory. Note that the <TT>&quot;tmpfiles.d&quot;</TT> mechanism is
currently only used by systemd.
</DL>
<A NAME="lbAF">&nbsp;</A>
<H2>OPTIONS</H2>
<DL COMPACT>
<DT id="3"><B>--no-enable</B><DD>
Disable the service(s) on purge, but do not enable them on install.
<P>
<B>Note</B> that this option does not affect whether the services are
started. Please remember to also use <B>--no-start</B> if the service
should not be started.
<DT id="4"><B>--name=</B><I>name</I><DD>
This option controls several things.
<P>
It changes the name that <B>dh_installsystemd</B> uses when it looks for
maintainer provided systemd unit files as listed in the ``<FONT SIZE="-1">FILES''</FONT>
section. As an example, <B>dh_installsystemd --name foo</B> will look for
<I>debian/package.</I>foo<I>.service</I> instead of
<I>debian/package.service</I>). These unit files are installed as <I>name.unit-extension</I> (in the example, it would be installed as
<I></I>foo<I>.service</I>).
<P>
Furthermore, if no unit files are passed explicitly as command line
arguments, <B>dh_installsystemd</B> will only act on unit files called
<I>name</I> (rather than all unit files found in the package).
<DT id="5"><B>--restart-after-upgrade</B><DD>
Do not stop the unit file until after the package upgrade has been completed.
This is the default behaviour in compat 10.
<P>
In earlier compat levels the default was to stop the unit file in the
<I>prerm</I>, and start it again in the <I>postinst</I>.
<P>
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.
<DT id="6"><B>--no-restart-after-upgrade</B><DD>
Undo a previous <B>--restart-after-upgrade</B> (or the default of compat
10). If no other options are given, this will cause the service to be
stopped in the <I>prerm</I> script and started again in the <I>postinst</I>
script.
<DT id="7"><B>-r</B>, <B>--no-stop-on-upgrade</B>, <B>--no-restart-on-upgrade</B><DD>
Do not stop service on upgrade.
<DT id="8"><B>--no-start</B><DD>
Do not start the unit file after upgrades and after initial installation (the
latter is only relevant for services without a corresponding init script).
<P>
<B>Note</B> that this option does not affect whether the services are
enabled. Please remember to also use <B>--no-enable</B> if the services
should not be enabled.
<DT id="9"><B>unit file</B> ...<DD>
Only process and generate maintscripts for the installed unit files
with the (base)name <I>unit file</I>.
<P>
Note: <B>dh_installsystemd</B> will still install unit files from
<I>debian/</I> but it will not generate any maintscripts for them unless
they are explicitly listed in <B>unit file</B> ...

<H2>NOTES</H2>
This command is not idempotent. <B><A HREF="/cgi-bin/man/man2html?1+dh_prep">dh_prep</A></B>(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.
