Systemd/用戶服務

← Back to systemd

Systemd supports running a separate instance of systemd for a given user, allowing the user to control their own services. See here for more information: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Systemd/User

In NixOS, a user service can be expressed with systemd.user.services.<name>, as documented here: https://search.nixos.org/options?query=systemd.user.services

This may be useful if you want a user to be able to start, stop, and restart their own instance of a service without needing to make the user a sudoer.

Here is an example:

systemd.user.services.my-cool-user-service = {
  enable = true;
  after = [ "network.target" ];
  wantedBy = [ "default.target" ];
  description = "My Cool User Service";
  serviceConfig = {
      Type = "simple";
      ExecStart = ''/my/cool/user/service'';
  };
};

By default, user services will be stopped when the user logs out and will start again when the user logs back in due to us setting wantedBy = [ "default.target" ] in the example.

註銷後保持用戶服務運行

If you need a user service to stay running after a user logs out, you need to enable "lingering" by setting users.users.<username>.linger = true;

You'll also likely want to change to wantedBy = [ "multi-user.target" ]; so the service starts at boot time.

為特定用戶啟用服務

By default, enabling a user service enables it for every user for which systemd spawns a service manager. If you wish for the service to be run only for specific users (say, UserA and UserB), use ConditionUser (man 5 systemd.unit):

systemd.user.services.my-cool-user-service = {
  unitConfig.ConditionUser = "UserA|UserB";
};

Likewise, you can also disable a service for a specific user:

systemd.user.services.my-cool-user-service = {
  unitConfig.ConditionUser = "!root";
};

用法

要與用戶相關的 systemd 服務交互，請在 systemctl 命令中使用 --user 標誌。例如，要檢查用戶服務的狀態：

 $ systemctl --user status my-cool-user-service

要查看特定用戶服務的日誌，請使用 journalctl 和 --user-unit 選項：

 $ journalctl --user-unit my-cool-user-service

列出所有活躍用戶單位：

 $ systemctl --user list-units
