SystemD Pilot is a desktop application for managing systemd services on GNU/linux machines. The app is very lightweight and supports common tasks such as starting and stopping systemd services.
It can also show detailed status for each service.
Features: List services
Filter by running state
Start, Stop, Restart, Enable and Disable services + show status for each service
Create override configuration for any unit file using the edit button
Option for reloading systemd manager configuration (systemctl daemon-reload)
Easy search. Just start typing and the app will find relevant services
Lightweight
Available for download as deb, rpm and AppImage
Integration into GNOME desktop (libadwaita)
Made with love for the FOSS community. Please give it a try and share your thoughts.
Does it support per-user systemd services?
It will, in the next release.
100% Python, nice.
I miss the days before SystemD, it seemed simpler.
Autoexec.bat or bust!
Awesome, thank you alot.
Any chance this lands in the AUR?
I’ve not used arch for years but I’ll look into this.
I switched to linux a little over a year ago and went with MX Linux because they have great GUI tools for windows refugees like myself, and because they don’t like systemd over there they use cron jobs. Now, having switched to Nobara I’ve just installed both SystemD Pilot here, but also found KCron, a KDE Cron configuration module which allows for the same functionality as what I’m used to.
If I just want to setup a “when system starts” daemon, is there really any difference in using one over the other? I guess it’s possible to shut down services more gracefully?In any case, great job on this utility.
Services are the more standard way of doing that. They are more resilient and you could troubleshoot more easily. Glad you are happy with systemd Pilot. Feel frree to share your thoughts or ask for new features.
Really cool bro. Always loved GUI for command line utils!
Looks neat, does its job.
If you’re a power-user looking at this, you can also look at https://github.com/rgwood/systemctl-tui which is somewhat similar but seems to be more useful (for now), also showing the service logs and being easily navigable with a keyboard.
can it do mask/unmask?
Notvin this version. I’ll add that and more for the next release.
cool!
this sort of thing is exactly what we need, thanks.
This is good. We need more GUI tools to keep the noobs out of the terminal. Not only because that gives a better impression, but it also protects them from doing a command wrong and really hurting something.
What license are you offering it under?
GPL v3.
The only right choice! Thanks!
Btw add license to the repo and license info to readme
Thanks, will do.
Looks rad
Nice i will try it out.
Thanks :) Hope you find it useful
I remember there being a KCM for Plasma Settings that did this sort of thing.
Yes i think it’s called systemdGenie
