A utility for using systemctl interactively via fzf.
Usage: sysz [OPTS...] [CMD] [-- ARGS...]
Select multiple units and commands using TAB.
sudo is invoked automatically, if necessary.
If only one unit is chosen, available commands will be presented
based on the state of the unit (e.g. start is only shows if active).
Use CTRL-v to run `systemctl cat <unit>` in the preview window.
OPTS:
-u, --user Only show --user units
--sys, --system Only show --system units
-s STATE, --state STATE Only show units in STATE (repeatable)
-V, --verbose Print the systemctl command
-v, --version Print the version
-h, --help Print this message
If no options are given, both system and user units are shown.
CMD:
start systemctl start <unit>
stop systemctl stop <unit>
r, restart systemctl restart <unit>
s, stat, status systemctl status <unit>
ed, edit systemctl edit <unit>
reload systemctl reload <unit>
en, enable systemctl enable <unit>
d, dis, disable systemctl disable <unit>
If no command is given, one or more can be chosen interactively.
ARGS are passed to the systemctl command for each selected unit.
History:
sysz is stored in $XDG_CACHE_HOME/sysz/history
This can be changed with the environment variable: SYSZ_HISTORY
Use CTRL-p and CTRL-n to navigate through history.
Examples:
sysz -u User units
sysz -sys -s active Active system units
sysz --user --state failed Failed user units
Examples with commands:
sysz start Start a unit
sysz --sys s Get the status of system units
sysz --user edit Edit user units
sysz s -- -n100 Show status with 100 log lines
sysz -sys -s active stop Stop an active system unit
sysz -u --state failed r Restart failed user units
