|
||
|
|
||
|
Go bindings to systemd. The project has several packages:
|
||
|
|
||
|
- `activation` - for writing and using socket activation from Go
|
||
|
- `dbus` - for starting/stopping/inspecting running services and units
|
||
|
- `journal` - for writing to systemd's logging service, journald
|
||
|
- `sdjournal` - for reading from journald by wrapping its C API
|
||
|
- `machine1` - for registering machines/containers with systemd
|
||
|
- `unit` - for (de)serialization and comparison of unit files
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Socket Activation
|
||
|
|
||
|
An example HTTP server using socket activation can be quickly set up by following this README on a Linux machine running systemd:

||
|
|
||
|

|
||
|
|
||
|
## Journal
|
||
|
|
||
|
Using the pure-Go `journal` package you can submit journal entries directly to systemd's journal, taking advantage of features like indexed key/value pairs for each log entry.
|
||
|
The `sdjournal` package provides read access to the journal by wrapping around journald's native C API; consequently it requires cgo and the journal headers to be available.
|
||
|
|
||
|
## D-Bus
|
||
|
|
||
|
The `dbus` package connects to the [systemd D-Bus API](http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd/dbus/) and lets you start, stop and introspect systemd units. The API docs are here:

|
|
||
|
### Debugging
|
||
|
|
||
|
Create `/etc/dbus-1/system-local.conf` that looks like this:
|
||
|
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
<!DOCTYPE busconfig PUBLIC
|
||
|
"-//freedesktop//DTD D-Bus Bus Configuration 1.0//EN"
|
||
|
"http://www.freedesktop.org/standards/dbus/1.0/busconfig.dtd">
|
||
|
<busconfig>
|
||
|
<policy user="root">
|
||
|
<allow eavesdrop="true"/>
|
||
|
<allow eavesdrop="true" send_destination="*"/>
|
||
|
</policy>
|
||
|
</busconfig>
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
## machined
|
||
|
|
||
|
The `machine1` package allows interaction with the [systemd machined D-Bus API](http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd/machined/).
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Units
|
||
|
|
||
|
The `unit` package provides various functions for working with [systemd unit files](http://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/systemd.unit.html).
