# systemd-run
# Run programs in transient scope units, service units, or path-, socket-, or timer-triggered service units.
# More information: <https://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/systemd-run.html>.
# Start a transient service:
sudo systemd-run command argument1 argument2 ...
# Start a transient service under the service manager of the current user (no privileges):
systemd-run --user command argument1 argument2 ...
# Start a transient service with a custom unit name and description:
sudo systemd-run --unit=name --description=string command argument1 argument2 ...
# Start a transient service that does not get cleaned up after it terminates with a custom environment variable:
sudo systemd-run --remain-after-exit --set-env=name=value command argument1 argument2 ...
# Start a transient timer that periodically runs its transient service (see `man systemd.time` for calendar event format):
sudo systemd-run --on-calendar=calendar_event command argument1 argument2 ...
# Share the terminal with the program (allowing interactive input/output) and make sure the execution details remain after the program exits:
systemd-run --remain-after-exit --pty executable
# Set properties (e.g. CPUQuota, MemoryMax) of the process and wait until it exits:
systemd-run --property MemoryMax=memory_in_bytes --property CPUQuota=percentage_of_CPU_time% --wait executable
# Use the program in a shell pipeline:
executable1 | systemd-run --pipe executable2 | executable3
