--user basically gives messages from your own systemd --user services.
--system basically gives messages from PID 1, kernel, and --system
services. Those two options are not exahustive, because a priviledged
user might be able to see messages from other users, and they will not
be shown with either or both of those flags.
Instead of completing the whole line, which doesn't work, only complete
the pid, but still show the whole line so the user can see which command
was which.
Users can also let the parameter expansion sort the completion by date
instead of by pid, by setting
zstyle ':completion:*:*:systemd-coredumpctl:*' sort no
so that the zshcompsys doesn't sort the _describe function for only
systemd-coredumpctl.
This mirrors --property, and is generally useful.
New functionality is used in bash completion.
In case of zsh completion, new functionality is less useful
because of caching. Nevertheless, zsh completion for restart
is made to behave more-or-less the same as bash completion.
At least sockets can be restarted.
It is faster to use a bash built-in, then to invoke an external
program. The problem of unit names starting with a dash is solved
by prepending a space. Spaces are ignored anyway.
For zsh, replace echo "$unit", which is vulnerable to dashes,
with echo " $unit".
Adds is-failed to join is-active and is-enabled.
I grabbed this one from the todo list. Most of the functionality was
already there for is-active. I just needed to make check_one_unit take
the states to check for as an argument instead of the hardcoded
"active" and "reloading".
is-failed will return 1 if none of the units given are failed. This is
different from is-active which will return 3 if none of the units
given are active. It returns 3 with this comment:
/* According to LSB: "program is not running" */
As that does not make sense when looking for failed units I simply
chose 1 instead.
Sometimes it is better to see messages in full, and the existing
set of options didn't allow this easily. E.g. now
journalctl -f --full
will behave like
tail -f /var/log/messages
of yore.
Long option only for now, since small letters are becoming
scarce, and this doesn't feel like a capital-letter-option.
'-u' would be nice, and the above command would be spelled
journalctl -fu
