are there any Scripts packaged like the run-one-* here: http://blog.dustinkirkland.com/2013/09/introducing-run-one-constantly-run-on...

Well, you can do {run-one-constantly, run-one-until-{success,failure}} with systemd units today, as it the unit files provide for restart semantics - and systemd can be run as user.
I would not be surprised if the rest is replicatable with units too, after all, systemd has some cron-ish functionality already I hear.
Combine that with systemd-run to create units on the fly... you see where this is going ;)
True for "root" or other "privileged" users with expirience. But for the mainstay user? -- I'd say systemd is a bit like artillery for sparrows. -- Possible maybe, but not the ideal tool. No, the 'fun' of these scripts is the point that even a non-privileged (e.g. guest) user can use them. Read the article carefully, also the linked 'prior' in the series. They are the EASY way to do such things without having to script it by yourself. Esp. for newbies a great help, less error prone that way. - Yamaban. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+owner@opensuse.org
