In particular, mention the contract the generator has with external ExecCondition= binaries that may be provided by desktop environments. But, also mention all the other relevant keys. In particular X-systemd-skip= is important to be documented.

<title>Description</title>
|
|
|
|
<para><filename>systemd-xdg-autostart-generator</filename> is a generator
|
|
that creates .service units for
|
|
<ulink url="https://specifications.freedesktop.org/autostart-spec/autostart-spec-latest.html">XDG autostart</ulink>
|
|
files.
|
|
This permits desktop environments to delegate startup of these applications to
|
|
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd</refentrytitle><manvolnum>1</manvolnum></citerefentry>
|
|
.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>Units created by <filename>systemd-xdg-autostart-generator</filename>
|
|
can be started by the desktop environment using <literal>xdg-desktop-autostart.target</literal>.
|
|
See
|
|
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.special</refentrytitle><manvolnum>7</manvolnum></citerefentry>
|
|
for more details.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>XDG autostart may be conditionalized using both standardized and non-standardized keys.
|
|
In order to handle these, the generator may create one or more <varname>ExecCondition=</varname> entries.
|
|
For non-standardized keys, well-known helper binaries provided by Desktop Environments are used.
|
|
All external helpers <emphasis>must</emphasis> detect their corresponding desktop environment and
|
|
<emphasis>must</emphasis> return success when run in a different environment.
|
|
This is important as all <varname>ExecCondition=</varname> directives must succeed for an application to be started.</para>
