Does no more, no less, than what it should, great app.

I understand harbour apps cannot autostart, but I was thinking maybe it would be possible to be done manually with systemd. No success so far.

I created a .service file

/etc/systemd/system/batteryoverlay.service

Code:

[Unit]
Description=Start Battery Overlay

[Service]
ExecStart=/usr/bin/harbour-batteryoverlay

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target

Tried enabling it, then reboot, but it fails.
As a second attempt I created a .timer for it.

/etc/systemd/system/batteryoverlay.timer

Code:

[Unit]
Description=Start Battery Overlay

[Timer]
OnStartupSec=45

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target

After disabling the service, enabling the timer + reboot, it still fails.
Being new to systemd I'm probably missing something, but maybe someone can improve this approach.

Without trying it myself, I'd rather guess you want to invoke it as user service rather than system service.
Also, make sure it starts after UI session, either it probably fails.

hlev80, try this:

Code:

[Unit]
Description=Start Battery Overlay
After=ofono.service

[Service]
Type=simple
Environment="DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS=unix:path=/run/user/100000/dbus/user_bus_socket"
ExecStart=/usr/bin/harbour-batteryoverlay

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target

Give to this name like: overlayautostrat.service
and put it to: /lib/systemd/system
run as ROOT:

Code:

systemctl enable overlayautostrat.service

UPDATE:
Just now tested and it also not work

Thank you all!

As said, I haven't been too familiar with systemd. I looked up how to deploy a user service and it works that way.

/etc/systemd/user/batteryoverlay.service

Code:

[Unit]
Description=Start Battery Overlay

[Service]
ExecStart=/usr/bin/harbour-batteryoverlay

[Install]
WantedBy=default.target

I used a .timer as well to be safe and assumed everything it needs is started by then. (45sec is a bit long though, UI was ready in ~30)

/etc/systemd/user/batteryoverlay.timer

Code:

[Unit]
Description=Start Battery Overlay

[Timer]
OnStartupSec=45

[Install]
WantedBy=default.target

As root:
systemctl --user enable batteryoverlay.timer

if someone want here is a small package for this. It will auto enable after installation, and just reboot your phone once after installstion.
Icon for easy remove..

I guess this works without the timer already.
