[systemd-devel] systemd --user environment

[arnaud gaboury]

systemd 216-1


I start to play with systemd/user. I understand that the user instance
does not inherit from all my environment variables listed by the
printenv command. When a variable is needed for a service, I add a
/etc/systemd/system/user@.service.d/myService.conf drop-In file with
the Environment=myVariable.
I can also edit /etc/environment, or /etc/systemd/user.conf

Is there any way to define a per user environment file somewhere in my
user home directory, so I can add variables?

I tried some hacks with no success, mainly because the home directory
will be /root (I guess so).

TY for suggestion/tips.

systemd run with --system reads config-files from /etc/systemd/system/
and equivalents (in /usr, /run, ...). If run with --user, it reads
from /etc/systemd/user/ and equivalents (/usr, /run, ...).
Additionally, --user also adds the home-directory of the user as
source: ~/.config/systemd/user/

So I guess, what you want to do is to create a file in:
  ~/.config/systemd/user/your_service.conf.d/your_drop_in_file.conf

Thanks
