If your daemon is not functional if the hardware is not present, I'd
probably start it via a udev rule and SYSTEMD_WANTS.
Do you have an example for this please?
I don't quite understand why I can't I just name the device in the
service file. Why does it have to be so confusing. Still don't
understand the need for escaping... is there a need?
The reason is when your hardware becomes available you activate the
service.
My udev foo is a bit rusty but you can try something along the lines of...
/etc/udev/rules.d/98-shk-local.rules
SUBSYSTEM=="input", ENV{ID_INPUT_KEYBOARD}=="?*",
ENV{.INPUT_CLASS}="kbd", TAG+="systemd",
ENV{SYSTEMD_WANTS}+="shkd@%p.service"
/etc/systemd/system/shkd@.service
[Unit]
Description=Simple HotKey Daemon
[Service]
ExecStart=/usr/local/bin/shkd %I
Restart=always
[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target
