TMUX in Systemctl - LeandroTheDev/arch_linux GitHub Wiki

• Create a script to run your desired program: /home/test/start-program.sh

#!/bin/sh
./my_program

• Create a start-systemctl.sh file to be called by the systemd

• The while infinite is still necessary, because if the script ends the TMUX session will also be closed

#!/bin/sh
tmux new-session -d -s ttyname "bash -c './start-program.sh'"

sleep 3600

while true
do
   ...
   sleep 3600
done

• Create the service for systemd: sudo vim /etc/systemd/system/myprogram.service
