Subject: Re: How to create a service for contents of arbitrary file
Date: Wed, 07 Apr 2021 07:12:43 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <5F18EF49-1BC9-49E3-AEC7-21B7C8361F52@lepiller.eu> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <87a6qag2dh.fsf@disroot.org>

There's special-files-service-type described here: http://guix.gnu.org/manual/devel/en/html_node/Base-Services.html#Base-Services

However, I'm not sure it will work in /sys. I guess you'll have to try and report back :)

HTH!
