## SLEEP-INHIBITOR
[](https://pypi.org/project/sleep-inhibitor/)
[](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/sleep-inhibitor/)
This is a simple program to inhibit sleep/suspend on
[systemd](https://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd/) based
Linux systems (or on compatible systems running
[elogind](https://github.com/elogind/elogind)). Some examples of the
default plugins provided are:
1. Plugin to inhibit sleep while any audio is playing.
2. Plugins to inhibit sleep while [Plex](https://plex.tv/) or
[Jellyfin](https://jellyfin.org/) media server is serving media
server is serving content.
3. Plugin to inhibit sleep while a specified process is running. I
use this to prevent sleep while my home backup is running.
You can also create your own custom plugins. They are extremely trivial
to create as can be seen in the [provided
examples](sleep_inhibitor/plugins).
A plugin can be created in shell script or any programming language. It
must simply return an exit code to indicate whether the system should can be
slept/suspended, or not. _Sleep-inhibitor_ runs each plugin at the
period you specify (or the default 5 minutes) and checks the result to
inhibit sleep or not until at least the next check period.
The latest version of this document and code is available at
https://github.com/bulletmark/sleep-inhibitor.
:warning: **Warning**: Unfortunately this program is currently somewhat
handicapped due to [this systemd
issue](https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues/14812). Until this
issue is addressed, your system may not automatically [re-]suspend if
still idle after it has been inhibited, even though _sleep-inhibitor_
has removed the inhibit.
## Motivation
When looking for a solution for this issue I found the
[autosuspend](https://autosuspend.readthedocs.io/en/3.0/index.html)
package but, in addition to providing plugins, that package also
implements the complete sleep, resume, and wakeup logic. I also found
the configuration and documentation confusing. I am happy with and
prefer to use the native Linux sleep systems and I desired a simpler
more lightweight approach that merely provided the ability to inhibit
these sleep systems for some special situations.
1. On Linux desktop systems, I prefer to use the standard GNOME power
management GUI tools to automatically manage sleep/suspend (via
systemd). All the major DE's provide similar GUI tools.
2. On Linux server systems, I prefer to use standard
[systemd](https://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd/) power
management to manage sleep/suspend, configured via
[`logind.conf`](https://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/logind.conf.html)
and
[`sleep.conf`](https://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/systemd-sleep.conf.html).
These native approaches work well, and are easy to configure.
_Sleep-inhibitor_ assumes you are using the native systemd based sleep
facilities and merely adds the ability to add/create tiny plugins to
inhibit sleep for specified conditions. _Sleep-inhibitor_ uses
[`systemd-inhibit`](https://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/systemd-inhibit.html)
to execute the sleep inhibition lock.
## Installation
[Arch](https://www.archlinux.org/) users can just install
[_sleep-inhibitor_ from the
AUR](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/sleep-inhibitor) then skip to
the next Configuration section.
Python 3.7 or later is required. The 3rd party ruamel.yaml package is
also required. Note [_sleep-inhibitor_ is on
PyPI](https://pypi.org/project/sleep-inhibitor/) so just ensure that
[`pipx`](https://pypa.github.io/pipx/) is installed then:
To install:
$ sudo PIPX_HOME=/opt/pipx PIPX_BIN_DIR=/usr/bin pipx install sleep-inhibitor
To upgrade:
$ sudo PIPX_HOME=/opt/pipx PIPX_BIN_DIR=/usr/bin pipx upgrade sleep-inhibitor
To remove:
$ sudo PIPX_HOME=/opt/pipx PIPX_BIN_DIR=/usr/bin pipx uninstall sleep-inhibitor
Some plugins require other software to be installed. E.g. If you use the
[`plex-media-server`](sleep_inhibitor/plugins/plex-media-server)
or
[`jellyfin-server`](sleep_inhibitor/plugins/jellyfin-server)
plugins then you must install [`curl`](https://curl.se/).
## Configuration
To start, copy the sample
[`sleep-inhibitor.conf`](sleep_inhibitor/sleep-inhibitor.conf)
configuration file to `/etc/sleep-inhibitor.conf` and then edit the
sample settings in that target file to add/configure plugins to your
requirements. The instructions and a description of all configuration
options are fully documented in the [sample configuration
file](sleep_inhibitor/sleep-inhibitor.conf).
$ sudo cp "$(sleep-inhibitor -P)/sleep-inhibitor.conf" /etc
$ sudoedit /etc/sleep-inhibitor.conf
## Automatic Startup as systemd Service
If you installed from source or via `pip` then copy the included
[`sleep-inhibitor.service`](sleep-/sleep-inhibitor.service)
to `/etc/systemd/system/` (note that [Arch](https://www.archlinux.org/)
users who installed from
[AUR](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/sleep-inhibitor) can skip this
first step):
$ sudo cp "$(sleep-inhibitor -P)/sleep-inhibitor.service" /etc/systemd/system/
Start sleep-indicator and enable it to automatically start at reboot with:
$ sudo systemctl enable --now sleep-inhibitor
If you change the configuration file then restart with:
$ sudo systemctl restart sleep-inhibitor
To see status and logs:
$ systemctl status sleep-inhibitor
$ journalctl -u sleep-inhibitor
## Plugins
To use the [standard
plugins](sleep_inhibitor/plugins)
distributed with this package just specify the plugin name (i.e. the
file name) as the `path` parameter in the [configuration
file](sleep_inhibitor/sleep-inhibitor.conf).
To use your own custom plugins, just specify the absolute path to that
plugin. E.g. you can put your custom plugin at `/home/user/bin/myplugin`
and just specify that full path in the [configuration
file](sleep_inhibitor/sleep-inhibitor.conf).
A plugin can be any executable script/program which simply returns exit
code 254 to inhibit suspend, or anything else (usually 0 of course) to
not suspend. They can be very trivial to create as the provided [example
plugins](sleep_inhibitor/plugins)
demonstrate. A plugin can be created in any language you prefer such as
Shell, Python, Ruby, C/C++, etc.
The plugin does not normally receive any arguments although you can
choose to specify arbitrary arguments to any plugin via the configuration
file, e.g. a sensitive token/password as the example
[`plex-media-server`](sleep_inhibitor/plugins/plex-media-server)
plugin requires, or the process name for the example
[`is-process-running`](sleep_inhibitor/plugins/is-process-running)
plugin.
## Command Line Usage
Type `sleep-inhibitor -h` to view the usage summary:
```
usage: sleep-inhibitor [-h] [-c CONFIG] [-p PLUGIN_DIR] [-P]

options:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
-c CONFIG, --config CONFIG
alternative configuration file
-p PLUGIN_DIR, --plugin-dir PLUGIN_DIR
alternative plugin dir
-P, --package-dir just show directory where sample conf/service files,
and default plugins can be found
```
