## Usage ## Usage
Services and scripts don't depend on each other, except for `notifier` which is commonly used. See more about `notifier` in the next section. All scripts include hints that they can be combined (out-commented line in service files for `systemd_failure_notify@.service` for example).
Examples are given inside `usr/share/doc/system-helpers` and *man pages* are also available.

Another option is to set those inside the respective config files of another script. Let's have an example with the `check_updates` script.
Otherwise, services and scripts don't depend on each other, but have hints that they can be combined (out-commented line in service files for `systemd_failure_notify@.service` for example). ```shell
# /etc/check_updates.conf
NOTIFIER_GOTIFY_ENABLED=false
NOTIFIER_MAIL_ENABLED=true
NOTIFIER_MAIL_ADDRESS=updatemail@domain.tld
```
Examples are given inside `usr/share/doc/system-helpers` and *man pages* are also available. This will not send gotify messages for `check_updates` and send a mail to a different address `updatemail@domain.tld`.
