SYSTEMD-ESCAPE(1)               systemd-escape               SYSTEMD-ESCAPE(1)

NAME
       systemd-escape - Escape strings for usage in system unit names
SYNOPSIS
       systemd-escape [OPTIONS...] [STRING...]
DESCRIPTION
       systemd-escape may be used to escape strings for inclusion in systemd
       unit names. The command may be used to escape and to undo escaping of
       strings.
       The command takes any number of strings on the command line, and will
       process them individually, one after the other. It will output them
       separated by spaces to stdout.
       By default this command will escape the strings passed, unless
       --unescape is passed which results in the inverse operation being
       applied. If --mangle a special mode of escaping is applied instead,
       which assumes a string to be already escaped but will escape everything
       that appears obviously non-escaped.
OPTIONS
       The following options are understood:
       --suffix=
           Appends the specified unit type suffix to the escaped string. Takes
           one of the unit types supported by systemd, such as ".service" or
           ".mount". May not be used in conjunction with --template=,
           --unescape or --mangle.
       --template=
           Inserts the escaped strings in a unit name template. Takes a unit
           name template such as foobar@.service May not be used in
           conjunction with --suffix=, --unescape or --mangle.
       --path, -p
           When escaping or unescaping a string, assume it refers to a file
           system path. This enables special processing of the initial "/" of
           the path.
       --unescape
           Instead of escaping the specified strings, undo the escaping,
           reversing the operation. May not be used in conjunction with
           --suffix=, --template= or --mangle.
       --mangle
           Like --escape, but only escape characters that are obviously not
           escaped yet, and possibly automatically append an appropriate unit
           type suffix to the string. May not be used in conjunction with
           --suffix=, --template= or --unescape.
       -h, --help
           Print a short help text and exit.
       --version
           Print a short version string and exit.
EXAMPLES
       Escape a single string:
           $ systemd-escape 'Hallochen, Meister'
           Hall\xc3\xb6chen\x2c\x20Meister
       To undo escaping on a single string:
           $ systemd-escape -u 'Hall\xc3\xb6chen\x2c\x20Meister'
           Hallochen, Meister
       To generate the mount unit for a path:
           $ systemd-escape -p --suffix=mount "/tmp//waldi/foobar/"
           tmp-waldi-foobar.mount
       To generate instance names of three strings
           $ systemd-escape --template=systemd-nspawn@.service 'My Container 1' 'containerb' 'container/III'
           systemd-nspawn@My\x20Container\x201.service systemd-nspawn AT containerb.service systemd-nspawn AT container-III.service
EXIT STATUS
       On success, 0 is returned, a non-zero failure code otherwise.
