Change generated systemd file content

[aacebedo]

Hi

I ported a docker compose setup on Arion and I am facing a small issue. My containers use volumes pointing to remote nfs and iscsi directories. However Arion containers are started before the mounts have been completed. This leads to failing containers.

How can I add some "requires" attributes to systemd units generated by arion ?

This should work the same as it would in "normal" NixOS.

Something like

  services.my-service.nixos.configuration.systemd.services.my-systemd-service.requires = "foo-bar-baz.mount";

IIUC, the in-container systemd will materialize such mount units when it learns about them from the kernel. I suppose this just works; otherwise, you might have to create a service unit that polls.
