# systemd-lock-handler {#module-services-systemd-lock-handler}
The `systemd-lock-handler` module provides a service that bridges
D-Bus events from `logind` to user-level systemd targets:
- `lock.target` started by `loginctl lock-session`,
- `unlock.target` started by `loginctl unlock-session` and
- `sleep.target` started by `systemctl suspend`.
You can create a user service that starts with any of these targets.
For example, to create a service for `swaylock`:
```nix
{
services.systemd-lock-handler.enable = true;
systemd.user.services.swaylock = {
description = "Screen locker for Wayland";
documentation = ["man:swaylock(1)"];
# If swaylock exits cleanly, unlock the session:
onSuccess = ["unlock.target"];
# When lock.target is stopped, stops this too:
partOf = ["lock.target"];
# Delay lock.target until this service is ready:
before = ["lock.target"];
wantedBy = ["lock.target"];
serviceConfig = {
# systemd will consider this service started when swaylock forks...
Type = "forking";
# ... and swaylock will fork only after it has locked the screen.
ExecStart = "${lib.getExe pkgs.swaylock} -f";
# If swaylock crashes, always restart it immediately:
Restart = "on-failure";
RestartSec = 0;
};
};
}
```
