Should we be using SystemD timers for this?

Do you have an example project where we use systemd timer?

You basically need an helper executable to be run at intervals.
The ArchLinux documentation is quite good on it: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Systemd/Timers

In the last commit I created a helper executable, a service and a timer. What is unclear to me is how I can trigger the action in the notification so that the firmware page can be opened in the settings, since the helper executable only runs for a short time. Is it possible to trigger an action from another application via a notification?

Thanks to @Marukesu's idea everything works now as expected except for the notification icon:
@elementary/desktop-developers has anyone an idea why the icon is not used? |
The notification server only search for desktop files in |

@Marukesu thank you very much for your feedback! It now works as expected. |
