Copy your script to:
/lib/systemd/system-sleep/sleep_mode
You will need to use sudo powers. After copying flag it as executable:
sudo chmod +x /lib/systemd/system-sleep/sleep_mode
Additionally change all occurrences of:
echo "%s
to:
echo "s
The percent sign is unnecessary.
The existing date command is OK:
date +%s >> /tmp/suspend_time.txt
However it is formatted as number of seconds since January 1, 1970 which isn’t the most readable date format.
case statement
The case statement can be changed:
case $1/$2 in
pre/*)
echo "$0: Going to $2..."
# Place your pre suspend commands here, or `exit 0` if no pre suspend action required
;;
post/*)
echo "$0: Waking up from $2..."
# Place your post suspend (resume) commands here, or `exit 0` if no pre suspend action required
;;
