Can't get to the unit methods. I want to be able to stop/start and test its status.

[polymerchm]

`def is_service_active(service: str)->bool:

"""
use sdbus to check on statue of service

"""
systemd = Systemd(sdbus.sd_bus_open_system())
try:
    unit_object_path = systemd.get_unit(service)
except Exception as e:
    print(f"no such unit {e}")
    sys.exit()
unit = SystemdUnit(unit_object_path)
print(unit.description)
return True`

if name=="main":
service = "ssh.service"
print(f" is the the service {service} running? -> {is_service_active(service)}")

return the following errors:

Not sure how to actually get to the unit and its methods/properties.

Figured it all out. Nice package!!
