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
    ;;
