Is there a command to restart computer into safe mode?

I would like to know if there is a command that could be written in the command line to restart the computer and make it boot in safe mode?

If there isn't a command like this, is there any other way to do it?

I would like the process to be fully automated after launching the command.

    This will set the safemode switch: 

    bcdedit /set {current} safeboot minimal

    with networking:

    bcdedit /set {current} safeboot network

    then reboot the machine with

    shutdown /r

    to put back in normal mode via dos:

    bcdedit /deletevalue {current} safeboot
