#zenity — Public Fediverse posts

#Zenity is a bit of a winner for knocking together simple UIs. For ages I've been using a wrapper script around #ytdlp which determines the screen resolution of the computer it's running on, updates yt-dlp, then fetches the video supplied as an argument and streams it to #mpv.

However that's not very friendly for folks who share the media device on which the script is available, so I wrapped it in Zenity to present a friendly UI for either playing a previously-watched video, playing a new video (by URL), presenting a list of previously-watched videos, and providing a means to delete one or all previously-watched videos.

#Truc : #Zim permet de définir des outils personnalisés pour lancer depuis un menu à peu près tout ce qu'on veut.

S'il s'agit de lancer un script donc l'exécution dure plusieurs secondes, on peut utiliser #zenity pour ajouter une petite notification graphique d'attente :

(ma_tache) | zenity \
--progress \
--auto-close \
--no-cancel \
--title="Mon titre" \
--text="Le nom de ma tache" \
--pulsate

Warnung bei voller Platte

Mit einem Shell-Skript könnt ihr die Belegung von Massenspeichern überwachen und euch warnen lassen, bevor diese zu voll werden.

Hey #AskFedi,

I like using wob (Wayland Overlay Bar - https://github.com/francma/wob) on my #Wayland-based machines (just #sway right now) for a OSD for volume and screen brightness adjustments, but I'm a little bummed that it's wayland-only.

Does anyone have a cross-"platform" solution that works on wayland and #X11?

The closest I could find is using #zenity or #yad to display a progress bar for a second, but it's not quite an OSD, and feels a bit more clunky.
