userlaunch file created #131

For issue: #130

Scope of the PR: To write the configuration file for the daemon, so that it can be started automatically by the launch_daemon when the system boots up, or when the daemon has closed/crashed.

humdingerb commented 2 years ago

This would work if there were an autostart setting in a setting file of the daemon. But AFAIK, the daemon has no settings. I don't know if we should add a setting to deactivate all notifications in the Calendar main app in the future. Anyway, for now a simple "launch" with the path to the daemon should work.

harshit-sharma-gits commented 2 years ago

Understood. The configuration file should look like this:

service x-vnd.CalendarDaemon { 
    launch path/to/daemon/
    no_safemode
    legacy
}

But I wonder what path/to/daemon/ should be?

humdingerb commented 2 years ago

That depends on where the daemon ends up when creating the package. Currently, the main app sits directly in /system/apps/. We wouldn't want to have the daemon there, I think. Maybe we should have it in /system/servers/ ?

I agree with putting the daemon in /system/servers/

humdingerb commented 2 years ago

That should work.
