Reanimate gnome-shell-extensions-mediaplayer for gnome 3.34 #27

Closed ghost closed 4 years ago

Hello.

The gnome-shell-extensions-mediaplayer project is in the archive and I can’t leave the issue there, so I give a request here.

I understand that you are tired of supporting gnome-shell-extensions-mediaplayer, but I want to ask you to reanimate it for gnome 3.34.

No doubt gnome-shell-extension-mpris-indicator-button is a good plugin, but sometimes gnome-shell-extensions-mediaplayer does exactly what need.

I am ashamed to ask you to do this, but if I knew javascript and GJS well, I would do it myself.

Then learn it. No one taught me anything. All I know about javascript and GJS is though a combination of Googling stuff, looking at other's source code and trial and error.

For general JavaScript docs a good source is https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript

GJS really doesn't have any good complete docs that I know of. I generally just use the docs for the Python bindings as a reference and from there a lot of trial and error. For the most part things work about the same though. Basically you just have to allow for js syntax and convention. For example None in Python is basically null in JavaScript and so on.
