Profile loading from `scc-daemon`

[cmitu]

Hello @Ryochan7,

I'm trying to start scc-daemon in the background (no GUI whatsoever) with a certain profile. According to the scc-daemon help, I need to pass the profile name as an argument, followed by start/debug. However, even if I have the required profiles copied into $HOME/.config/scc/profiles, no loading of the profile even happens:

Is the profile selection functionality implemented (in scc-daemon) or the profile is supposed to be loaded into the daemon from the UI ?

I'm using Python 3.11.2, from Debian Bookworm, on a Raspberry Pi 4 (an ARM system).

OK, after some experimentation, the profile argument expects the full path to the .sccprofile file. So instead of:

./scripts/scc-daemon 'XBox Controller' start

there should be something like:

./scripts/scc-daemon "/home/user/.config/scc/profiles/XBox Controller.sccprofile" start
