Cava ~PAUSED~ status - waybar and sketchybar

Problem: Waybar and sketchybar show a blank cava line when no audio is playing. I want this to show a status of ~PAUSED~ to replace the 10 cava bar characters, when audio playback is idle for (1.5) seconds.

[ ] Dynamically toggle Cava ~PAUSED~ status when audio has stopped or started - Waybar
[ ] Dynamically toggle Cava ~PAUSED~ status when audio has stopped or started - Sketchybar
[ ] Clicking the cava bar resumes/pauses the current media playback source - Waybar
[ ] Clicking the cava bar resumes/pauses the current media playback source - Sketchybar

If paused I'd rather just remove the item???

aspauldingcode commented 2 months ago

No, because I'd like to use it as a play/resume button

aspauldingcode commented 2 months ago

This whole idea is still a hard maybe.

Cava is broken on swaybar and sketchybar rightnow. Wtf.

Could use json for waybar custom module in the config. Might need to modify settings of cava.conf like the sketchybar module. On sketchybar, I fixed cava, but I need to make some changes to allow playing/pausing audio.

Ok. Using osascript I could simulate play/pause button so fast for on/click.

On linux it might need a cli
