I'd would like to have the option "sleep" and "shutdown", because both is useful.
Hello. I would like to work on this issue. I am a first time contributor!
Hello Fanis, thank you for this kind offer.
Welcome to the project. Please do not hesitate to ask questions. Your solution don't need to be perfect.
Do you have a solution in mind? I am not very deep into that issue here and don't have an idea.
I am a student at Athens University of Business and Economics (AUEB). My skills include the basic of programming, but I am eager to learn. I have an assignment for one of my subjects and it is to make our first contribution to an open source project. I searched for projects the welcome and accept first time contributors and I thought that it is a good start for me, seeing the label of (good first issue) on some issues and also seeing that your responses were friendly. I am not sure about how to resolve the issue ,wet, but I will work on it the following days. Hope I can also provide some help and value to the project.
Thank you for your feedback. Are you also a user of Back In Time? It makes contributing harder if you don't know the application.
Do you know about unit tests?
Let me suggest some more issues:
EditUserCallback
dialog class. Remove it and replace its behavior with the systems default editor.You can review PR #1730
I did not knew about Back in Time before searching for OSS projects to contribute for my uni assignment. I know some things about unit test. I have run some unit tests on my personal projects.
I just created a pull request, I would be very happy if you gave me some feedback.
I maybe also take a look at the other issues you suggested.
My workflow is generally to run BiT after a work session, and it would be great if I could chose the kind of shutdown which got executed automatically. I'm on KDE Plasma, and I see from
https://github.com/bit-team/backintime/blob/29e874f5080f7cf85c8297ea807cb8070a427c10/common/tools.py#L1541
that I could hard code the desired behaviour in the source really very easily, but it would be great if there was an option to sleep instead of shutdown in environments which support it.
