Allow for disabling extension #106

Open mlucool opened 4 years ago

mlucool commented 4 years ago

Thanks for the work on this!

While this may be an odd request, can we add a way to enable/disable this extension? In my case, we want to share an app-dir between users, so we plan to install this for everyone, but want to give user a way to opt in.

We could add a user preference, which may be the simplest option. We could also have this follow whatever the text editor keymap choice is. That feels cleaner, but I am not sure if its possible.

@jwkvam if I do this, will you have time to review/merge/release? I ask as it seems there are a few PRs stalled here and want to be sure this project is still active

I'm also interested in knowing what this project's outlook is. @jwkvam, I'm really grateful your work on this tool, but I get the sense that you might be too busy to maintain this, which is totally fine, and you owe us nothing. If that's true, and there is someone with the bandwidth to take over (which is not me), would you be ok with someone else maintaining the project?

benlindsay commented 4 years ago

@mlucool I would suggest starting to work on this if/when you have bandwidth for it. Worst case scenario, if @jwkvam isn't able to respond, we should eventually think about forking this project. The ability to turn the extension on and off is super useful, so your work wouldn't go to waste however this ends up going

@benlindsay Given the inactivity, did you want to fork this somewhere and maintain it?

benlindsay commented 4 years ago

I don't have the bandwidth to do that, so no, but it would be great if you or someone else could.

I submitted a PR for this (#76) over a year ago but never got a response from @jwkvam. I agree this repo no longer seems to be maintained.
