The update seems to break the extension..

edit: seems to be fixed in #17

derkrasseleo commented 2 years ago

Extension works again but this issue still persists. Do I have to autostart the tailscaled service? I thought the extension calls sudo systemctl start tailscaled anyways?

edit: apparently it doesn't

derkrasseleo commented 2 years ago

maybe check systemctl status tailcaled and if its not running do systemctl start tailscaled?

Starting the daemon should, IMHO, very much not be the job of an extension like this.

I think it should at most check the status of the daemon (along with the state; up/down) and report.

If the daemon is not running, that's what systemd is for.

That's okay, but the state of the switch is still wrong. If the deamon wasn't running in the first place, tailscaled can t be up..
