How to do `uairctl fetch` without `format` (to use active format) #16

Closed THOUSAND-SKY closed 11 months ago

THOUSAND-SKY commented 11 months ago

I'm trying to do uairctl fetch but keep the session format config the same as in the config file, but is that not possible? Because I'd like to have different states with different formats, but fetch it once.

The fetch command was implemented with intention to fetch timer details, like remaining time and mainly timer state(paused or resumed) at any point of time. Can you tell me about your use case? Since, if you need multiple synchronized timers, uairctl listen may cover your needs.

I'm using a gnome extension to put text on the status bar, but the extension only takes in input from programs that actually exit, not from programs that stay running and continuously output.

Implemented with commit be7d23b. Please do note that the implementation depends on the fetch implementation which was somewhat buggy. I'll fix that before the next release.
