Play audio notification when user input is required (captcha) #77

Open neopostmodern opened 2 years ago

neopostmodern commented 2 years ago

As the bot presumably runs in the background and possibly while the user does something else it would be good to have an option to play an audio notification when user input is required, such as for solving a captcha. Additionally it would maybe be good to bring the window into focus when user input is required.

Is there a central function called when user input is required? What userinputs are there? Captcha, what else?

neopostmodern commented 2 years ago

@vin-ni AFAIC it's only captchas for now. As outlined in https://github.com/neopostmodern/wohnungsbot/issues/59#issuecomment-799841968 the central function is setInteractiveMode. I'd suggest to use the bot middleware to listen for SET_INTERACTIVE_MODE and then play sound from there.
