But I'm not sure if it isn't working because I don't know how to restart the launcher
If you're using pop-launcher with the pop-shell frontend, then the pop-launcher process should be spawned when you open the Launcher frontend, and the process should exit when you close the Launcher frontend. Closing and re-opening the Launcher would restart the process.
Does the launcher read from all directories automatically, or is there a "reload" step?
After removing the calc
directory from /usr/lib/pop-launcher/plugins/
, the Launcher does not show the calculator plugin next time it's opened. Adding it to ~/.local/share/pop-launcher/plugins/
, I'm seeing it not work, but /etc/pop-launcher/plugins/
does work. Can you confirm if your plugin works if you place it in one of the system-wide directories?
I'm writing my first launcher plugin. It isn't working. But I'm not sure if it isn't working because I don't know how to restart the launcher, or if I don't know where to look for logs.

If I've done something horribly wrong, how would I know (for example a .ron syntax error, or a missing bin executable)?
