Feature request: Custom icons for succesful live reload and backup mode #26

Closed caph1993 closed 4 months ago

caph1993 commented 4 months ago

I would like to be able to see in the tray icon, without clicking it, whether a livereload triggered from the keyboard after modifying the source file worked-out or not. Any of these two, could do the job, but I think none of them are currently implemented:

  1. Custom icon if the configuration is using the backup mode.
  2. Custom quick 1-second icon if the configuration was reloaded succesfully.
  3. (or both :) )

Custom icon if the configuration is using the backup mode.

What is backup mode?

Custom quick 1-second icon if the configuration was reloaded succesfully.

Sounds good. kanata already sends via tcp info on livereload, we just need to use it https://github.com/jtroo/kanata/blob/620d82fa04255b34750e9b6b1459381bcec0dd1d/tcp_protocol/src/lib.rs#L9

When the configuration file has a syntax error, kanata uses the last configuration that worked. This is what I meant by "backup".

currently, there's no event from kanata tcp server when configuration reload fails, so first to detect failed config reload need to add this to kanata first
