TimerRunnner

TimerRunner

Note: This plugin is stil in development.

TODO

• Support specific time for timer (currently only durations like 5 minutes are supported)
• Support 24/12 hour formats(am/pm)
• Make timers editable
• Deb/Rpm build
• Documentation
• Publish on KRunner store

If you have any other feature ideas feel free to let me know :-).

This is a KRunner plugin written in C++ and Qt which uses the DBus API. It is based on a test class of the official KRunner project. More information and the advantages of DBus.

Installation

Required Dependencies

sudo apt install cmake extra-cmake-modules build-essential libkf5runner-dev

sudo zypper install cmake extra-cmake-modules libQt5Core5 krunner-devel

sudo dnf install cmake extra-cmake-modules kf5-krunner-devel

sudo pacman -S cmake extra-cmake-modules

Build instructions

cd /path/to/TimerRunner
mkdir build
cd build
cmake ..
make
make install
kquitapp5 krunner 2> /dev/null; kstart5 --windowclass krunner krunner > /dev/null 2>&1 &

The make install command installs the config file. You have to start the executable manually: ./build/bin/timerrunner or you can start the app using your IDE and for example a debugger.

If you want to install the app you have to configure your project differently (cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release ..). With this the make install command will place the executable in the ~/.config/autostart-scripts/ folder and the build is optimized.
