This unit is neutral, it doesn't distinguish between e.g. file and dirs,
just counting items. Useful in e.g. notifications of batch rename jobs.
CCBUG: 422098
This implements a new JobViewV3 which uses extensible variant maps rather than individual function calls,
allowing for compression of calls and extensibility.
The new API uses infoMessage correctly as a state message, e.g. "Connecting to host" rather than mixing it with the "Copying..." heading.
It also supports an "immediate" flag that the caller can use to indicate progress should be immediately shown,
so in cases where the user is likely to want to use the file afterwards (e.g. download through p-b-i or receiving a file
through KDE Connect) a job popup is shown even for small/short transfers.
Differential Revision: https://phabricator.kde.org/D23293
* Use index(n, m, parent) instead of parent.child(n, m)
* Update unity count when job is closed without stopping it first
* Iterate whole dataChanged range [topLeft, bottomRight] when group is resolved
* Generate roleNames from meta object
* Use checkIndex()
* Increase default timeout for notifications with thumbnail
* Improved keyboard nav, support Home/End, let Return open thumbnail
It is supposed to broadcast application job progress to multiple interested parties.
However, effectively it was just plasmashell. Cut the middleman, including its never finished and unused UI,
and talk to plasmashell directly.
The applicationjobs dataengine is adjusted to use the new infrastructure instead.
Since it works only in the same process now, Unity launcher API is used to at least broadcast basic
application progress information for use in e.g. Latte Dock.
Also, introduce JobViewServerV2 and JobViewV3 APIs which are using desktop entries for identification rather
than application names, and more importantly are extensible using a QVariantMap hints, so adding new
fields in the future should be significantly less painful with Frameworks, Applications, and Plasma all having
their own release schedule. :)
- Rework compact representation animations a bit
For some reason they often got stuck
- Implement do not disturb mode for applications
- Add fallback timeout to ensure notifications eventually timeout
Otherwise when disabling dnd mode you will get spammed
and we would also keep apps running indefinitely waiting for the notification to close
- Install plasmanotifyrc with some sane defaults
So far only lets Spectacle show its screenshot notifications in dnd mode
- Introduce Closable role rather than hardcoding that behavior everywhere in the view
- Better app identification/grouping for jobs
- Be more lenient about app identification (firefox will match Firefox, too)
- Cleanups
- Add basic do not disturb mode
Can set a time until it enabled, persisted across reboots
Whitelist for apps missing right not
Inhibition API not wired up yet
- d-pointer JobDetails
- Use KFilePlacesModel for prettier destUrl reporting "Copying to Home"
- Expose default action in history as button
- Improved right-to-left language support
- Let NotificationServer just lurk (without registering a service)
- Catch when plasmoid is deleted and stick to another one
- Cleanup, pimpl NotificationServer and Notification for export
- Wire the old dataengine up to use it for compat:
it shows notifications but is otherwise pretty broken right now
- Start writing kconfigxt and Settings code (no real code yet)
- Add a Inhibition DBus interface (no actual server-side code yet)
- Group notifications by application
Pretty much tasks grouping model from libtaskmanager slightly adjusted
- Let widget take full height when expanded in vertical panel "side bar usecase"
- Fix bugs here and there
- Notification action buttons
- Custom icon pixmaps in notifications
- Popup handling
- Notification urgency (low isn't shown as popup TBD, critical always no matter what)
- History stuff (only expired notifications end up there, none that were closed or revoked)
- Text selection and copy for body text
- Basic tray icon support
and many other things
Application jobs are shown as part of regular notifications:
- They show up as little popup that can be hidden in the history
- When finished progress popup turns into a notification
There's still some glitches and missing features, notably
- Screenshot thumbnails
- "Open" functionality for finished jobs
- History layout
- code cleanup
- and basically every configuration option
