long press on AUX button : do "something" ?

[kimaidou]

for now, the Aux button "only " lock the screen.
It could be great to add a new rule so that a long press (2 s) on the Aux button loads a personalized pre-configured action. For example, display keyboard / run software (calendar, notes, etc.) / goes silent /etc.

You can personalise it in /etc/freesmartphone/oevents/rules.yaml

as rules.yaml is somehow limited, I suggest giving  https://projects.openmoko.org/projects/siglaunchd/ it does a lot more, though also exactly that. I use it to launch a profile changer when I click it for more than 1 second.

Can I ask how that can be done technically? Isn't the AUX key just another key press that can be bound to an illume action? How does it distinguish between a short and a long keypress?

It would be very useful if we could take advantage of short vs long keypresses.

spaetz: use rules.yaml ;) It works for me.

trigger: InputEvent?()
filters:

• HasAttr?(switch, "AUX")
• HasAttr?(event, "held")
• HasAttr?(duration, 1)

actions: Command('shr-settings "AUX menu" shr_profile.Profile shr_display.Display shr_pm.Pm')

You have more than one way to do it, as for default, it not a major enachment.

It's frameworkd-config-shr job, so changing component

[spaetz]

Actually rather than having frameworkd handle this (why should the poor thing be eresponsible for EVERYTHING), we can easily handle this with enlightenment only:

the keybindings for the power button in
[shr-themes.git] / e-wm / e-wm-config-illume-shr / e.src are:

value "action" string: "delayed_action";
value "params" string: "[0.0 syscon] [2.0 halt_now]";

and we can do the same for the AUX button, binding one action to a short press and another action (profile selection :)) to a long press. The only difficulty is that the simple lock does not seem to be available from the command line.
