Unable to see the widgets

[kgilmer]

Hi! I was curious about your project so I tried running it but I don't see anything. I built and installed the executable, copied the sample config from the README into the required path. I see this when launching from a terminal:

$ dvvidget daemon
Cache directory at "/home/kgilmer/.cache/dvvidget"
Dvoty histfile at "/home/kgilmer/.cache/dvvidget/histfile"
there is a config
Cannot parse the config:
TOML parse error at line 1, column 1
  |
1 | [general]
  | ^
missing field `denote`

Go with default

(.:254710): Gtk-WARNING **: 20:17:53.602: Theme parser error: <broken file>:1:1: Error opening file /usr/share/dvvidget/style.css: No such file or directory

Any tips on resolving?

Greetings! Thanks for this GitHub issue!
I have updated some code and the README.md.

As for the style.css error. Can you please try to copy the style.css under src/ to /usr/share/dvvidget/style.css?

You can use dvvidget daemon to start the daemon.
You can then use dvvidget volume -h, dvvidget brightness -h, and dvvidget dvoty -h to see how to
use the client.

In my Hyprland config, I have:

bind = ALT,Space,exec,dvvidget dvoty toggle
bindel = , XF86AudioRaiseVolume, exec, dvvidget volume inc 5; dvvidget volume open 1
bindel = , XF86AudioLowerVolume, exec, dvvidget volume dec 5; dvvidget volume open 1
bindl = , XF86AudioMute, exec, dvvidget volume set-mute; dvvidget volume open 1
bindel = , XF86MonBrightnessDown, exec, dvvidget brightness dec 5; dvvidget brightness open 1
bindel = , XF86MonBrightnessUp, exec, dvvidget brightness inc 5; dvvidget brightness open 1

Also, the commands wpctl, and brightnessctl are the dependencies. I also recommend gvfs if you want to have the recent files search function.

Follow up if you have any further question!
