Otherwise we get errors like this:
CMake Error at doc/cmake_install.cmake:46 (file):

Defer parsing the version read from version.txt until it's about
to be used, in order to fix an obscure bug involving indirect
pkg_resources.
When pkg_resources are imported, they override packaging with their own
pkg_resources.extern.packaging. Depending on the system, this could
either wrap the vendored pkg_resources._vendor.packaging or system
packaging. For some reason, in the latter case the Version objects
created prior to the wrapping are incompatible with the objects created
afterwards. This causes the doc build to fail with:
```
Exception occurred:
File "/tmp/polybar/build/doc/conf.py", line 249, in run
if directive_version > version_txt:
TypeError: '>' not supported between instances of 'Version' and 'Version'
```
This happens because apparently pkg_resources are imported indirectly
somewhere between conf.py processing and running VersionDirective.
Deferring version parsing until the latter guarantees that both objects
are constructed at the same point in program flow and therefore use
the same packaging package.
Deprecates not using `polybar-msg` for IPC.

This only happens for commands and empty actions.
Non-empty actions are not immediately executed, but deferred until the
next loop iteration.
* Remove TODO about deleting runtime directory
The socket file is not deleted after socket.close() is called, only
after libuv executes the close callback.
So we can't just call rmdir because it will probably always fail.

This adds the 'send' action to the ipc module that can be used to send arbitrary text to the module:
polybar-msg action "#ipc.send.%{F#4444ff}hello%{F-}"
* feat(ipc): allow receiving arbitrary text on IPC socket
Instead of just allowing hook numbers to be executed, the user can
send arbitrary text and the IPC module will put it in the bar. The IPC
payload format is extended to accept an arbitrary string if the first
character after the module name is ':'.
polybar-msg hook test :'%{F#4444ff}hello%{F-}'
Fix#2455

* Rename toggle_visible method to match
`action_toggle_visible` -> `action_toggle_visibility`
Matches with `EVENT_TOGGLE_VISIBILITY`
* Update CHANGELOG
* Revert #2320 IPC commands
IPC commands are no longer necessary now that the actions are
implemented. Changed some method permissions as well to reflect this.
* Add logging and change action names
- `module_toggle`
- `module_show`
- `module_hide`
Delineate common actions to all modules with a `module_` prefix (for
future actions too)
* Update documentation
Before sphinx 4.0, this was the default but was changed in 4.0.
Now by default the folder structure looks like this:
man
├── 1
│ └── polybar.1
└── 5
└── polybar.5
This restores the old behavior where there weren't individual folders
for the different sections.
Fixes#2424
Ref: https://www.sphinx-doc.org/en/master/changes.html#id14
Add a config parser method which, for now, deals only with escaping the
literal backslash character and logs an error message to inform the user
of the coming change.
The error message includes a properly escaped value for the user.
As a result of introducing an escape character('\'):
- Warn the user of any unescaped backslashes, as they will not be
treated as a literal character in the future
- For now, still treat a single backslash as a literal character
- Treat two consecutive backslashes as a single properly escaped
literal backslash
Also:
- Add documentation about the escape character to polybar(5) manpage
- Add info about the escape character to changelog
- Add testcases for ParseLineKeyTest
- Add new test ParseEscapedValueTest
Resolves: First step in #2354
Improve value parsing
- Take value arg in as an rvalue reference and move parsed value back
- Remove unnecessary if statement
- Rename function
- Improve error message
- Improve function description
- Format

Each major target of polybar can now be enabled/disabled while
configuring (even polybar itself).
The cmake code specific to each target will only run if the target is
enabled.
This allows us to for example just build the documentation without
having to run all the cmake code related to compilation or having the
polybar dependencies installed (other than sphinx).
* Added .ini extension check to default config
* Added change to changelog and man page
* Added change to changelog and man page
* removed .vscode folder
* removed new lines in changelog
Searching up from the conf.py only works if it is inside the repository
and not for out-of-tree builds (because conf.py gets configured in the
build directory).
If git is not available (and it doesn't have to be when building from a
source archive) building the documentation fails because we use
`git rev-parse` to determine whether a certain version is unreleased.
We now use the version.txt file to do this check
This uses the packaging library, but this should not introduce a new
dependency because sphinx depends on setuptools which also depends on
that library.
Fixes#2309
* Adopt keep a changelog
Ref: https://keepachangelog.com/en/1.0.0/
* Add changelog to release and contributing docs
* Use H2 for automatically added Download section
The individual changelog subsections use H3 and the changelog section
uses H2, so the Download section should use the same heading
* Add already present changes to changelog
* Mention changelog issue references in CONTRIBUTING.md
Whenever a release is published, this action will create a release
archive and update the release body with a download section.
This also integrates the suggestions from #2276Resolves#2276
If we build only the documentation by invoking `cmake` on the `doc`
folder, the `SPHINX_BUILD` variable is not set and instead of
```
sphinx-build -b html ...
```
it will just execute
```
-b html ...
```
This produces an error but doesn't fail the build because apparently if
the command starts with a dash an error is non-fatal.
Fixes#2191
