* Add toggle_visible action
* Add set_visible and set_invisible actions
* 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
* module: Implement proof of concept action router
Action implementation inside module becomes much cleaner because each
module just registers action names together with a callback (pointer to
member function) and the action router does the rest.
* Make input function final
This forces all modules to use the action router
* modules: Catch exceptions in action handlers
* Use action router for all modules
* Use action_ prefix for function names
The mpd module's 'stop' action overwrote the base module's stop function
which caused difficult to debug behavior.
To prevent this in the future we now prefix each function that is
responsible for an action with 'action_'
* Cleanup
* actions: Throw exception when re-registering action
Action names are unique inside modules. Unfortunately there is no way to
ensure this statically, the next best thing is to crash the module and
let the user know that this is a bug.
* Formatting
* actions: Ignore data for actions without data
This is the same behavior as before.
* action_router: Write tests
Modules can now also be shown and hidden using ipc commands:
$ polybar-msg [-p PID] cmd hide.mymodule # Hides module mymodule
$ polybar-msg [-p PID] cmd show.mymodule # Shows module mymodule
$ polybar-msg [-p PID] cmd toggle.mymodule # Toggles visibility of mymodule
* Hopefully implement visibility checking
* Implement hide command
* Implement `show` and `toggle` commands
* Refactor and add some logging
* Run style checks and update CHANGELOG
* Get around unused parameter warnings
* Change `set_visible` to return nothing
* Make errors more informative

* Update bar when changing module visibility
- Called in the module to maintain dependence on the signal emitter
- Update CHANGELOG to make changes more verbose
* wrong var
* Update include/modules/unsupported.hpp

* refactor(color): Use enum class for color type
* Add testcases for tag parser
* Make tag parser a pull-style parser
Being able to parse single elements at a time gives us more fine-grained
error messages, we can also parse as much as possible and only stop
after an exception.
* fix(color): Parser did not check for invalid chars
* tag parser: First full implementation
* tag parser: Fix remaining failing tests
* tag parser: Replace old parser
* tag parser: Treat alignment as formatting tag
Makes the structure less complex and the alignment tags really are
formatting tags, they are structurally no different from the %{R} tag.
* tag parser: Cleanup type definitions
All type definitions for tags now live in tags/types.hpp, the parser.hpp
only contains the definitions necessary for actually calling the parser,
this shouldn't be included in many places (only places that actually do
parsing). But many places need the definitions for the tags themselves.
* Rename components/parser to tags/dispatch
* tag parser: Cleanup
* Add changelog
The change in #2270 accidentally broke how we access module types.
module<Impl>::TYPE always points to the module superclass and it thus
accesses its empty TYPE field.
This mainly broke legacy action handling.
Ref #2270
Only modules can now be action handlers.
This also slightly simplifies the controller because we don't need to
keep track of input handlers, we can just use the module list.
This allows us to identify module by their type and it is also better to
store the module type as part of the module instead of having it
hardcoded in factory.hpp
Action strings now have the form '#MODULE#ACTION'
For example to trigger the action 'toggle' in the 'module/date' module
one would now use '%{A1:#date#toggle:}'
With this action strings can now be uniquely assigned to one module.
Fixes#1172
Any timer_module based module would sleep for the set interval and then
continue running. Depending on the start time of polybar this
sleep pattern might not be aligned, which causes such modules to always
update in a shifted manner.
Consider the date module as an example. If the update interval is set to
60 seconds and polybar was started at 13:37:37, polybar would update the
clock at 13:38:37, 13:39:37 and so on.
To make matters worse, if a module would perform lengthy checks this
interval might drift over time, causing even more inconsistent updating.
This patch extends the base module with a sleep_until method that calls
the corresponding function on the sleephandler. Additionally the
timer_module is extended to compute the remaining time until the next
interval passes and sleep accordingly.
Closes#2064

A warning implies something went wrong and (possibly) the user should do
something about it. However, warnings are not always used this way.
For example:
* When a fallback value for a `${..}` reference is used, this shouldn't
produce a warning (or notice) since using fallbacks is not something
bad.
* pulse telling you that it uses the default sink because no sink was
specified also does not warrant a warning (even notice may be too
high).
* Whenever polybar shuts down it produces a "Termination signal
received..." warning. Since there isn't a more proper way to shut down
polybar, it should not produce a warning. Same argument for a
`screenchange-reload`
The %{PR} tag is introduced for this. It resets all colors as well as
the activation of the underline and overline and font.
This has become necessary because we don't track what raw tags a user
injects into the formatting string and otherwise their raw tags could
bleed through.
This doesn't touch action tags because even before raw action tags
weren't being tracked. Action tags also have the requirement that they
have to be used in pairs, so closing them prematurely could break things
(for example with click actions for the entire bar)
This removes the spacing tinkering when parsing format specs.
The following example uses the old behavoir:
format-test = <label-foo> <label-bar>
format-breaks = <label-foo><label-bar>/<bar-test>
`format-test` would replace all occurences of ' ' with the
a space string with defined `spacing` as its width. `format-breaks` would
not validate as the tags where split with ' ' as delimiter.
All that nonsense has been removed and each tag is extracted as is.
The `spacing` parameter can still be used to apply N extra whitespaces
between the tags, but it is now 0 by default.
