Feature Request: Expose intents

Open adamlopresto opened this issue 2 years ago • 2 comments

I would love to be able to change the warmth and brightness from Tasker, by sending intents to Gentle Glow. (Or, ideally, by having Gentle Glow used as a Tasker plugin, but that's more complicated.) I know you're working on scheduling code internally, but using Tasker would give some nice extra control for those who want to get really fiddly with the settings, or want to base it on other criteria (say, using WiFi network as a proxy for location, or whatever).

Ideally, I think we'd want intents for

  • Turn off the backlight
  • Turn on the backlight to its most recent setting
  • Set a specific brightness
  • Set a specific warmth
  • A separate intent for each of the profiles

Ideally, if you get the color fading code figured out for schedules, adding a parameter to let the changes take place over a certain amount of time would be fantastic (starting now, spend the next half hour transitioning to Night mode), but that might be excessive.

At least brightness and hopefully warmth will be exposed as system properties, see #5

It would be really amazing to be able to at least switch between the presets with Tasker. I assume that this is easier to implement than a schedule system (for which you then could use Tasker) EDIT: I just saw that you are working an a schedule system... thank you very much <3 Anyway: I'd still love to use Tasker, too ;)
