Feature request : Layer

Open newlaurent62 opened this issue 5 years ago • 0 comments

Hello,

I'm currently using Ray and NSM session manager for an open source project and i need a way to navigate through jack connections and apps.

I would like to define layers. Each layer has a name. A layer is a set of jack clients with metadata (mainly window id from wmctrl) defined by a configuration file or other communication process with external apps.

This will allow to:

  • zoom on a defined set of jack clients and see only their connections
  • switch to the application clicking on the jack client name using wmctrl.

The project i'm working on in python3, creates a ray or nsm session (i will look to support ladish). It knows the applications involved in the created session So it can create a list of jack client names and their associated window title pattern for use in Catia.

Is it possible to implement ? Does it break things ? Is it easy and short to implement ?

BR, Laurent
