This is a button that allows to run script when toggled (on and off scripts) and to monitor status by status script.

Install this plasmoid using plasmapkg2 --install . in the plasmoid directory.

The plasmoid can by configured in the settings menu:

• On Script will execute a script (can be a full path to a script or bash snippet) when toggling from off state to on. The icon will be changed to "On" icon.
• Off Script will execute a script (can be a full path to a script or bash snippet) when toggling from on state to off. The icon will be changed to "Off" icon.
• Status Script can be used to monitor application (or the Internet connection). The script should return 0 on success (to show "On" state), something else on error (to show "Off" state)
• Check status on startup: Run once "Status script" on system startup
• Run periodically: Run "Status Script" in defined interval

• Disable On and Off scripts
• Enable Status Script on startup and to run periodically
• set interval to your needs
• Add status script ping -c 2 -q example.com

• Enable On script
• Add On script eg: sudo systemctl start docker (assuimg this command can be run without password)
• disable Off and Status scripts

When button will be pressed the script will be launched, if a service was started sucessfully the icon will stay green, otherwise the icon will go back to red.

• Enable everything :)

• On script should exit with 0, otherwise icon be change to red (test it by adding On script sleep 5; exit 1)
• Off script exit code is not taken into account
• By default plasmoid shows red (Off) icon when started, this can be easily changed: set Status script exit 0 to run once on startup

• tooltip with custom name
• tooltip or dialog with output from scripts
