The newly added Mullvad exit nodes allow a regular VPN with Tailscale.
Since there are a LOT of exit nodes to choose from, it currently fills the whole screen with exit nodes and doesn't display all of them due to this behavior.

It would be nice to have those nodes sorted per country so that it would look like
Network devices -> my devices -> own nodes -> device xy
Network devices -> my devices -> Mullvad nodes -> DE -> device de-xy*

This would allow operating the Mullvad nodes via tailscale-systray.

Thanks again for this project.

I would like to package this for NixOS. Could you please add version information and/or tagged releases?

Relevant: #10.

I never see any "services" in the systray, though some are available from my machine. How do we know a peer being displayed in status with surrounding () means it's a service? It seems to be enough not to have a proper DNS name for a peer (though I'm not sure what would cause that either).

First off, thank you for writing this!

I'd love to see either releases or maybe even distro packages. Seems like the former is a lighter lift since it can all be done with GitHub actions.

It'd be nice to support fast user switching like the official clients.

I have more than 30 tailscale machines, the first time I open the "My Devices" menu, the systray suddenly closed (entirely, but program not exited)

the weird thing is, the systray are still shown if I show the taskbar panel anywhere but bottom

I come with conclusion that this may dash-to-panel error, or it is systray error

How i debug:

may the solution are(?):

1. Scrollable list
2. Horizontally expanded menu

Edit:

1. It may because of redraw that triggered by the main endless loop (sleep 10s)

Hey!! Thanks for this app. I've followed the instructions, but I cannot run the app. Can you help? Am on Ubuntu 22.04 LTS 64-bit. Thanks!

Maybe it's a noob question, but how can I keep the tray running after closing the terminal where I run ./tailscale-systray?

I tried with ./tailscale-systray -d as I would have done with a docker container but it didn't work, is there a specific command for go programs to "demonize" them?

When running tailscale-systray when the daemon is not running it appears as normal. Clicking "Connect" in the menu prompts me to start the daemon, so I ran systemctl start tailscaled. Once the daemon starts the systray program crashes.

Running it in the terminal:

$ tailscale-systray 
panic: runtime error: index out of range [0] with length 0

goroutine 23 [running]:
main.onReady.func4()
github.com/mattn/tailscale-systray/main.go:155 +0x885
created by main.onReady
github.com/mattn/tailscale-systray/main.go:121 +0x43d

Running tailscale status in the terminal:

Versions

• Tailscale 1.20.4
• tailscale-systray on git 6434789
• KDE Plasma 5.24.1
• Arch Linux (with kernel 5.16.10-zen)

Please add an option to run tailscale up with --accept-routes.

Thanks for the project. Can you please add a license to the repo?

Edit: I just noticed MIT is mentioned in the Readme. I am going to close this for now.

if using tailscale client built from source (or tailscale-git from archlinux repo), you may get a message:

% tailscale ip -4
Warning: client version "1.17.12-tb382161fe" != tailscaled server version "1.17.8-t5d6198ade"
100.xxx.xxx.xxx

The server warning message should be ignored so the IP can be properly output in

Hi there,

Thank you for writing this app, it's very useful. I only have one question: anyway to change the icon?

Cheers!

Trying to build the code with go build I get:

Using Go 1.19.2 in Linux

normally one would have to start tailscale like so, in order to choose a specific exit node:

sudo tailscale up --exit-node=<exit-node-ip>

Instructions because I have never compiled go before.
