ranger_udisk_menu's Issues

JSON Decode Error

I ran into this issue this week, I saw that :mount command was not running on ranger so I decided to output into a file using sterr and got the following error

  1 Traceback (most recent call last):
  2   File "/home/user/.config/ranger/ranger_udisk_menu/menu.py", line 229, in <module>
  3     cp = ChoosePartition()
  4   File "/home/user/.config/ranger/ranger_udisk_menu/menu.py", line 34, in __init__
  5     self._read_partitions()
  6   File "/home/user/.config/ranger/ranger_udisk_menu/menu.py", line 38, in _read_partitions
  7     self.blkinfo = json.loads(r)
  8   File "/usr/lib/python3.10/json/__init__.py", line 346, in loads

 10   File "/usr/lib/python3.10/json/decoder.py", line 337, in decode

 13     obj, end = self.scan_once(s, idx)
 14 json.decoder.JSONDecodeError: Expecting ',' delimiter: line 66 column 22 (char 1579)

So I decided to check the dependencies listed and I have it installed all of them also I tried to run lsblk --all --json -O and get a good json format. I was wondering if this can be from json.load() function?

Not working

I read issue #2 and still don't understand what I have to do to make it work. Regardless of the font size and the terminal window, the menu does not appear.

Add support for crypted LUKS

I can't mount crypted LUKS:

Object /org/freedesktop/UDisks2/block_devices/sdb2 is not a mountable filesystem

With this features the plugin will be awesome

creating multiple folder with UUID when mounting a drive

I am glad found this. but every time when mounting a drive it creating separate folder like UUIDx , [where x = 1,2,3,...] . Anyone know how to get rid of this. And this happens after fresh reboot otherwise it mounting same folder.

Not working :(

Sorry for the inexpressive title. I've followed the steps to install and when I
call :mount the screen flickers and nothing else happens. How can I know if
this is a permissions problem or something else? I've tried calling the program
from command line, but that doesn't work. Thanks in advance!

Safely remove drive

In nautilus there is an option to safely remove drive.

It powers off the drive (no lights on)

Is there a similar feature in ranger_udisk_menu? Thanks!
