acpid event handler for non-root users
Project description
acpic - an acpid client
This little daemon extends acpid
event handling capabilities. Normally, event handlers are placed by root in
/etc/acpi/events/. With acpic, you can place additional handlers in a per-user
~/.config/acpi/events/ directory.
I personally use it to control PulseAudio with hardware volume buttons on my laptop (see examples).
Installation
The easiest way is to install acpic with pip:
$ pip install acpic
Then, place your handlers in ~/.config/acpi/events/ and make acpic somehow
start when you log in, for example by creating an XDG-compliant entry in
~/.config/autostart/acpic.desktop:
[Desktop Entry]
Name=acpic
Comment=acpid event handler
TryExec=acpic
Exec=acpic
Type=Application
