gamemoded will now load and merge settings from the following locations - arrays will merge and single settings will overwrite.
1. /usr/share/gamemode/
2. /etc/
3. $XDG_CONFIG_HOME or $HOME/.config/
4. $PWD
A much requested feature, this allows for providing custom scripts in the config file. An example in the man page is below and would trigger both a system notification, and allow control over a background crypto mining script automatically in gamemode.
[custom]
; Custom scripts (executed using the shell) when gamemode starts and ends
start=notify-send "GameMode started"
/home/me/bin/stop_ethmining.sh
end=notify-send "GameMode ended"
/home/me/bin/start_ethmining.sh
Scripts are run with system() and do not have any special privilages, as with the rest of the daemon, custom scripts that require root will need their own permissions set up externally.
This commit also renames two defines as they needed to be moved to the public interface.
This moves adding to lists and getting long values into resuable functions.
It also fixes a couple other issues in the process:
1. Logging now goes to the error channel and is labelled
2. >Max length lines are properly handled, although this should never happen since inih has a 200 limit
Checks for a gamemode.ini in /usr/share/gamemode/ (or in the cwd for debugging)
Currently allows for blacklisting and whitelisting clients based on rudimentary needle-haystack executable name checks
See the example/gamemode.ini file for expected syntax
Using the BSD licensed inih library (with additional meson.build file)
