Is there a way to determine from the command line if Valent is connected to my phone? #610

I'm looking to write a simple Waybar module that can launch Valent and show a different icon depending if it's connected to my phone or not. Just wondering if there's a simple query I could run? |

The only way to get such information is through D-Bus, so you could query the D-Bus object manager: gdbus call --session \
--dest "ca.andyholmes.Valent" \
--object-path "/ca/andyholmes/Valent" \
--method "org.freedesktop.DBus.ObjectManager.GetManagedObjects"Or if waybar plugins have some support for D-Bus there may be some more convenient methods you can use. |
