example

# list items
./wofi-power-menu -l
No config file found, using default values
Available items:
----------------
shutdown: Shut down [disabled: false, confirmation: true]
reboot: Reboot [disabled: false, confirmation: true]
suspend: Suspend [disabled: false, confirmation: true]
hibernate: Hibernate [disabled: false, confirmation: false]
logout: Logout [disabled: false, confirmation: false]
lock-screen: Lock screen [disabled: false, confirmation: false]

# enables confirmation for lock screen and suspend
./wofi-power-menu --confirm lock-screen --confirm reboot

# "hides" hibernate
./wofi-power-menu --disable hibernate

Configuration File

Optionally you can create $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/wofi-power-menu.toml to customize the app:

[wofi]
  path = "/alternative/path/to/wofi"
  extra_args = "--allow-markup --columns=1 --hide-scroll"

[menu.shutdown]
  title = "Apagar"

[menu.reboot]
  title = "Reiniciar"

[menu.suspend]
  title = "Suspender"
  enabled = "false"

[menu.hibernate]
  title = "Hibernar"

[menu.logout]
  title = "Salir"

[menu.lock-screen]
    title = "Bloquear pantalla"
    requires_confirmation = "false"

[menu.ls]
  title = "Listar directorio"
  cmd = "ls -l --color"
  icon = "L"

You can configure a custom wofi location as well as change which wofi extra flags to use.

Also, you can customize the menue either:

1. Overriding default values in any existing menu entry. The above example translates the titles to Spanish, disables the requires_confirmation flag for the lock-screen item, and hides (i.e. set enabled=false the suspend item.
2. Adding new entries, like ls. Notice that the only optional field are requires_confirmation (defaults to false) and enabled (defaults to true), you have to set title, cmd and icon.
