Arch Linux User Repository

hey guys is this actually not adding the program to path? Not showing. thanks

I added this feature request to github repo for this application. Please upvote there if you would like such feature also.

https://github.com/IsmaelMartinez/teams-for-linux/issues/1298

Describe the solution you'd like

I would like to be able to set my teams status from the command line.

This saves me from opening the application.
It also allows me to pipe status information from other apps to teams.
It would be great if this feature could be used even while teams is already running.
If the feature is used when teams is already running, no other visual teams instance will appear.
The teams instance used for setting the status will set the status and terminate.

Describe alternatives you've considered There is no alternative found.

Additional context The commands could look like this:

teams --set-status "having lunch" --clear-after 1h
teams --set-status "playing: the weeknd - blinding lights" --emoji 1f929

Pseudo Pipe examples:
mprisctl current | xargs -I{} teams --set-status "playing: {}"
build_status | xargs -I{} teams --set-status "build: {}"
task current | xargs -I{} teams --set-status "working on: {}"
calendarctl next | xargs -I{} teams --set-status "next meeting: {}"
batteryctl status | xargs -I{} teams --set-status "battery: {}"
weatherctl current | xargs -I{} teams --set-status "weather: {}"
uptime | awk '{print $10}' | xargs -I{} teams --set-status "load average: {}"
pomodoroctl status | xargs -I{} teams --set-status "pomodoro: {}"
git rev-parse --abbrev-ref HEAD | xargs -I{} teams --set-status "working on branch: {}"
docker ps --filter "status=running" --format "{{.Names}}" | xargs -I{} teams --set-status "containers running: {}"
vpnctl status | xargs -I{} teams --set-status "VPN: {}"

@AlphaJack Outdated means that the uploaded 1.4.19 from yesterday was already a month old.
Thank you for uploading 1.4.31 now.

@MartinX3 Hi, this "-bin" package comes already compiled and thus just needs to be extracted to be installed. The package you linked has to be compiled from source, so it takes longer to install.

What do you mean by "outdated upstream packages to update this package"?

https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/teams-for-linux is the better and newer package.
I have no clue why this package author only uses already outdated upstream packages to update this package.

In this package there's no Devices in the options. Does somebody knows a workaround?

i added link to /usr/bin

Hi,

Could you make the package available globally with a link to "/usr/bin/" ? Kinda like:

ln -sf "/opt/${pkgname}/${pkgname}" "${pkgdir}/usr/bin/${pkgname}"

You can have a look at how that mentioned package's PKGBUILD removes the bundled Electron.
