Hypridle timeout changer

[TheElevatedOne]

Hello I wrote a Hypridle timeout changer for my waybar.

Hiding the scripts as they are long.

Waybar Config

  "custom/lock-timer": {
    "format": " {text}m",
    "interval": 1,
    "exec": "$HOME/.config/hypr/scripts/hypr/hypridle-timeout get",
    "on-click": "$HOME/.config/hypr/scripts/hypr/hypridle-timeout toggle",
    "return-type": "json"
  },

Bash Script

#!/usr/bin/env bash

UN=$(grep timeout ~/.config/hypr/hypridle.conf | awk '{print $3}' | sed '3q;d')
GET=$(grep timeout ~/.config/hypr/hypridle.conf | awk '{print $3}' | sed '5q;d')

minutes() {
  local MIN=$(date --date="@$1" +"%-M")
  echo $MIN
}

TIMEOUT=(
  "300"
  "600"
  "900"
  "1200"
  "1800"
)

case $1 in

get)
  RET=$(minutes $GET)
  echo "{'text': '$RET', 'tooltip': '\tHyprlock Timeout\t\n\nTimeout: $RET Minutes ($GET Seconds)'}" | sed "s/'/\"/g" | jq --unbuffered --compact-output
  ;;

set)
  RET="$(minutes $2)"
  TM=$(echo "$2 30" | awk '{print $1 - $2}')

  sed -i "s/timeout\ =\ $UN/timeout\ =\ $TM/g" ~/.config/hypr/hypridle.conf
  sed -i "s/timeout\ =\ $GET/timeout\ =\ $2/g" ~/.config/hypr/hypridle.conf

  systemctl --user restart hypridle >>/dev/null
  ;;

toggle)
  for i in "${!TIMEOUT[@]}"; do
    if [[ "${TIMEOUT[$i]}" = "$GET" ]]; then
      INDEX=$i
      break
    fi
  done

  if [[ "$INDEX" -eq "4" ]]; then
    INDEX=0
  elif [[ "$INDEX" -lt "5" ]]; then
    INDEX=$((INDEX += 1))
  else
    INDEX=0
  fi

  TM=$(echo "${TIMEOUT[$INDEX]} 30" | awk '{print $1 - $2}')
  RET=$(minutes ${TIMEOUT[$INDEX]})

  sed -i "s/timeout\ =\ $UN/timeout\ =\ $TM/g" ~/.config/hypr/hypridle.conf
  sed -i "s/timeout\ =\ $GET/timeout\ =\ ${TIMEOUT[$INDEX]}/g" ~/.config/hypr/hypridle.conf

  systemctl --user restart hypridle >>/dev/null

  echo "{'text': '$RET', 'tooltip': '\tHyprlock Timeout\t\n\nTimeout: $RET Minutes (${TIMEOUT[$INDEX]} Seconds)'}" | sed "s/'/\"/g" | jq --unbuffered --compact-output

Hypridle Config

# Hyprlock for loginctl
general {
    lock_cmd = pidof hyprlock || hyprlock
}

# 5 mins
# Script for setting brightness to half the original
# listener {
#     timeout = 1800
#     on-timeout = $HOME/.config/hypr/scripts/halfbright
#     on-resume = brightnessctl -r
# }

# 10 mins
# Locking with hyprlock

listener {
    timeout = 1770
    on-timeout = eww open hyprlock
    on-resume = eww close hyprlock
}

listener {
    timeout = 1800
    on-timeout = loginctl lock-session
}

Hypridle cannot be restarted after it has been ran and you cannot reload the config. So this script user the hypridle.service through systemctl to workaround this issue.

Since My hypridle config uses a timeout widget (using eww) which just counts down the last 30 seconds, the script uses two values, but may be easily modified to use one or to use different margin than 30 seconds.

---

The script uses sed "Nq;d" to find the number it need to replace as only running

grep timeout ~/.config/hypr/hypridle.conf | awk '{print $3}'

Results in

=
=
1770
eww
1800
loginctl

There are predefined timeouts

TIMEOUT=(
  "300"  # 5 mins
  "600"  # 10 mins
  "900"  # 15 mins
  "1200" # 20 mins
  "1800" # 30 mins
)

Which may be changed, but if some are added, the numbers in this comparison should be increased by one to not break the code (made it hardcoded for my use case)

  if [[ "$INDEX" -eq "4" ]]; then   # from "4" to "5"
    INDEX=0
  elif [[ "$INDEX" -lt "5" ]]; then # from "5" to "6"
    INDEX=$((INDEX += 1))
  else
    INDEX=0
  fi

---

The script has been made in a CLI way, so you can toggle through the predefined values using

> hypridle-timeout toggle

Or set a custom time with the set arguments, although that one does not return anything, so usage in waybar is nonexisted at the moment, may change it later though.

The return value for waybar is

echo "{'text': '$RET', 'tooltip': '\tHyprlock Timeout\t\n\nTimeout: $RET Minutes (${TIMEOUT[$INDEX]} Seconds)'}" | sed "s/'/\"/g" | jq --unbuffered --compact-output

Which echo's both the text in minutes in the $RET variable and the tooltip for the module.
It used sed "s/'/\"/g" to overcome the limitation of bash and jq, which does not allow this expression (or at least I have not found a way to how)

echo "{"text": "$RET"}, ..." | jq --unbuffered --compact-output

That's kinda it from me.
