From 3bace4ac392fb914263377369383f5ac23111c61 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Igor Soarez Date: Mon, 19 Oct 2026 16:19:10 +0300 Subject: wait for tmux at startup, force utf-8 for tmux clients, add launchd packaging running under launchd, the tmux client defaults to the c locale, which makes tmux mangle tab-separated -f output into underscores, so every pane parsed as one field and the watcher silently saw nothing; invoke tmux with -u so format output is locale-independent. drop the startup fail-fast: the watcher now waits for a tmux server and attaches when one appears, which is the right shape for a login agent. ship the launchd plist under packaging/launchd. --- crates/dinggerd/src/watcher.rs | 22 +++++++++++++++++----- 1 file changed, 17 insertions(+), 5 deletions(-) (limited to 'crates/dinggerd/src/watcher.rs') diff --git a/crates/dinggerd/src/watcher.rs b/crates/dinggerd/src/watcher.rs index 46f5ebd..56107d6 100644 --- a/crates/dinggerd/src/watcher.rs +++ b/crates/dinggerd/src/watcher.rs @@ -46,13 +46,25 @@ impl Watcher { } pub fn run(&mut self) -> Result<(), String> { - // Fail fast when tmux is unreachable at startup; after that, keep - // retrying — the server may come back. - self.tick()?; info!(interval = self.interval_secs, "watching tmux panes"); + // dingger is a client of the tmux server, which may not exist yet — + // it starts when the first terminal opens one.
