How to use

A user interface is like a joke; If you have to explain it, it is not that good. So here is the explanation of how to use this app.

Load a config

The first time you open the app it will not contain any scripts but instead some instructions on how to load your first config.

Create a .json file in the following format with the scripts you want or use the scroll rack example as a base.

[{
    "groupTitle": "Project name",
    "scripts": [
        {
            "title": "Script name",
            "description": "Script `description`",
            "script": "my-script \\\n with-multi-line-support"
        },
        { ... }
    ]
}, { ... }]

Copy a script to clipboard

1. Click on the title of your project to open the script drawer.
2. Click on the script you wish to copy to your clipboard.

Update your scripts

1. Via the settings menu, cogwheel in the top right corner, you can export your current config as a json file by clicking "Export config".
2. You can then modify the config as you wish.
3. Load the script into Scroll rack from the "Load config" in the settings menu.

Data storage

The config you load to Scroll rack will be stored according to the userData path in electron.app.getPath('userData') described here.

%APPDATA%\scroll-rack\scroll-rack-config.json on Windows
~/.config/scroll-rack/scroll-rack-config.json on Linux
~/Library/Application\ Support/scroll-rack/scroll-rack-config.json on macOS
