implement --no-ui with no X available.

[kda]

I start streamdeck from "systemctl --user" when the host boots. In other words, there is absolutely no UI available.

I hacked up your beautiful script to work in this case.

While this works for my application, there is one fallback. If the user selects '--no-ui' it suppresses the tray.
There are 2 ways to fix this:

• additional flag: --no-tray
• detect presence of X, if '--no-ui' and X present, then create tray.

But before spending that effort I wanted to see if you were interested in my hack.

Hello @kda ,

Thanks to @dodgyrabbit, I found your proposal to start streamdeck-ui in headless mode, meaning without a screen, keyboard, or mouse.

I have modified gui.py following your instructions.

I have also tried to start streamdeck-ui with systemctl --user instead of including it in rc.local.

However, it is still not working.

I have tried to do it manually, and with your changes, it works perfectly.

I just want to bring the Raspberry Pi, printer, and StreamDeck, with the necessary power supply, to my classes, without a screen, mouse, or keyboard. #311

I am interested in your hack ;-)

I'm glad you like it. Thanks for the feedback.
