Night Manager

Purpose:

• To keep your FLX1s from disturbing your sleep

Done:

• Evening time and morning time are systemd timers for efficiency and flexibility
• At set evening time:
  • Store current states of anything being changed (for restoration in the morning)
  • Set Feedback Profile to Quiet (vibration only) or Silent as configured
  • Optionally set Theme Style to Dark
  • Optionally change Legacy (gtk3) Theme (such as adw-gtk3 - see Installation note!)
  • Optionally change Accent Color
  • Optionally change Icon Theme (perfect with Adwaita-colors!)
  • Optionally enable Ambient Light Sensor (automatic brightness adjustment)
  • Optionally enable Night Light
• At set morning time:
  • If Feedback Profile change was configured, restore original
  • If Theme Style change was configured, restore original
  • If Legacy (gtk3) Theme change was configured, restore original
  • If Accent Color change was configured, restore original
  • If Icon Theme change was configured, restore original
  • If Ambient Light Sensor was configured, restore original
  • If Night Light was configured, restore original

To Do:

• Have option to schedule changes separately and/or follow GNOME automatic Night Light time

Installation:

wget -O nightmanager_latest.deb https://github.com/ajdunevent/NightManager/releases/latest/download/nightmanager_latest.deb
sudo apt install ./nightmanager_latest.deb

• Note: to change the theme on legacy (gtk3) flatpaks, you'll want to install the gtk3 theme flatpak.
  • For example: flatpak install flathub org.gtk.Gtk3theme.adw-gtk3 org.gtk.Gtk3theme.adw-gtk3-dark

Configuration:

• Launch the (beta) "NightManager Configuration" from your app launcher.
• Or do things the old way:
  • Edit ~/.config/nightmanager/nightmanager.conf to set the desired nighttime mode behaviors.
  • Set nighttime enable time(s) using OnCalendar line(s) in ~/.config/systemd/user/nightmanager-on.timer.d/10-override.conf
  • Set nighttime disable time(s) using OnCalendar line(s) in ~/.config/systemd/user/nightmanager-off.timer.d/10-override.conf
  • Run: systemctl --user daemon-reload && systemctl --user restart nightmanager-on.timer nightmanager-off.timer

Uninstallation:

sudo apt remove nightmanager

• FuriLabs for making the FLX1s, the first mobile Linux phone many of us have ever been able to comfortably (enjoyably even!) daily drive.
