@jtdubs Thanks for contributing! Unfortunately we will not merge this in its current state, because it doesn't fit with the direction we want click handlers to go. Read my write up in #1524. If we merged it like this, we would just have to deprecate the All hope is not lost though :) Also don't forcibly add |

@patrick96, thank you for the feedback. I made this much harder for myself than I needed to given the capabilities of m_builder. :) I re-wrote it and squashed the commits. It's now just a click-right handler bound to mousebtn::RIGHT using m_builder. I also removed the default value to align with how the text module worked. It's easy enough to specify click-right=pavucontrol in the config file. Also, I just noticed the branch name contains a type-o. "planel". I don't know how many times I've stared at that and didn't notice. I can certainly rename it, but it'd require a new PR. Let me know if/how you want to proceed. And, thanks again for the feedback. It's an awesome toolbar, and an easy-to-read code base. |

Yes this makes the code much easier.
Don't worry about the typo in the branch name, it won't appear in the commit history.
I don't think the way you implemented this will work, see my comment below.
If you want you can also add click-middle to make the module more consistent.
src/modules/pulseaudio.cpp
Outdated

This won't work. You need to call m_builder->cmd in the get_output method. The text module has a good example for that.
Uses the m_builder->cmd() pattern in get_output to add a click-right and click-middle handler for the pulseaudio module.
|
@patrick96, interesting. That explains some inconsistent behavior I was seeing on further testing. It worked once, but after that produced an error indicating it couldn't find an input area. The connection between event listeners and get_output() is not obvious to me. The code is moved, and a middle-click handler is added for consistency with the text module. |

Looks good.
I also ran clang-format on the file and pushed that.
It probably stopped working after the module updated for the first time, right? That's because the builder gets reset whenever you update the module contents.
It's not really a direct connection. What you do is you add |

Congrats on your first contribution to polybar 🚀 |

Hi, the wiki says the click-right and click-middle features are unreleased. Maybe this is out-of-date, but it doesn't seem to work on my machine running 3.4.3 The left click works, so |
|
The wiki is right. click-right and click-middle are unreleased. That's why they don't work for you. |
Breaking Changes:
* The new config parser imposes some restrictions on which characters can be
used in section and key names. Users shouldn't be affected by this unless they
use one of the following characters in any section or key name: `"'=;#[](){}:.$\%`
Please consult [`man 5 polybar`](https://polybar.readthedocs.io/en/latest/man/polybar.5.html) for a full reference of the new config rules.
* `internal/temperature`: The first and last ramp element are now only used for
`base-temperature` and below and `warn-temperature` and above respectively.
This only slightly changes the ranges for which the different ramp levels are
responsible for.
(#2197)
Changelog
**Deprecations**
* `[settings]`: `throttle-input-for` has been removed. It wasn't a useful option
and could cause certain actions (e.g. click commands) to be ignored. (#2117)
* All action names used by modules to handle click and scroll events are
depercated (#1907). This change mainly affects users of the menu module.
Please read the [documentation](https://polybar.readthedocs.io/en/latest/user/actions.html) for instructions on how to migrate.
**New Config Options**
The `include-directory` key can be used the same as `include-file` and includes
all regular files in the given directory.
In labels:
* `label-NAME-minlen`, `label-NAME-alignment` can be used to pad labels with
spaces to the right (alignment set to `left`), left (alignment set to
`right`), and both sides (alignment set to `center`).
In `internal/backlight`:
* `enable-scroll` enables changing the brightness through scrolling.
In `internal/github`:
* `format-offline` is used when the module cannot connect to the server.
* `label-offline` can be used in `format-offline`.
* `api-url` can be used to connect to a custom github enterprise instance
In `internal/pulseaudio`:
* `click-right` and `click-middle` can be used to execute commands when
right/middle clicking.
* `%decibels%` token can be used in `label-volume` and `label-muted` to show the
volume in decibels.
**Changes To The Build System**
* Allow users to specify python executable when building. (polybar/xpp#27,
#2125)
* The i3ipcpp submodule no longer rebuilds jsoncpp and just uses whatever
version is available. (#2015, polybar/i3ipcpp#9)
**Features**
* New commandline argument: `-M` / `--list-all-monitors`.
Will display all available monitors (even cloned ones).
* New log level: `notice`.
Used as the default and is used for non-warning messages the user should
nevertheless be aware of. (#2027)
* config:
* New config parser (#1377)
* `include-directory` key (#2196), see #1946
* Add error message when an entire section is missing. (#2195)
* `-minlen` and `-alignment` properties for labels. (#1546)
* Make the `seperator` key in the bar section a label. (#1918)
* Better color validation. (#1290)
* timer modules: Schedule module updates to be aligned with the update interval.
For example, the date module now updates on the minute instead of in the
middle of a minute if the interval is set to 60 seconds. (#2123), see #2064
* `custom/menu`: Multiple menu modules per bar (#1907)
* `internal/backlight`: Support for changing the brightness through scrolling.
This may require additional changes to the system running polybar. (#1957)
* `internal/github`:
* `format-offline` for when the module cannot connect to the server (#1825),
see #1815
* Support for github enterprise instances. (#1841), see #1812
* `internal/network`: Support `Gbit/s` for `%linkspeed%` token. (#2055)
* `internal/pulseaudio`:
* `click-right` and `click-middle` keys (#1941)
* `%decibels%` token (#1894), see #1886
* `internal/xworkspaces`: Proper implementation for `label-occupied`. (#822),
see #874, #1444, #1033
**Fixes**
* Polybar not executing commands that produce output. (#1680), see #916
* Polybar froze until click commands finished executing (#2248)
* Polybar not properly working with mirrored monitors. (#1823), see #1192 and
#1794
* Unstable animation framerate (#1683), see #568
* Multiple modules of the same type caused click events not to be delivered to
the rigth one (#1907), see #1172
* config:
* Seemingly unrelated error messages when BOM character appears in config.
(#2166), see #2075
* Fall back to next possible config location if config file doesn't exist
(except if `--config` was used). (#2026), see #2016
* iconset: `fuzzy-match` chose first match, even if exact match was available.
(#2042), see #2041
* `custom/menu`: Spacing issue (#1656)
* `internal/alsa`: Volume didn't go over 100% (#2184), see #2173
* `internal/backlight`: Use amdgpu workaround for all devices starting with
`amdgpu_bl`. (#2122)
* `internal/battery`: Battery not marked as full if over `full-at` percent.
(#2019), see #1622
* `internal/cpu`: More accurate cpu load calculation. (#1955)
* `internal/github`: Outdated GitHub API authentication. (#2029), see #2002
* `internal/memory`: Use the correct size prefixes (#2211), see #2023
* `internal/network`:
* Wrong up- and downspeed values for non-integer intervals. (#2219)
* tun/tap interfaces didn't query their IP addresses. (#1990), see #1986
* Don't crash module if linkspeed cannot be queried. (#1772), see #1211
* `internal/temperature`:
* `format-warn` was not used if the temperature was *exactly*
`warn-temperature`. (#1897)
* `internal/xworkspaces`:
* Multi-monitor issue (#1929), see #1764, #1849
* Module sometimes showed too many workspaces (#1984), see #1983
* build:
* xpp submodule doesn't work with python 3.9 (polybar/xpp#26)
* CMake 3.17+ developer warnings (#2089, polybar/xpp#24, polybar/xpp#25)
* gtest compilation failure (#1993), see google/googletest#2678
* Compilation issue in GCC 6. (#1953)

This PR adds a config option to specify a control panel for pulseaudio. The default is pavucontrol.
It also listens for right-click events and uses command_util to launch the specified control panel.
