Alarm Manager

Purpose:

• To fix some of the papercuts that come with using GNOME Clocks on a mobile phone running Phosh.

Done:

• Dismiss alarms early
• Play alarm even if phone is in silent, volume is down/off, or otherwise muted
• Pause media players at alarm time and resume afterwards (resume is a bit unreliable atm)
• Optionally switch to speaker output for alarm and (attempt to) restore state afterwards
• Optionally ramp volume up from set minimum to set maximum for gentle wake up

To Do:

• More testing - you should consider this a warning!
• Does this even work on devices besides the FLX1s? Who knows!?
• List dependencies (I don't remember installing anything outside of the FuriOS defaults for this)
• Change the way the interval variable is used to be more intuitive and friendly
• Make resuming of media players reliable
• Allow selection of alarm tone (maybe... I've got an idea but no clue if it would work)
• Make a less manual installation method
• Make a settings app and .desktop file for settings changes instead of editing text files
• There has got to be a better way to force Clocks to reload its settings than a kill & respawn, right?

How to install:

• Move the contents of dot-local_bin to ~/.local/bin
• Edit the contents of dot-config_systemd_user to your liking and move them to ~/.config/systemd/user/
• [Eventually] Move the contents of dot-local_share_applications to ~/.local/share/applications
• Run: systemctl --user enable --now alarm-volume.service alarm-dismissal.service

How to uninstall

• Remove the files you added to the directories above
• Run: systemctl --user disable --now alarm-volume.service alarm-dismissal.service

Shout out

• FuriLabs for making the FLX1s, the first mobile Linux phone I've ever been able to comfortably (enjoyably even!) daily drive.
• Alaraajavamma (Aki) inspired me with their alarmvol script
