TLPUI - 18.02.2020
The Python scripts in this project generate a GTK-UI to change TLP configuration files easily. It has the aim to protect users from setting bad configuration and to deliver a basic overview of all the valid configuration values.
Preparations:
- TLP installed
- Gtk3 libs installed
- Python3 installed
Start UI:
- Download and extract ZIP or pull repository
- Open terminal and go to specific folder
- Type:
python3 -m tlpui
Current status:
- Software still in Beta status
- Supports TLP versions 0.8-1.3
What works:
- Configuration can be read and displayed
- Shows information about configuration changes (defaults/unsaved and dropin/user config)
- Changes can be saved with user and sudo permissions (e.g. /etc/default/tlp or /etc/tlp.conf)
- tlp-stat can be load in ui (simple and complete)
To be done:
- Translation optimizations
- Improve/enhance test environment
- Codestyle and docstyle refactorings
- Implement Debian package build pipeline
- Provide distribution independent package (Flatpak)
