README
# udiskie-dmenu
Lightweight nodejs script which allows to manage removable devices via `dmenu` (or `rofi` or `fuzzel`).
Installation
-------------------
`npm install -g udiskie-dmenu`
or copy the `udiskie-dmenu` executable somewhere to `$PATH`
##### Archlinux
[udiskie-dmenu-git](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/udiskie-dmenu-git) AUR package
Features
-------------------
* mount
* umount
* Supports Luks encrypted devices
Dependencies
-------------------
* [udiskie](https://github.com/coldfix/udiskie) (python `udisks2` front-end)
* [rofi](https://github.com/DaveDavenport/rofi/) OR [dmenu](http://tools.suckless.org/dmenu/)
* `notify-send`
Usage
-------------------
### rofi
```bash
> UDISKIE_DMENU_LAUNCHER="rofi" udiskie-dmenu -matching regex -dmenu -i -no-custom -multi-select
```
User defined shortcut `-kb-custom-1` (defaults to `Alt+1`) will detach drive (umount) by e.g. powering down its physical port.
The following example redefines the custom shortcut to `Shift+Enter`:
> UDISKIE_DMENU_LAUNCHER='rofi' udiskie-dmenu -dmenu -kb-accept-alt "" -kb-custom-1 "Shift+Return"
You must ensure that the key combination isn't already binded to other operation (in this case `-kb-accept-alt`).
### fuzzel
```bash
> UDISKIE_DMENU_LAUNCHER="fuzzel" udiskie-dmenu --dmenu
```
### dmenu
```bash
> udiskie-dmenu [dmenu-options]
```
### system notifications
To be notified about `mount` & `umount` device status, run `udiskie` as a daemon when system starts (see `man udiskie` for more info)
