WayAFKNext prebuilt Vencord / AUR package

[JamDon2]

hey,

first thanks for this really awesome plugin :)

I made a pre-built Vencord with this included, accessible here. It will rebuild automatically and inject this plugin to the latest upstream version.

and since I'm using Vesktop on Arch I made a custom Vesktop AUR package that uses that Vencord build. so now this plugin can be used without building a custom Vencord/Vesktop client.

the AUR package is available here.

it can be installed with your AUR helper like yay -S vesktop-wayafknext-bin

also @MuffinTastic do you have any todos for this or is everything done?

if there's something I'd be happy to open a pr

Thanks for doing this!

All of the functionality I wanted for this plugin is done, it has quite a bit more than everything else I've seen out there, although if you can think of anything more to add I welcome ideas and PRs.

I have noticed an edge case issue that can cause Discord to fail to start, see #2. I don't think most users will encounter it, but it'd be nice to fix it for sure.

Aside from that, the main reason I haven't 'pushed' this plugin too much is the Rust backend being downloaded post-hoc, it's kind of a disgusting hack. I made justifications for in the README but frankly it should be done in TypeScript, the trouble is it's just not my comfort zone, see #3. I don't expect anyone to jump at the opportunity to rewrite 80% of the code for this plugin though, and it's not critical - the plugin will stay maintained in its current state for at least as long as Discord/Vencord lacks idle detection.

On that note, some efforts have been made to add such a thing to Vencord/Vesktop in the main repos:

Vencord/Vesktop#1180
Vencord/Vesktop#1198
Vendicated/Vencord#3767

Not that I would turn anything down, but contribution efforts might be better spent there, to benefit the most people possible.

I've updated the README to mention the AUR package. Thanks again!
