Bug ID: 521499
Summary: [Feature Request] kscreen-doctor -j (JSON output) is
missing UUID (shown in "-o" output)
Classification: Plasma
Product: KScreen
Version First 6.6.5
Reported In:
Platform: Arch Linux
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: minor
Priority: NOR
Component: kscreen-doctor
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Target Milestone: ---
DESCRIPTION
Using kscreen-doctor -o, outputs are listed like:
Output: 1 eDP-1 0238fbd2-2532-4ad8-9080-c99785f69a96
The UUID is useful in programmatic usage, but is sadly missing form
"kscreen-doctor -j".
An example use case is automatedly mapping touch devices, e.g. via:
kwriteconfig6 --file kcminputrc --group "Libinput" --group
"$TOUCH_DEVICE_VENDOR" --group "$TOUCH_DEVICE_PRODUCT" --group
"$TOUCH_DEVICE_NAME" --key "OutputUuid" "$UUID"
(sadly, reconfiguring "kwin" after that is not sufficient, but restarting the
session allows automating such a mapping).
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Run "kscreen-doctor -o" and see UUID (but that command is not really meant
for "parsing", see e.g. #485146 ).
2. Run "kscreen-doctor -j", UUID is missing.
