Hello all, I've been having a really hard time trying to figure how to do some basic customizations with qtile. I'm quite familiar with Python, but I'm running into two primary issues:
A) I can't access a "raw" `qtile` object to inspect it, so writing lazy functions is effectively impossible (beyond copy-pasting someone else's code). Most of my hacking is just guess and check. I've tried using the InteractiveCommandClient and CommandClient, but they don't (to my knowledge) replicate what I'd need to put in my `config.py`. B) I can't actually inspect objects to see what attributes/methods are available for me to use since qtile relies on the `__getattr__` construct. I'm guessing there's some reason for why it would be done this way, but that almost single-handedly makes it impossible for me to figure out 1) what object do I have and 2) what can I do with it. There are some errors in the documentation, but not being able to use `dir()` effectively means I have no idea what to do. Both of these combined have lead to a very frustrating 5 days of trying to figure qtile out and trying to implement features I want. Even just trying to copy-paste code from others only works 50% of the time and I have no idea how to fix it because of the two above issues. Am I missing something that makes this process easier? I really want to make qtile work, as I can see how easily customizable it is, but it's feeling pretty impossible right now. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qtile-dev" group.
