project-gauntlet/gauntlet v13 on GitHub

General

Window Tracking
- Gauntlet now tracks opened windows and assigns them to specific application entry in results
- If application has window open, primary action now instead focuses the window
- If there are multiple windows open, primary action opens view which contains list of windows that can be focused
- If application has window open, it is still possible to open new application instance by using separate new action
- It is experimental, and it is possible to disable window tracking by unchecking checkbox in Application entrypoint preferences in Settings UI
- Currently supported on
  - Linux X11
  - wlroots-based window managers
  - Hyprland
  - Cosmic
Added "Show all opened windows" entrypoint to bundled plugin
Application plugin is now implemented on Windows
macOS native-like dark and light mode themes are now available
On macOS theme is now auto-selected based on system theme
On macOS window can now be dragged to change its position
- Window position is saved and will be used after restart
Binary size has been reduced by around 40% (contributed by @davfsa)
Added main_window.close_on_unfocus boolean option to config file to disable "close on unfocus" functionality of main window
- Intended to be used when using "window focus follows mouse" functionality of OS, Desktop Environment or Window Manager
Added option in Settings UI to choose were main window appears when opening it
- Current options
  - Static
    - Window always opens in the same location (on macOS location can be changed by dragging the window)

    - Windows opens on monitor which has currently focused window
- Currently supported only on macOS

Plugins

Entrypoint Generator improvements
- BREAKING CHANGE: Renamed "command-generator" entrypoint type into "entrypoint-generator", as well as all types related to it
- BREAKING CHANGE: Removed GeneratedEntrypoint's fn: () => void
  - actions: GeneratedEntrypointAction[] field now is required to have at least one element
  - It is now possible to specify label displayed on bottom row panel for primary action
- BREAKING CHANGE: Renamed GeneratedEntrypointAction's fn field into run
- It is now possible to have GeneratedEntrypointAction which opens view instead of running command by specifying view field with value of React FC type instead of run
- Renamed GeneratorProps to GeneratorContext
- Added pluginPreferences and entrypointPreferences properties to GeneratorContext to access preferences from Entrypoint Generator
- Added get: (id: string) => GeneratedEntrypoint | undefined function to GeneratorContext to get added entrypoint
- Added getAll: () => GeneratedEntrypoint[] function to GeneratorContext to get all added entrypoints
- Generated Entrypoints can now have accessories similar to <List/> component
Removed pluginPreferences and entrypointPreferences helper functions
Added usePluginPreferences and useEntrypointPreferences React Hooks
Command function now receives CommandContext as first argument
- Object contains pluginPreferences and entrypointPreferences properties to access preferences from Command
Unified primary and secondary action execution in <List.Item/> and <Grid.Item/>
- BREAKING CHANGE: Removed onClick property on <List.Item/> and <Grid.Item/> components
- BREAKING CHANGE: <List.Item/> and <Grid.Item/> now has how id: string required property
- If primary or secondary action is executed when <List.Item/> and <Grid.Item/> is focused, onAction handler first parameter will be value of id prop of focused item
Added onItemFocusChange?: (itemId: string | undefined) => void property on <List.Item/> and <Grid.Item/>. Function is called when focused item changes
BREAKING CHANGE: Renamed Image type to ImageLike to avoid conflict with <Image/> component
When entrypoint is enabled/disabled or preference value is changed whole plugin runtime is restarted instead of just reloading the search index
It is now possible to control whether the action closes main window by returning { close: true } object from onAction property function
- For <Inline/> view and commands (including generated commands) action always closes window without possibility to keep it open
Improved rejected promise error log

Show name of generator entrypoint near plugin name of entrypoints generated by it in main view search results

Values of fields in <List.Detail.Metadata/> are now positioned on the same row as labels
