ranger-kdialog

#!/bin/sh

## NOTE: I have stopped developing this script, focusing instead on the `nnn` variant.

## Instructions
# - Place this file as /usr/local/bin/kdialog
# - Set XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP=KDE

# To pick a directory in ranger, press q.

## Debugging
#args="$@"
#notify-send "kdialog $args"
echo "$@" >> $HOME/ranger-kdialog.log

# $1 is the window title

    cat /tmp/fileselect
    echo "getopenfilename $(cat /tmp/fileselect)" >> $HOME/ranger-kdialog.log
    rm /tmp/fileselect
}

getexistingdirectory() {
    $TERMINAL -t "$1" -e ranger --choosedir=/tmp/fileselect
    cat /tmp/fileselect
    echo "getexisitingdirectory $(cat /tmp/fileselect)" >> $HOME/ranger-kdialog.log
    rm /tmp/fileselect
}

getsavefilename() {
    dir=$(getexistingdirectory "$1")
    echo "$dir/$2"
    echo "getsavefilename $dir/$2" >> $HOME/ranger-kdialog.log

    nohup $HOME/.xmonad/bin/notify.sh "$dir" "$2" &
}

version() {
    # impersonate the latest version
    echo "kdialog 21.12.1" >> ~/kdialog-log
    echo "kdialog 21.12.1"
}


## Parse options
for (( i=1; i<=$#; i++ ));
do
    case ${!i} in
    --getopenfilename | --getexistingdirectory | --version )
        # get rid of the leading dashes
        fun=${!i##--}
        ;;
    --getsavefilename )
        fun=${!i##--}
        (( i++ ))
        save_path="${!i}"
        save_file="${save_path##/*/}"
        ;;
    --title )
        (( i++ ))
        title=${!i}
        ;;
    esac
done 2> /dev/null;

title=${title:-ranger-kdialog}

## Epic functional programming trick
if ! [ -z "$fun" ]; then
    echo "$($fun "$title" "$save_file")"
