Tabbly

A program for showing your tab usage within Discord's rich presence and to log that usage. Currently only supports usage on Firefox within GNU/Linux. If you want to help bring this little script to your OS of choice, don't be afraid to create a pull request :)

How to run

You will firstly need to have the following things installed and have access to a terminal within the project's folder.

• Python 3.8+
• Python 3.8+ PIP

TL;DR

Use the following command within bash And make sure Display current activity as a status message. is enabled within the privacy settings!

python -m venv venv && source venv/bin/activate && pip install -r requirements.txt && python src/main.py; deactivate

Full explanation

After installing that, you will need a virtual environment for python to run in. This can be created and entered with the following command on GNU/Linux. It may be necessary to type python3 instead of python if you also have Python version 2 installed.

python -m venv venv
source venv/bin/activate

Note: this virtual environment can be deactivated with the deactivate command and cleaned up after by just removing the venv folder.

Finally you will need to install the dependencies of this program. This can be done with the following command but pip may need to be replaced with pip3 depending on what's installed on your PC.

pip install -r requirements.txt

Now you can run python src/main.py to start running the program. The only thing you need to make sure of now is that the Display current activity as a status message. setting is enabled within Discord. Tabbly won't show anything if it isn't.

Note: When you want to contribute, you should probably also add the dev dependencies so pylint and black can be used during development. This can be done in the venv described above using the following command.

pip install -r requirements.dev.txt
