LaunchyTomboyPlugin 0.1.2

Introduction
Launchy Tomboy Plugin

Requirements
I have tested this setup with:

Windows 7
Python 2.7
Launchy: 2.6 Beta 2
Tomboy: 1.11.2
PyLaunchy: 0.9

Installation

Make sure the above requirements are met
install this package using pip, easy_install, or the .exe installer
create a file like the one below:
# this file should reside at
# <Launchy program dir>\plugins\python\pytomboy.py
from os import environ as ose
import launchy

# uncomment this line if you want debug messages from LaunchyTomboyPlugin
# to go to <Launch program dir>\plugins\python\stdout.txt
#ose['LAUNCHY_TOMBOY_DEBUG'] = '1'

from launchytomboyplugin import Tomboy

launchy.registerPlugin(Tomboy)
print 'Tomboy plugin registered'

start or restart Launchy

Environment Variables

LAUNCHY_TOMBOY_DEBUG: set to enable debug info in the stdout.txt (see below)
TOMBOY_PROGRAM_PATH: set to the full path to Tomboy.exe if your Tomboy install
is in a non-standard location.

Log Files
Keep theses files in mind when trying to troubleshoot problems:

<Launchy program dir>\plugins\python\stdout.txt
<Launchy program dir>\plugins\python\stderr.txt

Using the Plugin
This plugin inserts two static items into the Launchy catalog:

Tomboy New Note
Tomboy Search Notes

It will also index the title of every Tomboy note and make it available as an
item in the Launchy catalog. So if you have a note with a title of “ToDo List”
typing “ToDo List” in Launchy should bring up that item. Hitting enter will
open the corresponding Tomboy note.
Note: the plugin rebuilds the list of note titles whenever Launchy rebuilds its
catalog. The auto-refresh time period can be set in Launchy options. A manual
refresh of the catalog can also be triggered, see Launchy docs for more info.

Known Issues
If Tomboy is not running and two Tomboy related commands are issued quickly
in succession, its possible the second Tomboy instance will crash. Once Tomboy
is up and running, this is no longer an issue.
Workaround: be patient the first time you use a Tomboy related item with Launchy
to give the Tomboy process that is started time to fully initialize.
