A user found the StackApplet, a GNOME panel applet that monitors activity on StackExchange sites, and wondered if it could be modified to work with Discourse. riking expressed concerns about the potential for changes to Discourse’s structure, suggesting it might be better to revisit the idea in a few months to avoid having to support multiple formats. diff didn’t fully understand the response but scheduled a reminder to bring up the topic again in 2-3 months.
I was scrolling this page, and one of indicators attracted me. This one:
StackApplet is a GNOME panel applet that monitors your activity on any StackExchange site.
To install it, use this ppa. The first time the application is used, run
python /usr/share/stackapplet/stackapplet.py &from a terminal.
Is it possible to change the source to make it ready for Discourse?
This feels like a bit of a premature request. It’s possible for the structure of several things in Discourse to change in the future, and I wouldn’t want to have to be supporting two notifications.json formats in the code for that.
Maybe revisit this in a few months?
I didn’t get what you said! However I added it to Google calender to bump the topic for 2/3 next months
