A KDE Plasma 6 applet (panel icon) to toggle [voxtype](https://voxtype.io) voice typing on and off.

## Prerequisites

[voxtype](https://voxtype.io) must be installed and its daemon running. The applet reads state from `/run/user/1000/voxtype/state` and checks for the daemon via `/run/user/1000/voxtype/pid` — the same locations used by the voxtype GNOME extension.

## Installing voxtype on non-NixOS systems

*(Untested!)*

1. Install voxtype on your system (e.g. via npm, pip, or your distro's package manager).
2. Start the voxtype daemon so it writes its state and PID to `/run/user/1000/voxtype/`.

## Using this flake

### Import into your flake

Add this repo as a flake input in your `flake.nix`:

```nix
{
  inputs = {
    # ... your other inputs ...
    voxtype-toggle = {
      url = "https://git.eversole.co/James/voxtype-toggle-plasmashell.git";
      inputs.nixpkgs.follows = "nixpkgs";
    };
  };

  outputs = { self, nixpkgs, voxtype-toggle, ... }@inputs:
    let
      system = "x86_64-linux";
      # ...
    in {
      # ...
      homeConfigurations.myuser = home-manager.lib.homeManagerConfiguration {
        inherit pkgs;
        extraSpecialArgs = { inherit voxtype-toggle system; };
        modules = [ ./nix/user/home.nix ];
      };
    };
}
```

### Using with Home Manager

In your home.nix, receive `voxtype-toggle` as an argument and install the applet via `xdg.dataFile`:

```nix
{ config, pkgs, voxtype-toggle, system, ... }:
let
  voxtypeToggle = voxtype-toggle.packages.${system}.default;
  plasmoidId = "org.eversole.voxtype-toggle";
in
{
  xdg.dataFile."plasma/plasmoids/${plasmoidId}" = {
    source = voxtypeToggle;
  };
}
```

The `xdg.dataFile` entry symlinks the entire package output (which contains `contents/` and `metadata.json`) into the Plasma plasmoids directory under its `KPlugin.Id`.

After applying your config, add the widget to your panel by right-clicking → "Add Widgets…" → search for "Voxtype Toggle" and pin it.

## What this does

- Shows a panel icon reflecting the current voxtype state.
- Click to toggle recording on/off (sends `voxtype record toggle` when the daemon is running).
- Polls the state file periodically to update the icon and tooltip.
- Icons change by state: idle, recording, transcribing, or not-running.
