Can't set shortcuts for widgets

[LeoDurillon]

Hi, I’ve come across a problem while configuring a widget with Home Manager.

This is the actual configuration I’m using for the widget:

widgets = [
  ...
  {
    name = "Orbit.Start.Menu";
    config = {
      general = {
        customButtonImage = "nix-snowflake";
        useCustomButtonImage = true;
        favoritesPortedToKAstats = true;
        showFavoritesFirst = true;
      };
      shortcuts = {
        global = "Meta";
      };
    };
  }
]

This builds fine, but the problem comes from the configuration generated in the appletrc file:

# Config generated by Plasma Manager
[Containments][282][Applets][283][Configuration][shortcuts]
global=Meta

However, the expected configuration for the widget is:

# Expected config for the widget
[Containments][282][Applets][283][Shortcuts]
global=Meta

I’m not sure if there’s a workaround for this issue. I tried setting the shortcuts outside of config, but since it’s not an expected key, Nix won’t build it.

Thanks for your help! 😀

PS: Great work on the project – it’s really nice and easy to use! 😁

We currently don't support setting up shortcuts for widgets, but it shouldn't be too hard to do. I will look for a implementation and the next days and open a PR, so we can fix it.
