Thanks for the awesome extension!

Currently its not possible to convert specific time/date in given timezone to system's time/date.

[bug]Need update on plugin as per the new version of Albert 0.18.10

Seems calculate-anything does not load with prerequisite version of python 3.10 and qt6

[bug] zombie process

Describe the bug

When Ulauncher exits, all other extensions exit as expected, but calculate-anything lingers. If I start another Ulauncher, there will be two calculate-anything instances running. If I exit Ulauncher again, two calculate-anything instances are lingering.

To Reproduce

# run it for the first time
sh-5.1$ ulauncher --hide-window
# then hit ctrl-c
sh-5.1$ ps axl | grep -i ulauncher

Same result with these alternatives:

• GDK_BACKEND=wayland.
• exec GDK_BACKEND=wayland ulauncher --hide-window in sway config and exit from widget menu

Expected behavior

com.github.tchar.ulauncher-albert-calculate-anything/main.py should terminate like other extensions.

[bug] If pint is not installed, suggest user restarts ulauncher after install

Describe the bug

The message reminding the user to install pint does not also suggest that the user restarts ulauncher to get around the error, but it is necessary (at least is was for me).

To Reproduce

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Install extension but do not install pint
2. Open ulauncher and type =
3. Notice a message saying something like "Install pint by running pip install pint"
4. Install pint by running pip install pint.
5. Open ulauncher and type =

Expected behavior

I expect newly installed pint to be recognized, since I followed the directions.

What happened instead

2. Got the same message saying "Install pint by running pip install pint"
3. Start fiddling with it to get it to work, which starts with restarting ulauncher process.
4. Notice that there is no more error message about pint

Sorry I don't have logs, please let me know if you actually need them for this.

[feature] Use the word "in" as alias for "to" in conversions

When 20 cm in inches is typed, I would expect the same result as for 20 cm to inches. (The same syntax is supported by Google search, so I'm used to it.)

Would be possible to add support for this as well? Thanks!

An option to make outbound calls on-demand (or disable it totally)

Is your feature request related to a problem?

Somewhat related to #35, but even if that one is fixed, this feature is still nice to have.

The main reason for me is security and privacy. For example, I do not wish to create network activities in a public, or monitored environment. This plugin is the only one in my whole system making outbound calls on its own.

Describe the solution you'd like

I would like one of these solutions:

1. The option to choose between on-demand (only call out whenever user demands it) and pre-cached data (current). This would be ideal.
2. The option to turn off the periodic outbound calls in the background. When the user requests it, remind user to turn it back on first in order to use it. Or,
3. The option to turn off services (right now only Currency) that make background calls. (probably easier to implement without having to change much)

Describe alternatives you've considered

Right now I just remove the currency part of the code. Not ideal.

[feature] Timestamp calculation (not from today)

Is your feature request related to a problem?

I would like to do addition and subtraction using timestamps.

Describe the solution you'd like

= 1:8:59 + 8:11:32. The result would be 9:20:31.

This is a simple example with hours, minutes and seconds, but the idea is to extend this to multiple timestamps, support for timezones and milliseconds.

This is different from the time command in which you add or subtract from today as a timestamp, which is an awesome tool.

Describe alternatives you've considered

None that I've considered.

Additional context

Just a question, if it is possible. May I create a PR for this feature request? Do you think what I'm asking is possible within the constraints of this project? Thanks.

And thanks for this plugin. Really looking forward for this feature. It would help me a lot.

Feature request: weight units

I am unable to convert e.g. cups to grams. I've installed all prerequisites as per setup instructions.

= 1 cup to gram

Thanks

Proxy support [feature]

I don't like frequent requests from my computer to a web services, so I like to transfer the requests through Tor for this kind of tools, I usually use SOCKS5 tor proxy witch gives you socks5://127.0.0.1:9050 by default when you start tor serves.

Describe the solution you'd like

I would like to see a proxy section in the extention config page in ulauncher, or if it's hard to make it more customized you can just put an on/off button to use tor.

How to implement it?

I found thet you are using urllib to get data so you can use this solution for tor's SOCKS5 before importing urlopen:

import socket
import socks

def create_connection(addr, timeout=None, src=None):
    sock = socks.socksocket()
    sock.connect(addr)
    return sock

socks.setdefaultproxy(socks.PROXY_TYPE_SOCKS5, '127.0.0.1', 9050, True)

socket.socket = socks.socksocket
socket.create_connection = create_connection

# then importing urlopen
from urllib.request import urlopen

Source: https://hackeradam.com/post/how-to-route-urllib2-through-tor/

🔴🔴 Be aware about the True in:

socks.setdefaultproxy(socks.PROXY_TYPE_SOCKS5, '127.0.0.1', 9050, True)

If you don't use it the DNS will be leaked.

[bug] Extension crashed after updating and saving new settings and then crashes instantly on reload

Extension stopped converting: 'currency' is not defined in the unit registry

Hey,

The extension stopped working a few days ago. I've tried multiple conversions but I get no result with any of them.

In the console I have this error: pint.errors.UndefinedUnitError: 'currency' is not defined in the unit registry

Thank you!

Not working

No function work, just loading...
