Espresso keeps your computer awake from the system tray.

Espresso

Espresso keeps your computer awake from the system tray.

Launching Espresso creates a system tray (aka notification area) icon. Click the icon to inhibit power management and keep your computer awake. Click it again to return to normal. Right-click to inhibit for a specific amount of time. Middle-click to quit.

Dependencies

Linux

• Python 3
• PyQt5
• dbus-python

Windows 7

• Python 3
• PyQt5

Motivation

Espresso is inspired by Caffeine and uses the same icons as Caffeine for Linux. I wrote Espresso because Caffeine for Linux requires many unwanted dependencies including GTK3.

espresso-python's Issues

Windows 10 support

Hello!

A few infos:

• OS: Win 10 (v1803)
  • this corresponds to:

sys.getwindowsversion(major=10, minor=0, build=17134, platform=2, service_pack='')

• Python: v3.7.4
• espresso-python: latest (045f856)

As it is, using python .\espresso.py throws:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File ".\espresso.py", line 81, in <module>
    icon = TrayIcon(inhibitors.AutoSelect(), app);
  File "D:\Downloads\espresso-python-master\inhibitors.py", line 21, in AutoSelect
    raise NotImplementedError("Platform not supported")
NotImplementedError: Platform not supported

So I changed inhibitors.py's line 18 from:

elif platform.system() == "Windows" and sys.getwindowsversion().major >= 6 and sys.getwindowsversion().minor >= 1:

to:

elif platform.system() == "Windows" and (sys.getwindowsversion().major >= 6 and sys.getwindowsversion().minor >= 1) or sys.getwindowsversion().major >= 7:

Another possible solution would be to change it to sys.getwindowsversion().build >= 7601, where 7601 is Windows 7 SP 1.

It now seems to work, but I am still testing.
