Plugin

  • Id: kenn/keybind-cheatsheet
  • New plugin
  • Update to an existing plugin (version bumped in plugin.toml)

What it does

This update introduces a major architectural refactor to resolve host CPU callback timeouts and fixes reported community issues:

  1. Data Service Architecture (service.luau):

    • Offloads configuration parsing and cache ownership to a background service ([[service]] id = "data").
    • Panel opening (panel.luau) is now instant (0ms) and renders pre-parsed snapshots from memory without performing synchronous file I/O.
    • Eliminates polling timers, watchers, and panel-tick schedulers.
  2. Bug Fixes:

  3. Metadata & API:

    • Updated plugin_api = 9 for Noctalia v5 compatibility.

Note for @rylos: Once this v0.2.2 release is merged, PR #333 can rebase on top of this clean baseline to add your Niri 3x parsing speedup and 15s refresh timeout recovery!

External dependencies

  • hyprctl (used only for Hyprland Lua live bind queries)

Testing

  • Tested on Niri
  • Tested on Hyprland
  • Tested on Sway
  • Tested on another compositor:
  • Noctalia version tested against: v5.0.0
  • Plugin API level: 9

Screenshots / Videos

No visual changes to the UI surface. Rendered keybinding layout remains identical to v0.2.1.

Checklist

  • The directory name matches the part of id after the / in plugin.toml exactly.
  • It ships plugin.toml, README.md, thumbnail.webp, and translations/en.json.
  • README.md follows the
    README template, documents
    every entry id and dependency, and includes exact panel IPC commands and launcher prefixes where applicable.
  • I created thumbnail.webp with the thumbnail generator.
  • version follows semver and is bumped in this PR; plugin_api is the oldest API level this plugin requires.
  • Every non-English translation in this PR uses a locale supported by Noctalia core, and I can read, write, and
    understand that language well enough to review and maintain it (no unreviewed machine/LLM translations).
  • I did not edit catalog.toml; CI generates it.
  • This PR touches exactly one plugin directory.

Code review attestation

Plugins run as trusted, unsandboxed Luau in the user's session. Confirm:

  • The code is readable and not obfuscated, minified, or generated.
  • It does not download and execute remote code.
  • Every network call, filesystem write, and spawned process is something the description above accounts for.
  • I have the right to publish this code under the license declared in plugin.toml.
