import QtQuick

// What a module declares to the drawer.
//
// A module provides a tile, a page, both, or neither. A tile with no page
// calls activate() when clicked. A module with neither is a pure background
// service. A module may also own windows outside the drawer entirely, as
// sound does with its OSD.
//
// Nothing here enforces anything: a module is free to do something unusual.
// This file is documentation with defaults.
QtObject {
    // Identifies the module to IPC: `ipc call drawer open <name>`.
    required property string name

    // Shown on the tile. A Nerd Font glyph.
    property string icon: ""

    // Label under the icon. Defaults to the name, capitalised.
    property string label: name.charAt(0).toUpperCase() + name.slice(1)

    // Whether this module's background service runs while the drawer is
    // closed. The drawer is closed most of the time, so this is what decides
    // whether the shell is cheap to run all session. It governs the service
    // only: pages are lazily loaded either way.
    property bool alwaysActive: false

    // Rendered inside the tile, below the icon: a short state line. Null for
    // a tile that says nothing beyond its label.
    property Component tileContent: null

    // The full-height page behind the tile. Null means the tile is
    // fire-and-forget and activate() is called instead.
    property Component page: null

    // What a tile with no page does when clicked.
