stop automagic service from automagic flow

[xpdev]

Hi

there is a way to stop "automagic service" directly from an automagic flow ?

Thanks.

Hi,

No, there's no such action. The service is required to execute flows, so even when such an action would exist, you could not automatically start Automagic again from Automagic.
How would you like to use such an action?

A "toggle service" widget would also be very useful for clearing AM from system resources when using more intensive apps like DraStic which pushes my GN2 pretty hard.

Hi Martin

I was thinking about creating a persistent notification with "pause" "restart" and "Kill" buttons, something like in the image below.

Obviously I need the ability to stop the "automagic service"

Any way ?

Hi,

I still don't understand what you want to achieve. You could use Set Flow State to disable/enable certain flows. I could also add an action to stop the service, but you would need to manually launch Automagic to restart Automagic so that Automagic is allowed to execute flows/actions again. You can not define a flow that is executed by your own Automagic notification when Automagic is stopped.
