Features

• Custom System Tray icon in Mac, windows and Linux generated from a JSON

• Updates the tray menu based on the JSON file updates (watches the JSON file)

• Super small binary when compiled.

Use Case

• We wanted to provide a super simple way for people to run shell commands. This + Configurator does the trick.

• This was to help people who use IPv6rs as well as anyone who needs a system tray, period.

Example

• See the test folder to see how to use the Tray

• Build the tray-test by typing:

cd test
go run test.go config.json
