a shakeable sleep timer for media players on SailfishOS
Slumber is a sleep timer program for SailfishOS with sensors support.

This means you can use the accelerometer or proximity sensor to reset the timer if the display is lit: Just place your device on your bed and slap the mattress in it's general direction to reset the timer. You can enable a notification to wake your display or, on some devices, use "double tap to wake".

You can pause:

  • Local media (using MPRIS2)
  • Network players (Kodi, VLC)

If you're still awake, you can reset the timer a bunch of ways:

  • Accelerometer (shake it)
  • Proximity sensor (wave your hand)
  • Smartwatch control (Amazfish integration for some watch models)
  • By just pausing/starting the media player. (Useful for Headphones with remote control)

There are a lot of other options available for the end of the timer duration, for example:

  • Pause local media (obviously) and Kodi/VLC over wifi
  • Fade out media volume (and reset it afterwards)
  • Play a sound effect at the end of the timer to let you know it runs out
  • Disconnect Bluetooth headphones (or all BT devices)
  • Enter airplane mode
  • … and more.

Known restrictions

  • Does not work in Sailfish Browser
  • Sensors won't work when Display is off. But there is an option to keep it on while the timer runs. Also, you can enable a notification to turn the display on again.
  • Phone Vibration might trigger Accelerometer. (Well…)

since upgrade to SFOS 4.4, integration to talefish (and i think other players etc.) do not work anymore. (in  Talefish: "Install slumber to activete this option"). Reinistall both (Talefish and slumber) with no effect.

velox's picture

Hi, thanks for letting me know...

I haven't had much time lately and my main device wasn't even updated. The new releases for slumber/Talefish now opted out of Sailjail to be able to keep the more advanced use cases available.

Let me know if it works for you. 

Oh, if you're using privileged actions inside slumber, you may have to revoke and grant rights once.

 

cheers!

sponka's picture

OMG ... Silly me. Now that happens if you dont test everything. Sorry and thanks!

velox's picture

No worries, that could have easily been an error – so thanks for bringing it up!

cheers!

sponka's picture

Tested and working, thanks for quick update! And I also had time to update translation ;) One question - now we have pull down option and gear icon on homepage, both open options panel. Am I missing something or is this some kind of test, which option works better? I give my vote to gear :)

velox's picture

Thanks for testing!
You must have enabled the shortcut in the settings. The option is there to quickly enter settings when the timer is running – because then, the pulley only consists of "stop timer" to simplify "blind" useage.

cheers!

sponka's picture

Hello, version 0.9-1, slovenian (sl_SI) translation not working, not a single element translated.

velox's picture

Hi! Thanks for reporting and sorry for this. I tried to simplify transifex updates but obviously that didn't work well. And then there were some other issues preventing me from releasing the fixed version. Should now be fixed for 0.9-2 – please tell me if it works for you.

DarkTuring's picture

Longpress function works like a charm.

velox's picture

Thanks for checking ot out!

DarkTuring's picture

Suggestions for improvement:

1. show small simple digital clock above or below timer,

2. fade out music once timer closes when playing music,

3. allow edit of time from top screen without having to enter settings, simply do long press on timer which popups the edit time menue.

velox's picture

Local fade out is now finally implemented! Please tell me if it's working for you in the recent build.

velox's picture

Hi, thanks for the suggestions!

  1.  Do you mean the time when the timer will be running out? Or just a normal clock?
  2. I've tried to do that. Sadly, I have not even managed to query the current global volume. If someone knows how: Pull requests on github are really appreciated :)
  3. I have not thought of that. Nice Idea.
DarkTuring's picture

On item two global volume can be set like this:

pactl set-sink-volume 1 80%

If you create a loop to reduce it incrementally 100%-10% then turn off/ stop music play, streaming, then restore volume to original level pre-sound fade loop.

 

 

 

velox's picture

I think (no promises ;)) I'd be able to set the volume through "misusing" media elements from QML already, the problem is querying the current volume before that – preferably through pure QML/JS, as well. Thanks for inquiring, though :)

DarkTuring's picture

your welcome, 1. just a plain normal clock, 2. ill dig around and will let you know if i find anything, 3. more direct workflow, otherwise pulldown for direct time edit could work too.

velox's picture

I've done 3) on the weekend. It's on github for now – I think I'll have time to release a build during the week.

DarkTuring's picture

@velox sweet! i think those will be great additions for users of your app! cant wait to try.

velox's picture

I've decided against adding a clock to keep the interface minimalistic, but the long press shortcut is in the build released today. Thanks for the suggestion!

Ingvix's picture

How about a setting to fading volume at the last minute or something and then turn the playback off when the timer reaches zero?

velox's picture

That's actually something I had in my very first proof of concepts, but I wasn't satisfied with how it worked out (also it would have been a pain to implement it for network players and I really wanted the experience to be basically the same), so I removed that feature before it was finished. If I get an idea how to implement it nicely (or someone wants to make a pull request on github for it) it might happen at some point in the future, though.

Ingvix's picture

Okay, I hope you or someone figures it out soon. I only use the phone's output with slumber so the phone's volume fading would be satisfying for me.

velox's picture

Local fade out is now finally implemented! Please tell me if it's working for you in the recent build.

Ingvix's picture

It's nice but can you make the fade out time customizable? I'd prefer very slow fade out to the current 10 seconds.

Also one improvement came to my mind. Would it be possible make a feature to kill an app when the timer goes off? Currently there's no native app that plays Youtube streams so I use an Android app WebTube for that but it doesn't seem to have a support for the native controllers to pause the video so it would be nice if the app could kill the app after fading out the volume.

ZeiP's picture

Oh yeah, one suggestion: If it'd be possible to ignore the vibrates caused by the phone itself (notifications etc.), that'd be cool.

velox's picture

Brilliant Idea – but I have no way of telling phone vibrations from other movements. Also, the Vibration on my Phone is actually broken. If someone reads this and has a clue if vibrations can be detected, I'd be delighted to be told how.

ZeiP's picture

Installed ok on the new Sailfish 2.0.0.10. Pausing works as expected with CuteSpot, and the reset options also seemed well-defined (at least the first three, which I tried.) Well done, thanks!

velox's picture

Awesome, thanks for testing!

Mariusmssj's picture

Really coop app, will be testing it tonight
