goldwarden_autofill.webm
To use this feature, either the Flatpak, or the python frontend (ui/main.py) need to be running.
You can bind this to a hotkey in your desktop environment (i.e i3/sway config file, Gnome custom shortcuts, etc).
dbus-send --type=method_call --dest=com.quexten.Goldwarden.autofill /com/quexten/Goldwarden com.quexten.Goldwarden.Autofill.autofill
On Gnome, to set this up for CTRL+u:
gsettings set org.gnome.settings-daemon.plugins.media-keys custom-keybindings "['/org/gnome/settings-daemon/plugins/media-keys/custom-keybindings/gwautofill/']"
gsettings set org.gnome.settings-daemon.plugins.media-keys.custom-keybinding:/org/gnome/settings-daemon/plugins/media-keys/custom-keybindings/gwautofill/ name 'Goldwarden Autofill'
gsettings set org.gnome.settings-daemon.plugins.media-keys.custom-keybinding:/org/gnome/settings-daemon/plugins/media-keys/custom-keybindings/gwautofill/ command 'dbus-send --type=method_call --dest=com.quexten.Goldwarden.autofill /com/quexten/Goldwarden com.quexten.Goldwarden.Autofill.autofill'
gsettings set org.gnome.settings-daemon.plugins.media-keys.custom-keybinding:/org/gnome/settings-daemon/plugins/media-keys/custom-keybindings/gwautofill/ binding '<Ctrl><Alt>a'
By default, the remote desktop portal is used on Wayland. As long as your desktop environment handle this (KDE and Gnome do, wlroots does not yet). On XOrg no portal is required. On Windows/Mac pyautogui is used.
