Update yabai extension

[webdesus]

Description

I have added two new features to the application:

1. Desktop Switch Indicator:

   • Added an indicator in the menubar that displays the current desktop.
   • Users can switch desktops by selecting the respective menubar element with the mouse.

2. New command "Windows List by Current Space":

   • Show only the applications of the current space.

Comments

• I have not found a better way to automatically subscribe to the space_changed event. Therefore, I have written instructions in the Readme file on how users can do it manually.
• I have not tested this for multiple displays. It might require some fixes for multiple displays.

HI @mil3na and nice to meet you🙂

I believe the issue may be due to System Integrity Protection (SIP) being enabled on macOS, which can restrict some functionalities(more information about SIP and yabai). I can include a note about this in the README and improve the error handling to better message for users cases when SIP is active.

But can you confirm that you didn’t turn it off? 🙂

[mil3na]

No, I didn't turn it off. Will this new feature only work with SIP off? Would love to hear @krzysztoff1 and @rubentsirunyan opinions about this.

[webdesus]

@mil3na I finally found time to check with SIP turned off and found that after my latest fixes no errors occur. 🙂 This functionality works with SIP disabled as well. The only thing that doesn't work is the space focus. But this command doesn't work in the current version of the extension either. Because for its work it is necessary to turn off SIP 🙂 Like i mention before, some functions not working for yabai. This is an article from the official documentation of Yabai.

Hi! Thanks for addressing my comments. I still have a few issues. Focus Space command doesn't work. Does it need to disable SIP? I can see the spaces on my menubar, but I can't switch among them. Also, when switching spaces manually, I always see this window:

The error when switching spaces:

Error: Command failed with exit code 1: env USER=milena /opt/homebrew/bin/yabai -m space --create
cannot create space due to an error with the scripting-addition.

[webdesus]

@mil3na yes, switching spaces is a feature that can only be accessed if SIP is disabled. My patch does not include switching functionalities. I am using a mechanism that was added before my patch🙂
