pdmarf 45201bc376 v1.0.43: self-heal stale button icon when blocked by the keyDown lock
When a keyDown is blocked by the v1.0.42 lock, redraw that button to
match memRunningActionId instead of leaving whatever it was already
showing. This closes the follow-on issue found while testing 1.0.42:
a button's key image can go stale if its Notion timer was ever
stopped/started outside the plugin (e.g. a manual Notion edit), and
a blocked press was leaving that stale image in place — misleading
the user into thinking a timer was running when it wasn't, which
then caused a *real* unintended timer start on the next press.

Notion Timer — Stream Deck Plugin

A Stream Deck plugin that toggles time tracking in Notion. Press a button to start a timer against a project, press again to stop. Only one timer can run at a time.


Staff Installation

Requires Stream Deck installed and up to date.

Open Terminal and run:

curl -s https://gitea.pdmarf.co.uk/pdm/stream_deck_notion_timer/raw/branch/master/install.sh | bash

Stream Deck will open and install the plugin automatically.

First-time setup:

  1. Drag a Toggle Timer button onto a key in Stream Deck
  2. Click the button — a settings panel appears at the bottom
  3. Expand Notion Credentials and fill in your API token, then select your name from the dropdown
  4. Select your project from the Project dropdown

Uninstall & Reinstall

If the plugin is not updating or behaving unexpectedly, do a clean reinstall:

  1. Remove the plugin folder:
rm -rf ~/Library/Application\ Support/com.elgato.StreamDeck/Plugins/com.pdma.notion-timer.sdPlugin
  1. Quit and relaunch Stream Deck.

  2. Reinstall the latest version:

curl -sL https://gitea.pdmarf.co.uk/pdm/stream_deck_notion_timer/raw/branch/master/notion-timer.streamDeckPlugin -o /tmp/notion-timer.streamDeckPlugin && open /tmp/notion-timer.streamDeckPlugin

Stream Deck will install the plugin and auto-updates will work from that point on.


Auto-Updates

Updates are automatic — no action needed from staff.

The flow:

  1. Plugin starts and connects to Stream Deck
  2. After 10 seconds it checks version.json on Gitea
  3. If a newer version is available, it downloads plugin.js and plugin.js.sig
  4. The Ed25519 signature is verified against the public key embedded in the plugin
  5. If the signature is valid, the plugin overwrites itself and restarts
  6. Stream Deck relaunches the plugin on the new version

If the update server is unreachable or the signature fails, the plugin continues running on the current version unchanged.


Developer Workflow

Build & deploy locally

npm run build       # compile + sign

Then copy to Stream Deck:

cp com.pdma.notion-timer.sdPlugin/bin/plugin.js "$HOME/Library/Application Support/com.elgato.StreamDeck/Plugins/com.pdma.notion-timer.sdPlugin/bin/plugin.js"
cp com.pdma.notion-timer.sdPlugin/bin/plugin.js.sig "$HOME/Library/Application Support/com.elgato.StreamDeck/Plugins/com.pdma.notion-timer.sdPlugin/bin/plugin.js.sig"
pkill -f "notion-timer"

Release an update to staff

  1. Make your changes
  2. Bump CURRENT_VERSION in src/plugin.ts and version.json
  3. Run:
npm run package
git add .
git commit -m "v1.x.x: description"
git push

Staff machines will pick up the update within 10 seconds of their next Stream Deck start.

Signing key

The Ed25519 private key lives at ~/.notion-timer-signing-key.pem — keep this backed up. If lost, a new key pair must be generated and the plugin redistributed manually to all staff.
