Feature Request: Starting / adjusting a timer from command line, or triggering vibration externally.

[gbdlin]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Currently there is no way to adjust or start/stop a timer externally. There is no way either to trigger a vibration. In certain situations it'd be useful to start the timer automatically when for example you open some software. It is also useful to trigger the vibration event externally.

Describe the solution you'd like
There should be a way to at least trigger a vibration externally, so for example some notification may end up as a vibration alert, or there would be ability to create an external timer software. Ideally, there should be a way to set up timers inside the software as well from the command line or any API.

Describe alternatives you've considered
No workarounds really exist.

Hello thank you for the request. Sound like a good idea. And actually quiet straightforward to implement (in comparison to all the issues with Wayland... :) )

• Device vibrate command via command line (feat: add command line vibrate command #211)
  projecteur -c vibrate or projecteur -c vibrate=I,L where I=intensity from 0...255 (default=128)
  and L=length 0..10 (default=0)
• set/adjust timers via command line (for a future version 1.0)
• start a specified timer via button mapping (for a future version 1.0)
