Re: Get the stdout of a sub process in an extension ?

Self-response as I found an answer :
I used glib introspection and Glib.spawn_command_line_sync to start my process and get the result.

Hello,
I'm writing an extension which gives me the time for the next bus close to my office in the status tray.
I successfully created and displayed a button close to what the clock is (I want to start an app when clicking on it).
My problem is to fill the label with the next bus time. I already have an executable which gives the time in stdout.

Maybe I am not doing things the right way and shoud use Dbus instead ? or are there any other options to put things in the status tray ?

Thank you very much,
Thomas
