rofi in -modi mode is blank

See original GitHub issue

Rofi runs fine when executed by rofimoji. Yet when rofi -modi "emoji:rofimoji" -show emoji is ran, then empty rofi dialog is displayed. No errors, just empty rofi window.

Rofi config:

! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
! ROFI Color theme
! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
rofi.color-enabled: true
rofi.font: Droid Sans Mono for Powerline 10
rofi.theme: gruvbox-dark-hard
rofi.terminal: urxvtc
rofi.show-icons: true
!rofi.matching: regex
rofi.bw: 3

Bit unrelated, but is there also possible to combine rofi with other pre-existing combi options? Eg

rofi -show combi -combi-modi 'window#drun#run' -modi combi#ssh -modi emoji#rofimoji -sidebar-mode

produces no errors, but only the combi and ssh modes are displayed.

Rofimoji installed by /usr/bin/env python3 -m pip install --user --upgrade git+ssh://git@github.com/fdw/rofimoji.git

Maybe mention it in Readme to avoid future tickets like this?

That’s a good idea, thanks! I’ve just added a sentence.

Ah that explains it. Maybe mention it in Readme to avoid future tickets like this?

I’ll try to find who’s the maintainer of debian package and see if newer version can be published.

Thanks, closing.
