Crate onyx 

Cross-platform toolkit for desktop applications.

See module-level docs for surface and usage.

Modules

appearance

Reports the operating system’s current color scheme so applications can match the native light or dark theme.

clipboard

Read and write the system clipboard as plain text via per-platform backends. Mirrors the Go onyx/clipboard package.

files

Open files and URLs with the user’s default application, and reveal a path in the platform file manager.

keyring

Store, retrieve, and delete secrets in the system credential store via per-platform backends. Mirrors the Go onyx/keyring package.

machineid

Stable, per-application identifier for the current machine, persisted in the system keyring so it survives application restarts.

notify

Show desktop notifications via per-platform backends. Mirrors the Go onyx/notify package.

osinfo

Single source of truth for platform identity.

paths

Per-application platform paths (config, data, cache, logs).

process

Launches and relaunches the host application across platforms, hiding the per-OS command needed to open a fresh instance.

shell

Locate command-line executables. Each lookup target is treated as a PATH name when it has no separators, or as a file path otherwise.
