ola_set_priority(1)

✨ ola_set_priority — the manual page, but make it cute ✨

okay bestie, welcome to ola_set_priority(1), straight out of the General Commands Manual 💖 this is the little tool that goes and changes a port's priority over in olad(1), and honestly? it's giving "small but mighty". let's get into it 🫶

🌸 NAME 🌸

ola_set_priority — set an olad port's priority. that's it, that's the whole job, and she does it flawlessly 💅

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

ola_set_priority [ options ]

no positional args, no chaos, just vibes and options ✨

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so like, ola_set_priority is the one you call when you wanna set the priority of ports in olad(1). that's the entire personality. she shows up, she sets a priority, she leaves. main character energy fr fr 👑

💜 OPTIONS 💜

every single flag, accounted for, no gatekeeping:

• -h, --help — shows you the help message. the "hi bestie, here's how this works" button 🌈
• -d, --device <device> — the Id of the device whose priority you're trying to set. gotta tell her which device, she's not a mind reader 😭
• -i, --input — sets an input port. and if you don't pass this? it sets an output port instead. so it's input-if-you-ask, output-by-default, periodt ✨
• -o, --override <value> — sets the port priority to a static value. and here's the tea 🍓: if you don't use this option, the port gets set to inherit mode instead. so like, override = you pick the number, no override = she inherits. iykyk 💅
• -p, --port <port> — the Id of the port you want to set the priority of. yes you need this one too, she needs to know which port, bestie 🙈

ngl, -d, -p and one of -i/-o/-o <value> are your whole little squad here — they're all listed above, no extras, no secrets, promise 🫶
