Feature Request: Allow Users to Select File Using Window Dialog Box for File Path Option

[Zingzy]

Currently, when users select the file path option in the pomodoro_flow function, they need to manually enter the file path. This can be error-prone and inconvenient. We propose adding a feature that allows users to select a file using the window dialog box, making the process more user-friendly and reducing the likelihood of errors.

Proposed Solutions

• Integrate File Dialog Box:

  • Use a file dialog box to allow users to browse and select the file.
  • Ensure that the selected file path is automatically populated in the input field.

• Add a Button:

  • Add a button in the UI that, when clicked, opens the file selection dialog box.
  • Ensure the button is clearly labeled and easily accessible.

If this feature is planned, I would love to work on it 😄

Hello @datavorous while working on this issue, I encountered some problems, when we open a file selection dialog and select a file only the file name and a few other metadata is shared to the JS function. This bars us from getting the full path of the file... After researching a lot about some work arounds, the only method I could find was using electron which would require npm... And using npm with this project just for a small feature would not be optimal ☹️
