How to show context menu in QSystemTrayIcon on left click

QSystemTrayIcon Docs

Ive been looking through the documentation for this widget. I have a working icon and a context menu, however i would like to be able to also show the context menu when someone left clicks. Is this possible?

You could connect the QSystemTrayIcon.activated signal to call QMenu.popup when the activation reason is QSystemTrayIcon.Trigger.

import sys
from PySide2.QtWidgets import *
from PySide2.QtGui import *

class TrayIcon(QSystemTrayIcon):

    def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
        super().__init__(*args, **kwargs)
        self.activated.connect(self.showMenuOnTrigger)

    def showMenuOnTrigger(self, reason):
        if reason == QSystemTrayIcon.Trigger:
            self.contextMenu().popup(QCursor.pos())


if __name__ == '__main__':
    app = QApplication(sys.argv)
    tray = TrayIcon(QIcon('icon.png'))
    menu = QMenu()
    menu.addAction('Action 1')
    menu.addAction('Action 2')
    tray.setContextMenu(menu)
    tray.show()
    sys.exit(app.exec_())
