9b0bac12ffBefore, we were missing the initial events from the wl_output, including the scale. This meant that we weren't scaling the bar clock correctly. To fix it, we just moved the wl_global binding into the .wl_output event We also got rid of the hashmap of outputs in Globals and Context. |

beansprout
Overview
A tiling window manager for the river Wayland compositor written in Zig. The window manager communicates using the river-window-management-v1 protocol, as well as some of River's additional Wayland protocols.
Beansprout uses a primary/stack tiling layout inspired by dwm with a customizable ratio and primary count. Similarly, beansprout has a 32-bit tag system, rather than workspaces. Each output has its own tags and own primary count/ratio.
Building
Requires Zig 0.15.1 or later.
Dependencies
To compile beansprout, you'll need the dependencies found below. I've listed the package names for Gentoo and Debian/Ubuntu, but they likely exist on all major distros.
Needed at both build-time and runtime:
| Dependency | Gentoo Name | Debian/Ubuntu Name |
|---|---|---|
| wayland-client | dev-libs/wayland |
libwayland-dev |
| pixman | x11-libs/pixman |
libpixman-1-dev |
| xkbcommon | x11-libs/libxkbcommon |
libxkbcommon-dev |
| fcft | media-libs/fcft |
libfcft-dev |
Only needed at build-time:
| Dependency | Gentoo Name | Debian/Ubuntu Name |
|---|---|---|
| wayland-protocols | dev-libs/wayland-protocols |
wayland-protocols |
Note for Gentoo Users
Beansprout is available in my personal ebuild repo. Right now, it's just a live ebuild, but I will add versioned ebuilds once v0.1.0 is released.
Build
Build and install with:
zig build -Doptimize=ReleaseSafe --prefix ~/.local install
Run zig build -h to see a list of all options.
Usage
You can either add beansprout to the river init file or directly run river -c beansprout.
If you need to exit river, for example, if beansprout crashes, you can use river's hardcoded
Ctrl+Alt+Delete keybind.
Configuration
Beansprout is configured with a KDL file at
$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/beansprout/config.kdl. See docs/CONFIGURATION.md
for a full reference and examples/config.kdl for an example config.
