dfdea33389Before, if you restarted the WM with windows already present, any non-focused window would just not have a border (because borderes are only drawn on focus change, which happens for all new windows, but not exisiting ones). I guess this probably would've happened if users add new windows appending and didn't focus on new window spawns? Anyways, now we just tell new windows they're unfocused to draw the border on first render. |

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 |
Optional (for building man pages):
| Dependency | Gentoo Name | Debian/Ubuntu Name |
|---|---|---|
| scdoc | app-text/scdoc |
scdoc |
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.
