# Swaysome This binary helps you configure sway to work a bit more like Awesome. This currently means workspaces that are name-spaced on a per-screen basis. It may also work with i3, but this is untested. *swaysome* should be compatible with [sworkstyle](https://lib.rs/crates/sworkstyle). ## Installation Arch Linux: Found on the AUR as [swaysome-git](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/swaysome-git). If you have Rust installed, then you can just `cargo install swaysome` and you're good to go. Otherwise, you may grab a [pre-built binary](https://gitlab.com/hyask/swaysome/-/jobs/artifacts/master/raw/target/release/swaysome?job=build:cargo) from the CI and put it in your `$PATH`. **WARNING**: please double-check that your `swaysome` binary is in `sway`'s `$PATH`. Depending on your setup, the `$PATH` you have in your shell may not be the same as `sway`'s, and if `swaysome` can't be called by `sway`, the symptoms will only look like non-functional shortcuts. If you're in this situation, a quick workaround is to call `swaysome` with its full absolute path from `sway`'s config to check that everything works before fixing your `$PATH` issue. ## Usage Then create the file (and the directory if needed) `~/.config/sway/config.d/swaysome.conf` and paste this inside: ``` # Change focus between workspaces unbindcode $mod+10 unbindcode $mod+11 unbindcode $mod+12 unbindcode $mod+13 unbindcode $mod+14 unbindcode $mod+15 unbindcode $mod+16 unbindcode $mod+17 unbindcode $mod+18 unbindcode $mod+19 bindcode $mod+10 exec "swaysome focus 1" bindcode $mod+11 exec "swaysome focus 2" bindcode $mod+12 exec "swaysome focus 3" bindcode $mod+13 exec "swaysome focus 4" bindcode $mod+14 exec "swaysome focus 5" bindcode $mod+15 exec "swaysome focus 6" bindcode $mod+16 exec "swaysome focus 7" bindcode $mod+17 exec "swaysome focus 8" bindcode $mod+18 exec "swaysome focus 9" bindcode $mod+19 exec "swaysome focus 0" # Move containers between workspaces unbindcode $mod+Shift+10 unbindcode $mod+Shift+11 unbindcode $mod+Shift+12 unbindcode $mod+Shift+13 unbindcode $mod+Shift+14 unbindcode $mod+Shift+15 unbindcode $mod+Shift+16 unbindcode $mod+Shift+17 unbindcode $mod+Shift+18 unbindcode $mod+Shift+19 bindcode $mod+Shift+10 exec "swaysome move 1" bindcode $mod+Shift+11 exec "swaysome move 2" bindcode $mod+Shift+12 exec "swaysome move 3" bindcode $mod+Shift+13 exec "swaysome move 4" bindcode $mod+Shift+14 exec "swaysome move 5" bindcode $mod+Shift+15 exec "swaysome move 6" bindcode $mod+Shift+16 exec "swaysome move 7" bindcode $mod+Shift+17 exec "swaysome move 8" bindcode $mod+Shift+18 exec "swaysome move 9" bindcode $mod+Shift+19 exec "swaysome move 0" # Focus workspace groups unbindcode $mod+Ctrl+10 unbindcode $mod+Ctrl+11 unbindcode $mod+Ctrl+12 unbindcode $mod+Ctrl+13 unbindcode $mod+Ctrl+14 unbindcode $mod+Ctrl+15 unbindcode $mod+Ctrl+16 unbindcode $mod+Ctrl+17 unbindcode $mod+Ctrl+18 unbindcode $mod+Ctrl+19 bindcode $mod+Ctrl+10 exec "swaysome focus-group 1" bindcode $mod+Ctrl+11 exec "swaysome focus-group 2" bindcode $mod+Ctrl+12 exec "swaysome focus-group 3" bindcode $mod+Ctrl+13 exec "swaysome focus-group 4" bindcode $mod+Ctrl+14 exec "swaysome focus-group 5" bindcode $mod+Ctrl+15 exec "swaysome focus-group 6" bindcode $mod+Ctrl+16 exec "swaysome focus-group 7" bindcode $mod+Ctrl+17 exec "swaysome focus-group 8" bindcode $mod+Ctrl+18 exec "swaysome focus-group 9" bindcode $mod+Ctrl+19 exec "swaysome focus-group 0" # Move containers to other workspace groups unbindcode $mod+Ctrl+Shift+10 unbindcode $mod+Ctrl+Shift+11 unbindcode $mod+Ctrl+Shift+12 unbindcode $mod+Ctrl+Shift+13 unbindcode $mod+Ctrl+Shift+14 unbindcode $mod+Ctrl+Shift+15 unbindcode $mod+Ctrl+Shift+16 unbindcode $mod+Ctrl+Shift+17 unbindcode $mod+Ctrl+Shift+18 unbindcode $mod+Ctrl+Shift+19 bindcode $mod+Ctrl+Shift+10 exec "swaysome move-to-group 1" bindcode $mod+Ctrl+Shift+11 exec "swaysome move-to-group 2" bindcode $mod+Ctrl+Shift+12 exec "swaysome move-to-group 3" bindcode $mod+Ctrl+Shift+13 exec "swaysome move-to-group 4" bindcode $mod+Ctrl+Shift+14 exec "swaysome move-to-group 5" bindcode $mod+Ctrl+Shift+15 exec "swaysome move-to-group 6" bindcode $mod+Ctrl+Shift+16 exec "swaysome move-to-group 7" bindcode $mod+Ctrl+Shift+17 exec "swaysome move-to-group 8" bindcode $mod+Ctrl+Shift+18 exec "swaysome move-to-group 9" bindcode $mod+Ctrl+Shift+19 exec "swaysome move-to-group 0" # Move focused container to next output bindcode $mod+o exec "swaysome next-output" # Move focused container to previous output bindcode $mod+Shift+o exec "swaysome prev-output" # Init workspaces for every screen exec "swaysome init 1" ``` Finally append your `sway` configuration with this: ``` include ~/.config/sway/config.d/*.conf ``` You should end-up with workspaces from `1` to `0`, prefixed with a screen index, giving you workspace `11` on the first screen, and workspace `21` on the second one, both accessible with shortcut `$mod+1` when focused on the right output. The `init` command simply walks through every screen to initialize a prefixed workspace. It does it backwards so that you end-up focused on the first screen, as usual. ## Exhaustive swaysome commands list * `move [name]`: move the focused container to `[name]` on the same group * `move-to-group [id]`: move the focused container to the same relative workspace on the `[id]` workspace group * `next-output`: move the focused container to the next output * `prev-output`: move the focused container to the previous output * `focus [name]`: change focus to `[name]` on the same group * `focus-all-outputs [name]`: change all outputs focus to `[name]` * `focus-group [id]`: change focus to group `[id]` * `next-group`: change focus to the next workspace group * `previous-group`: change focus to the previous workspace group * `init [name]`: cycle all outputs to create a default workspace with name `[name]` * `rearrange-workspaces` Rearrange already opened workspaces to the correct outputs, useful when plugging or unplugging screens ## Breaking changes * Starting with 2.0, `next_output` and `prev_output` have been changed to `next-output` and `prev-output`.
