Hyprland rice help

[pearl willow]

I get a cmake error

[echo ermine]

Try installing that package

[pearl willow]

How

Yay doesn't work

I think

[topaz stump]

@pearl willow don't take people's dots, you don't know how to use them

[echo ermine]

With pacman

[echo ermine]

sudo pacman -S gtksourceviewmm

[pearl willow]

Do I just build one from scratch?

[topaz stump]

yes, with help

[echo ermine]

Ideally yeah

[pearl willow]

Welp time to make one

Hyprland rice help

[topaz stump]

first, you will need a bar, the most popular is waybar

[echo ermine]

What I do instead of downloading dots is I just look inside the dots and see how it works

[pearl willow]

Got it

[echo ermine]

Waybar has great documentation

[topaz stump]

this is mine

[topaz stump]

@pearl willow remove the git version

[pearl willow]

What command

I forgor

[topaz stump]

pacman -Rns hyprland-git

[pearl willow]

There's no hyprland-git

[topaz stump]

sudo pacman -Rns hyprpaper-git

[pearl willow]

None

Uhh

[topaz stump]

@pearl willow sudo pacman -Rns hyprgraphics-git

[pearl willow]

Removing hyprgraphics breaks dependencies

what.

Imma RM -rf this

[topaz stump]

don't do that

[echo ermine]

Can’t you just umm yay -Rcs hyprland-git?

[pearl willow]

I'll try

That worked

😭

[echo ermine]

Yeah -c removes dependencies

[pearl willow]

Worked

Lol

What's next

I got hyprpaper and waybar now

[echo ermine]

App launcher

[topaz stump]

install the regular version of hyprland

rofi-wayland is popular

[pearl willow]

Rofi

[echo ermine]

There’s also wofi

[pearl willow]

Love that

What's the difference between the two

[echo ermine]

I use something completely different I forgot the name

[topaz stump]

rofi-wayland is rofi, but for wayland

[echo ermine]

Wofi is just Wayland rofi

[pearl willow]

I love the text type of app launcher so wofi

How do I put it on like waybar

Or somethin

[topaz stump]

ama

@pearl willow

[pearl willow]

I know

[echo ermine]

You can make a custom module that launches wofi on click

[pearl willow]

How

[topaz stump]

not recommended

[pearl willow]

Well im a keyboard type of guy anyway

[echo ermine]

Yeah I wouldn’t do that myself

[pearl willow]

Hmm

[topaz stump]

this is not hyprland

[pearl willow]

It's awesome the window manager you are using

[topaz stump]

no

[pearl willow]

Or bspwm

Sway?

[topaz stump]

dwl, the wayland version of dwm

[pearl willow]

Oh

Well I'm trying to figure out how to launch wofi with keyboard bind

What's the bind?

[echo ermine]

Check hyprland config

[topaz stump]

@pearl willow rofi -show drun -show-icons

[echo ermine]

If it isn’t there then make it

[pearl willow]

I'm in the config file

Turns out it was r

💀

Okay next up is to change the waybar style

[echo ermine]

r for rofi 👍

[pearl willow]

I'm the dumb one

How to change waybar style

[echo ermine]

In the config

Which by default is in /etc/waybar/

You’d probably want copy to ~/.config/waybar/ tho

[topaz stump]

follow this https://github.com/Alexays/Waybar/wiki/Module:-Hyprland

[pearl willow]

Before I mess things inside they waybar

How do I make my window like draggable

[topaz stump]

what windows?

[echo ermine]

Super v untiles them

Super lmb to move

[pearl willow]

Odd way to move windows

[echo ermine]

Makes sense tho

[pearl willow]

Yeah

[echo ermine]

You can click anywhere

[pearl willow]

Okay

Let's go back to waybar customization

[echo ermine]

It has two files

[topaz stump]

*3

[pearl willow]

First off where's etc located?

[topaz stump]

cp /etc/waybar ~/.config/waybar

[echo ermine]

Just /etc

[echo ermine]

By default it’s 2

[pearl willow]

There's no waybar file

[echo ermine]

Where?

[pearl willow]

This got confusing now

Where the hell is the waybar file

[topaz stump]

@pearl willow

[echo ermine]

Its a directory in /etc

Not a file

The files are config.jsonc and style.css

[topaz stump]

sudo pacman -S waybar

[echo ermine]

cp -r

[pearl willow]

Done that nothin

[echo ermine]

Interesting

[topaz stump]

no slash

cd /etc/waybar

mkdir ~/.config/waybar

[pearl willow]

Still nothing

[echo ermine]

Is waybar even installed tho

[pearl willow]

It is

[topaz stump]

cp -r * ~/.config/waybar

cd ~/.config/waybar

ls

sudo pacman -S discord flameshot

[echo ermine]

Well in that case

[topaz stump]

bind flameshot to print screen

open discord

[echo ermine]

It exists

Try check again

[topaz stump]

which waybar

[pearl willow]

There's no directory for waybar

[echo ermine]

Interesting so it just doesn’t exist

[topaz stump]

cd ~/.config

mkdir waybar

cd waybar

[echo ermine]

You could download the example configs from the repo

[pearl willow]

I'm in waybar now thanks

[static plaza]

killertofus received a thank you cookie!

[topaz stump]

touch config.jsonc

git clone https://github.com/Alexays/Waybar/

cp * /Waybar/resources .

[pearl willow]

Clone that?

[topaz stump]

yes

ls

[pearl willow]

How to bind flameshot

[topaz stump]

@pearl willow like this https://wiki.hyprland.org/Configuring/Binds/

[pearl willow]

my brain is fried

[topaz stump]

@pearl willow I wouldn't recommended using a wm for my first use of a wm in arch, I would recommended using a de to get to know arch a little bit better, then use a wm

[pearl willow]

dw a little rest can give me more brain power

[pearl willow]

@topaz stump i think i need the waybar to use flameshot

[echo ermine]
