sway-interactive-screenshot is as simple bash script to take screenshot easly on sway. Just launch the script and it will ask you what you want to take a screenshot.

If you are using Archlinux, you can install sway-interactive-screenshot with the AUR package sway-interactive-screenshot (e.g. yay -S sway-interactive-screenshot).

• swaywm obviously
• jq to parse swaymsg JSON response that lists windows
• rofi to prompt what you want to take a screenshot of
• grim to take the screenshot
• slurp to select an area on the screen
• swappy (optional) to edit the captured screenshot
• notify-send to send a notification to notification daomon (such as mako)
• wl-copy to copy the screenshot to the clipboard

To bind this script to the Print key, just add this to your ~/.config/sway/config:

bindsym Print exec /path/to/sway-interactive-screenshot

By default, sway-interactive-screenshot saves the screenshots in the home directory. You can change that by setting the SWAY_INTERACTIVE_SCREENSHOT_SAVEDIR environment variable to another directory.
