aylur / ags Goto Github PK

• Just spent my night tearing out your setup to get the scss compiler working. Just thinking it'd be nice to have a guide for that in the wiki. It's a great start for eww users who are already familiar with scss.

When i try to run this app it will spit some logs like this:

I don't know the problem since i'm still kinda new to linux. Could you help me?

Hi, I suspect the keyboard layout doesn't work properly. I am using ags from the latest commit 0ee0d52, Hyprland 0.28.0-1 on ArchLinux. The config.js is updated to the latest example.
I defined

const Kbl = () => Label({
    connections: [[Hyprland, (label,kbName,layoutName) => {
	label.label = kbName? ('kb:' + kbName + ', ln: ' + layoutName ) : 'yy';
    }, 'keyboard-layout']],
});

and added Kbl() to the Right children array.
I see two issues:

1. At start, the label shows yy
2. After switching layouts in Hyprland, the label shows kb:at-translated-set2-keyboard, ln: undefined. I can confirm that layout switch works properly and I can type in all the languages. Relevant Hyprland config:

 input {
    kb_layout = us,ru,il
    kb_variant = ,phonetic,
    kb_model = pc104
    kb_options = grp:ctrl_space_toggle
    ...

Please advise. Thanks in advance

I get the following errors:

Also, I don't know if something went wrong with Aylur's dotfiles, or I'm missing some installs, but some icons seems to be bugged, as well as not being able to apply the themes, and his extension (Aylur's Widgets) is "Not compatible" apparently ? Here is what it ressembles now:

How would I got about spawning the example bar for each monitor? Cannot figure how I would do that.
I know how to spawn more of the bars. Right now it launches on the monitor that I am on when launching ags. Do I need to like add some padding or something?

Hi @Aylur ,
Given the following config:

import {
    Window
} from 'resource:///com/github/Aylur/ags/widget.js';

const InfoPopup = () => Window({
    name: 'InfoPopup',
    style: 'background-color: red',
    visible: false,
})

export default {
    windows: [
	InfoPopup(),
    ],
};

if I run ags --toggle-window 'InfoPopup', the window is shown after the command run the third time only and not the first. If the window has visible: true property, the command works obviously the second time, but it means the window should be shown immediately at the start of ags, no?
This is a reduced example, the goal is to bind onClicked: () => App.toggleWindow('InfoPopup') to a button.
Thank you in advance

If I restart ags after my system has been up for over 12 hours or so I get this error from the mpris service:

The mpris service at this point also no longer works no matter the restarting of players etc I do I have to reboot to get it working again.

Playerctl is still working as normal as are anything else I have that interacts with mpris.
I'm guessing if I used them any other service that does ListNamesRemote would also start failing.

At a loss here as I can't see anything wrong in ags and everything else on my system using dbus seems to be working fine.

First of all, this is looking like an amazing project. You clearly are putting in loads of work, so thanks! it looks very promising!

I'd love to test it out, but i'm currently running on silverblue (universal blue), so build it from source isn't any easy option.

Any chance of setting up a copr repo to make to easier for people to install and test it?

Utils.subprocess is very useful for writing custom services, and can easily equate eww's deflisten. It's a shame it's not documented in the wiki.

Also, here, empty lines are filtered out on the function level, which I don't believe should happen. I've had some scripts that output an empty line or some special value depending on the state, and I would rather keep being able to use the empty value. I think the empty lines should still be sent to the callback, and the person using the subprocess should have to filter them on their own if they choose to do so.

Trying to build this on Arch, and after meson install -C build, i get error TS2307 Cannot find modules error

Hi, I'm trying to set min value of brightness slider to 10% so my screen didn't get black.
I try:

export const BrightnessSlider = (props) =>
  Slider({
    ...props,
    drawValue: false,
    hexpand: true,
    min: 0.1,

But when I slide it still go till 0.
Am I doing something wrong?

When accessing via the setter, replace all classes.

Why: It feels more logical since a setter is meant to "set" a value, not just "append" it. As it is currently, doing widget.className in, say a setup call will simply add a class to the classNames, not replace them.

Main reason I'm bringing this up is that I'm trying to write dark/light themes for my config. My thought process was that I could have two classes, dark and light, define colors for each of them based on other, parent classes .modules.dark, .modules.light, and wrote a Service to change the classes when it emits "changed". Unfortunately, doing widget.className = Theme.theme does not replace the classes, it seems to append to it, which is a problem since then I can't really use this method without going deep into the GTK/GJS code and modifying it through a StyleContext instead.

If this isn't possible what would you suggest as an alternative to what I'm trying to do.

Hi, i was trying to install ags on archlinux and i ran into these issues

src/meson.build:2:6: ERROR: Program 'tsc' not found or not executable
and
Unknown command: meson

I fixed these issues by installing the "meson" and the "typescript" package.

sudo pacman -S meson typescript

i like the look would love to see a application or start menu. but can i use your project with labwc current labwc for example doesn't support multiple desktops aka workspaces? help info pointers or alternative config and need files would be a huge help.
i have kanashi for my wallpaper manager it uses waybg to load the wallpaper as a backend. mako for events and libindecator for tray support for different wayland bar and panles use it. wire plumber and pipewire is my sound network manager is for network and bauh if my gui application manager. i want to switch to eww instead of waybar and rofi. please help?

I am on the latest build and I seem to be having a few issues:

1. Audio is completely broken, no audio at all and the widgets are missing
   I get this error on trying to increase/decrease volume:

When I use ags with nix as a flake i get the warning:

** (ags:296756): WARNING **: 11:46:12.888: Failed to load shared library '/nix/store/xcskqs03w7nbpl7mb22prk27xq74n3jb-ags-1.0.0/lib/libgvc.so' referenced by the typelib: /nix/store/xcskqs03w7nbpl7mb22prk27xq74n3jb-ags-1.0.0/lib/libgvc.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

I checked the given path, and i found that the library is under /nix/store/xcskqs03w7nbpl7mb22prk27xq74n3jb-ags-1.0.0/lib/ags/libgvc.so which leads to the error.

So this leads me to believe the lib-patch is the cause of the error.

Clicking out of a popup window should close it. The eww way of doing this is to create an invisible button the size of the screen and close the popup when this button is pressed but I would prefer having it automatically by ags.

Hi, I just recently switched to ags and it's been amazing so far. Just found a small issue with the Mpris module not showing album art when the album art is rectangle and wanted to let you know

• The function assigned to onClick runs when the mouse button is released, not pressed
• This makes interaction feel slower
• Can we have onClick for mouse press and onClickRelease for release?

I updated Hyprland, and AGS last night, it seems that for some reason AGS no longer renders the windows on screen anymore.

There are no errors on ags side when running ags just a couple of warnings, but no windows render sadly.

Any idea on how to even debug this?

I've implemented a nightlight (using wlsunset) toggle in the quick settings.
On/Off toggling is working fine.
I have 2 problems with my implementation:

1. I have automatic script in the background that turns on nightlight in night hours and disables it in the morning. I can not work it out where should I implement timeout or interval script and how to?
2. Icon does not change on startup/on restart of ags depending on if the nightlight is enabled or disabled

What is expected behavior:
The icon is representing exact state of night-light and by clicking of the toggle I can choose to either enable/disable the night-light effect on the screen - hard switch.

This is my nightlight.js file:
https://github.com/cafetestrest/dotfiles/blob/develop/.config/ags/modules/nightlight.js

PS: Is there a right-click command of the icon?

Given that it seems the goal of ags (+ your dot files) is pretty close to making a full desktop environment, would it make sense to allow the option to have the config files inside /etc/ ?

For me, the window addresses are hexadecimal strings, not integers. So when urgent-window is fired, the window ID is always 0.

When the wifi menu is opened it doesn't show the available wifi networks and outputs:

Additional info

• Built from source on Fedora Linux 38
• NetworkManager version: 1.42.8-1.fc38
• ags version: 0.1.0

If this is a problem on my side how would I go about fixing it?

This might sound very silly and I guess understandably so but is there any possibility that the project might go under a different name? ags makes it difficult to find it and really just doesn't give any idea what it is about upfront, plus it conflicts with another project that is apparently meant to be a game engine

how do i update ags without cloning the repo again

When arriving at the step meson setup build, it fails and I got stuck trying to fix it.

Can someone give me some help

Hi, I'd like to know the reasoning on using GTK3 instead of GTK4.

Some things are easier with GTK4, just wanted to understand :)

Why? Window takes a monitor property and uses a number to determine which monitor id should be used. It breaks the logical following for Hyprland.monitors to not be mapped via numbers, because it makes it harder to try and perform any kinds of connections or setup based on a specific monitor.

Example: I want to position my bar 1% from the top and left-right. Because I can't do this via GTK css nor (from what I can find) with ags as is, I need to use Hyprland.monitors["MONITOR"].width/.height to access the properties needed for calculation, then dynamically rewrite the Window.margin property. However, because I can only access the monitors with a "name", I now need to manually loop through to find id == 0, then get its width/height props. It's just strange, please make one or the other, preferrably numbers because thats more portable across systems (laptops have eDP-1, pcs have HDMI-A-1, and who knows what else, but numbers are consistent).

EDIT:

Scratch that I can't even access window.margin from a setup call haha, are there ways to accomplish what im trying to do here?

Any possibility of supporting X11? Since it's GTK-based, I'd assume that X11 support shouldn't be impossible.

I've been looking for something better than eww, so I took a cursory glance through the wiki and examples and I'm already loving it (real icons!!!).

I'm stuck on an old machine with a legacy nvidia card, making wayland a non-option, so X11 support would be absolutely wonderful.

I want to use it on Nixos, what should I do?

All windows have to be defined inside the windows array of the default export of config.js, and we can't register new windows at runtime (I think). I would like to automatically create new bars for newly plugged in monitors so to do that ags should either:

• Support a monitor factory method in the config that would create a list of windows for a given monitor id/name.
• Support dynamic windows creation via a connect or an event to a service that will be notified when a monitor is created/destroyed.

if a monitor is turned off ags currently has to be killed and re-started, it would be great if it could re-launch any windows for that monitor.

Hey, great job @Aylur this + your dotfiles.

In few minutes I had this up and running and was great.
I think your dotfiles is a good starting point but instead of everyone doing its own ags config, we could provide one more customizable.

BUt a side from that, I wanted to ask if there is, or there's an idea to have a discord or anything to talk about ags etc and try to make it more mainstream with amazing things.

Hey @dongsu8142
I want to migrate to Gtk4, but gtk4-layer-shell is not packaged on nixpkgs. Is a flake still possible?
I could make everything work on Fedora by placing the .typelib and .so file in the correct path. On Arch gtk4-layer-shell is packaged on the AUR, and It works without tweaking. I have no idea how this works on Nix though

version: latest from git
distro: arch

I made an eventbox with OnScrollUp and OnScrollDown options, they work when I use mouse scrolling, but when I try to use touchpad they don't work.

On your ags how you choose gtk that have two bluetooth different version?

As from your eww, we can choose which gtk version to be use on the file myshell.

myshell

imports.gi.versions.Gtk = '3.0'
imports.gi.versions.Gio = '2.0'
imports.gi.versions.GLib = '2.0'
imports.gi.versions.GObject = '2.0'
imports.gi.versions.UPowerGlib = '1.0'
imports.gi.versions.GnomeBluetooth = '3.0'
imports.gi.versions.NM = '1.0'
imports.gi.versions.GdkPixbuf = '2.0'

Currently the ags process is under gjs (makes sense given it's a gjs project) but is it possible to rename it? (not sure about this - fairly new to linux development)

If there is another instance of gjs using killall etc will kill those processes also. It is also not so obvious, and would be nice to be able to pkill or killall ags

already added the input but when i try adding it to my home. nix via inputs.ags.packages.${system}.ags i get that ags is not an input.

Will there be support for a system tray

One complaint I have about the way ags seems to work the paths is that if its relative, its sourced from wherever ags was run. Now in my setup I run it through a shell executable with the PWD in $HOME, but I'd like to make my dotfiles flexible to all workloads, but I can't develop anything like that because of the way style works.

Using style: "~/.config/ags/style.css" causes ags to try and find the config in $PWD/~/.config/ags/style.css. I have to use explicit pathing, but that breaks if I use a different user, since $HOME won't work there.

One solution would be to make pathing relative to the config, which iirc is also how eww works (if we want to bring up parity with the inspiration project). Another would be to allow ~, $HOME, or just .config/ags/style.css as values that can just work as is. There's probably more solutions, and I'm open to any fix, I'd just like some clarity on this choice of path resolving.

Hi there !

Great work with ags looking forwad to use it,

How can one get intellisense on its config file using ags ?

Even better, is it possible to write it in typescript ?

Thanks in advance :)

edit : wrong repo, my bad

Currently the run-js parameter does not output anything. It would be a great addition to change that. Then it would be possible to access some internal ags services and variables from external scripts, which could be quite useful.

When the wifi menu is opened it doesn't show the available wifi networks and outputs:
