Deprecates not using `polybar-msg` for IPC.
Fixes#2532Closes#2465Fixes#2504
* Create FIFO specific NamedPipeHandle subclass to PipeHandle
* Prototype SocketHandle
* Move mainloop up to main.cpp
* Pass eventloop to ipc class
* Deprecate sending ipc over the named pipe
Unfortunately, we can only show the warning in the polybar log and not
give the user any feedback because the pipe is one-way
* Move eventloop into its own namespace
* Prototype ipc socket handling
* Remove handles from ipc_client
Should be independent from eventloop logic
* Remove ipc clients when finished
* Add tests for ipc_client decoding
* Add callback for complete ipc messages
* Remove template param from mixins
* Move signal handler to new callback system
* Move poll handle to new callback system
* Move FSEventHandle to new callback system
* Move TimerHandle and AsyncHandle to new callback system
* Move PipeHandle to new callback system
* Implement socket functionality in new callback system
* Correctly reset ipc named pipe handle
* Let client close handles in error callback
* Wrap client pipe and ipc::client in connection class
* Better decoder log messages

* Remove UVHandleGeneric
* Fix error when socket folder already exists
* Proof of concept message writeback
* Restructure ipc files
* polybar-msg: Use sockets
* polybar-msg: Better syntax for actions
* Fix memory leak with fifo
After EOF, the pipe wasn't closed and EOF was called all the time, each
time allocating a new pipe.
* Make polybar-msg compile on its own
* Rudimentary writeback for polybar-msg
* Fix payload reference going out of scope.
* Add IPC documentation
* Cleanup polybar-msg code
* Specify the v0 ipc message format

* Properly close ipc connections
* Fix polybar-msg not working with action string
* Write polybar-msg manpage
* polybar-msg: Stop using exit()
* ipc: Print log message with PID
* Add tests for ipc util
* polybar-msg: Print PID with success message
* ipc: Propagate message errors
* Rename ipc::client to ipc::decoder
* Rename ipc.cpp to polybar-msg.cpp
* ipc: Write encoder function and fix decoder bugs
* ipc: Use message format for responses
* ipc: Handle wrong message types
* ipc: Write back error message if ipc message cannot be processed
This only happens for commands and empty actions.
Non-empty actions are not immediately executed, but deferred until the
next loop iteration.
* Remove TODO about deleting runtime directory
The socket file is not deleted after socket.close() is called, only
after libuv executes the close callback.
So we can't just call rmdir because it will probably always fail.
* CLeanup WriteRequest
* Update manpage authors
* Cleanup
This fixes#857 and #1932. Also replaces PR #1725, since we don't need
our own implementation of condition_variable anymore since people who
update their polybar should have GCC 10 by now.
The m_updated_at field of the mpd module was removed instead of having
its clock change because it became unused in commit 645a3142a1.
This adds a new `tray-foreground` config option, and uses it instead of
the `tray-background` setting to build up the `_NET_SYSTEM_TRAY_COLORS`
property. I'm pretty sure that the previous behavior was a mistake (this
was introduced in 94298741b6 which is a
pretty large diff). For me and some other people, this results in a
black icon being drawn on top of a black background, which is pretty
useless! I would say that this diff fixes
https://github.com/polybar/polybar/issues/2235. Note: the old code dealt
with `unsigned int` and maxed values out at 0xff. The new code deals
with `uint16_t` and maxes values out at 0xffff. I haven't found the
relevant documentation to justify this change, but from manually
testing, I'm pretty confident this is the right change.
This all matches pretty closely with this code from i3:
[`i3bar/src/xcb.c::init_tray_colors`
code](43e805a00d/i3bar/src/xcb.c (L1490-L1522)),
which you can see also uses the bar's foreground color and maxes values
out at 0xffff, not 0xff.
If you merge this up, I think we should also update
https://github.com/polybar/polybar/wiki/Configuration#bar-settings to
mention the new settings.
Fixes#2235
We had a check that restricted config files to "regular files".
This check was to restrictive as it didn't allow for things like:
```
polybar -c <(gen_config)
gen_config | polybar -c /dev/stdin
```
Now, polybar can easily read config data from stdin.
* Handle relative includes
We change to the directory of the given config file before parsing.
This allows us to handle relative includes.
TODO: Maybe improve the name of the change_dir() function.
* Fix unused result warning
* Add `relative_to` parameter to expand()
If the path is relative, we resolve it by prepending
dirname(config) to the path.
Add dirname() - Returns the parent directory of the file or an empty
string.
* Resolve relative paths
Handle paths relative to the current file being parsed.
* Remove unneeded change_dir()
* Fix expand()
`is_absolute` is calculated after we expand the path.
`relative_to` must be a directory.
Add test for expand() with relative paths
* Recalculate `is_absolute` after expanding `path`
* Add more file_util::expand tests
* Add changelog

Before it was enabled by default. That means if the constructor fails,
the destructor will complain that the module was not stopped before
deconstructing.
We can't just call stop if module creation fails because the module is
only partially initialized.
* The xworkspaces module should wait for EWMH to become available
Before this change if EWMH wasn't available the xworkspaces module was
permanently disabled. When polybar was started alongside the window
manager e.g. from .xinitrc this caused a race condition between polybar
and the window manager and the xworkspaces module may or may not be
displayed. After this change polybar will wait for EWMH to become
available. This change closes#1915, see that issue for more details.
Curiously this only required the removal of the error condition which
used the be raised when EWMH wasn't available. The xworkspaces module
will show up on the bar as soon as the first EWMH event is processed by
the existing event handling code. I can't argue much about the
correctness of this patch but it seems to work flawlessly in my testing
with xmonad. I didn't test any other window managers. Note that removing
the error condition below which checks that _NET_DESKTOP_VIEWPORT is
available might make this work with pin-workspaces=true. I couldn't test
the effects of that change because I only tested with xmonad and xmonad
doesn't support _NET_DESKTOP_VIEWPORT, so I didn't make that change.
* xworkspaces: Remove check fo _NET_DESKTOP_VIEWPORT
Implementations that don't support it will just return an empty list for
get_desktop_viewports and pin-workspaces won't do anything.
* Update changelog
Fixes#1915

* Allow running polybar without BAR argument
The configuration file must declare a single bar to be able to not name
it.
* Check barname not in config and improve error message
* Revert README changes
* Add no bar in config file error detection
* Create default config and install to /etc/polybar
Closes#2405

* config_parser: Improve error messages
This commit adds an additional context with configuration file name and
line number to some error messages in the config_parser.
* config_parser: Add file name and line number to invalid_name_error
* config_parser: Update unit tests to avoid crashes on regressions
The previous CAST_MOD(Impl) for the action_router constructor was
illegal because `this` is not yet of type Impl (because the subclass
constructor has not run yet).
The action_router now accepts std::function for its callbacks.
Fixes#2519
Fixes#1978
* Move tail and non-tail handler to method
Defining them in the constructor is ugly.
* script: Iterate over defined actions instead of fixed list
* Separate running logic and lock m_output
* Include POLYBAR_FLAGS in linker flags
* Stop using m_prev in script_runner
* Join module threads in stop function
Joining in the destructor may lead to UB because the subclass is already
deconstructed but the threads may still require it to be around (e.g.
for calling any functions on the instance)
* Cleanup script module
* Update changelog
* Remove AfterReturn class
* Remove m_stopping from script module
* Fix polybar not reading the entire line from child process.
For every `readline` call we created a new fd_streambuf. This means once
`readline` returns, the streambuf is destructed and and pending data in
its temporary buffer discarded and we never actually read it.
* Remove unused includes
Returns a list of key-value pairs starting with a prefix.
If you have in config:
```
env-FOO = bar
env-CAT = dog
```
then `get_with_prefix("env-")` will return
`[{"FOO", "bar"}, {"CAT", "dog"}]`
* Remove DEBUG_SHADED
Was disabled by default AND behind an #if 0
* Make TimerHandle expose more libuv functions
* Prepare for moving double clicks into eventloop
* Make eventloop available to bar
* Remove bar mutex
Everything in the bar is now in the same thread
* Move double-click handling to eventloop
* Extract double click deferred function into method
* Stop throttling clicks
* Increase double click interval to 400 and add option
double-click-interval in the bar section
Closes#1441
* Implement dimming using timer handles
* Remove taskqueue
* Remove unused dependencies
* Cleanup & Comments
* feat(ramp) Implement ramp weights
*Add test for ramp weights
*[drawtypes/ramp] Implement ramp weights
Simply clone `label_t` weight no. of times in the icon list
This helps us not to change any of the calculations.
*Fix silly bug
Forgot to add a hyphen for the `weight` parameter.

* Fix compile error in ramp test
Use std::make_shared.
The eventloop no longer uses them. libuv will coalesces multiple
uv_async_send if they happen one after another and this also leads to
coalescing of updates.
This is needed because the handle's lifetime has to be at least the
lifetime of the eventloop since the eventloop requires the handle's
memory during shutdown (for closing the handles).
