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

* 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

* 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

for calling any functions on the instance)
* Cleanup script module

* 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

*doc: add #1750 to CHANGELOG
* 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.
The scroll handler had two issues:
* It did not respect the order the desktops where displayed in

* fix(monitor): do not include outputs when monitors are supported
Previously, when splitting an output into two monitors, `polybar -m`
would report both the splitted monitors and the output. This was not
caught by the the clone detection as the detection works by removing
monitors contained into another monitors (and monitors were excluded
from that logic) and we want the other way around: outputs covered by
monitors should be ignored.
Instead of trying to detect covered outputs, the solution is quite
simple: when monitors are supported, do not consider outputs, unless
we request all outputs. A monitor can be set primary (and RandR
reports primary outputs as primary monitors). The only information we
would miss from monitors are things like refresh rate and EDID. We
don't need that, so we are fine.
As monitors are only created for connected output (and they are in
this case "active") or disconnected output if they are mapped (and
they are in this case "inactive"), I am a bit unsure if we have
exactly the same behaviour as previously when `connected_only` is set
to `false`.
As some modules require an output, we keep the output in the
`monitor_t` structure and we ensure it is correctly set when using
monitors. A monitor can have 0 or several outputs. We only handle the
0 and 1 cases. When a monitor has more outputs, only the first one is
used. AFAIK, only the xbacklight module needs that and I think we are
fine waiting for a user needing this module and merging monitors.
The C++ binding fail to expose the `outputs()` method to iterate over
the outputs of a monitor. This seems to be a bug in XPP. The field is
correctly defined in the RandR XML file and it works with the Python
binding.
```xml
<struct name="MonitorInfo">
<field type="ATOM" name="name" />
<field type="BOOL" name="primary" />
<field type="BOOL" name="automatic" />
<field type="CARD16" name="nOutput" />
<field type="INT16" name="x" />
<field type="INT16" name="y" />
<field type="CARD16" name="width" /> <!-- pixels -->
<field type="CARD16" name="height" /> <!-- pixels -->
<field type="CARD32" name="width_in_millimeters" />
<field type="CARD32" name="height_in_millimeters" />
<list type="OUTPUT" name="outputs">
<fieldref>nOutput</fieldref>
</list>
</struct>
```
Falling back to C only to access the list of outputs is not enough
because the list is appended to the structure and not visible through
the public API. When copied, the structure loses the list of monitors.
Also, change the mention "XRandR monitor" to "no output" when there is
no output attached. People using monitors know what it means and it is
useful to catch a future regression where we don't have an output at
all (which would break the brightness plugin).

This adds the 'send' action to the ipc module that can be used to send arbitrary text to the module:
polybar-msg action "#ipc.send.%{F#4444ff}hello%{F-}"
* feat(ipc): allow receiving arbitrary text on IPC socket
Instead of just allowing hook numbers to be executed, the user can
send arbitrary text and the IPC module will put it in the bar. The IPC
payload format is extended to accept an arbitrary string if the first
character after the module name is ':'.
polybar-msg hook test :'%{F#4444ff}hello%{F-}'

`action_toggle_visible` -> `action_toggle_visibility`
Matches with `EVENT_TOGGLE_VISIBILITY`
* Update CHANGELOG
* Revert #2320 IPC commands
IPC commands are no longer necessary now that the actions are
implemented. Changed some method permissions as well to reflect this.
* Add logging and change action names
- `module_toggle`
- `module_show`
- `module_hide`
Delineate common actions to all modules with a `module_` prefix (for
future actions too)
* Update documentation
XCB_BACK_PIXMAP_PARENT_RELATIVE requires that the client has the same
depth as the tray window.
There was an issue with dropbox having a depth of 32 and the tray window
having a depth of 24 that caused the configuration of the icon to fail.
It would then be displayed outside of the bar because the catch block
was not hit (different exception).
We now just don't configure XCB_CW_BACK_PIXMAP. This seems to work and
is also what stalonetray does.
This does not fix the issue with dropbox having an arbitrary background.
Fixes#1679Fixes#2430
Before sphinx 4.0, this was the default but was changed in 4.0.
Now by default the folder structure looks like this:
man
├── 1
│ └── polybar.1
└── 5
└── polybar.5
This restores the old behavior where there weren't individual folders
for the different sections.

* Add wm-restack=generic to lower polybar to the bottom of the stack
Previously wm-restack only supported bspwm and i3. Both have a special
top-level window that polybar detects and places itself directly above.
This patch adds wm-restack=generic which simply lowers polybar to the
very bottom of the stack. This option was tested and confirmed to work
with xmonad which doesn't have a special top-level window and therefore
doesn't require special handling like bspwm and i3.

Add a config parser method which, for now, deals only with escaping the
literal backslash character and logs an error message to inform the user
of the coming change.
The error message includes a properly escaped value for the user.
As a result of introducing an escape character('\'):
- Warn the user of any unescaped backslashes, as they will not be
treated as a literal character in the future
- For now, still treat a single backslash as a literal character
- Treat two consecutive backslashes as a single properly escaped
literal backslash
Also:
- Add documentation about the escape character to polybar(5) manpage
- Add info about the escape character to changelog
- Add testcases for ParseLineKeyTest
- Add new test ParseEscapedValueTest
Resolves: First step in #2354
Improve value parsing
- Take value arg in as an rvalue reference and move parsed value back
- Remove unnecessary if statement
- Rename function
- Improve error message
- Improve function description
- Format
