A window can have the urgent hint set while being in a focused tag if that
window is not in focus. As a result, the urgent state should overrule the
focused state.
I also added a pretty truth table.
Don't get the socket path from cmake or from an environment variable. Instead,
get it from the polybar config. If it's not specified, the default is
/tmp/dwm.sock which is default for the IPC patch.
This way is easier for the user to configure.
When this package is not installed, the struct randr type never gets fully
defined because randr.hpp never gets included. This causes the build to fail in
update_monitor_ref.
See issue mihirlad55/polybar-dwm-module#10.
Sleep before trying to reconnect to the dwm socket after a detected
disconnection. If dwm is restarted in place, in most cases the reconnect will
fail before dwm gets a change to re-setup itself and the socket. A 1-second
delay can provide enough time for dwm to reinitalize itself before polybar
attempts to reconnect. As a result, the module can recovoer instead of the
entire application just quitting.
Check the formatter for the tags label, and if it doesn't exist, there's no need
to initialize the tags array or listen to tag change events. Also, check to see
if tags are being used before trying to update them from the
on_monitor_focus_change function.
To keep consistency, use functions to update all labels. Since the labels have
tokens that have to be replaced, if this needed to be changed, or if the label
updating code needed to be changed, it could easily be done in one place without
having to scour the code for all places where the label is updated. It improves
refactorability.
This decouples the token replacement of labels from other functions and keeps
that code contained to the update label functions.
Since functions like update_title_label and update_floating_label already exist,
it makes sense to stick with this pattern of using functions to update the
labels. For updating the labels in different ways, overloaded functions can
simply be used.
This label is visible when the currently focused client is in floating mode and
detached from the layout. It uses the focused_state_change_event as well as the
focused_client_change_event to check if the focused client is floating and
updates m_is_floating accordingly which will enable/disbale the floating label
in the final output.
update_floating_label is called when the floating state of the client is not
known. The function queries dwm for the properties of the focused client and
sets m_is_floating accordingly.
This fixes issue #2.
Instead of defining the event name for each event, define the command name that
is to be called for that event. This simplifies the code since many events call
the same command. It is already clear from the cmd function which event is being
registered, so it is more clear to see the association between the command and
the event in the code this way.
Rename settings and allow more flexible configuration by allowing the user to
enable click handlers for the tags and the layout label separately.
Add a scroll handler for the layout label so the user can scroll through the
available layouts. Enabling layout-scroll-wrap allows wrapping back to the
beginning/end of the array of available layouts.
next_layout and prev_layout take the address of a layout and returns the
next/previous layout in the m_layouts array if possible, wrapping if specified,
otherwise returns the same layout. This is used to for the layout scroll
handlers to cycle through layouts.
secondary-layout-symbol is the symbol of the layout to switch to when the layout
symbol is left-clicked. This symbol is used to look up the memory address of the
layout to set. The default is the monocle layout.
setlayoutsafe is the dwm command name for setting layouts. The argument is the
layout memory address. Left-clicking switches to the layout represented by
secondary-layout-symbol, and right-clicking switches to the previous layout
(specified by an argument of 0).
To keep track of the different layouts, the layouts are retrieved in the
constructor if the layout label is included and stored in m_layouts.
m_current_layout is updated with the address of the current layout.
m_default_layout is updated in the constructor to the first layout in the array
which is the default layout in dwm. m_secondary_layout is updated to the address
of the layout identified by secondary-layout-symbol.
The builder adds click handlers (if layout label is included) to the layout
symbol as described above. Left-clicking toggles between the secondary layout
and the default layout. Right-clicking toggles between the previous layout and
the current layout.
find_layout are a pair of functions for finding a layout by address or symbol
from the m_layouts array.
