hello, river is rrunning inside foot can I run riverctl? I got error connectFailed.
<ifreund>
ccha: riverctl requires WAYLAND_DISPLAY to be set in order to communicate with river. This is set by river for all programs it starts
<plumeus>
did you run riverctl inside the nested instance? What you're trying to do should be possible though
<ccha>
from tty, I type river, inside river Super+Shift Return, inside fooot then I want to test some rivectl command before to put inside init. avoid change to edit init, start river, stop river again and again
<plumeus>
I don't get what "avoid change to edit" means and why you would need to restart river to test a new config.
<ccha>
how I can apply new changes in init without restarting river?
<ccha>
I don't need to restart river?
<plumeus>
Well, I personally just use `riverctl` to set or unset any config I change, see if it works like intended, and add that command to the init files (assuming you use a shell script)
<plumeus>
No need to restart unless you want to be very sure that you didn't write the config correctly.
<plumeus>
You could also just run the init file within River instead of restarting
<plumeus>
Which won't unset certain stuff, obviously
<plumeus>
And it might run certain programs you only want to run at startup, but I try to separate those to a different script and only call it if it isn't already running.
<plumeus>
I guess you'll probably have to restart river if you wanted to set a new env var inside it.
<ccha>
oh I need WAYLAND_DISPLAY=wayland-1
<dagle>
Trying to write a gobject for rivertile and I think I understand it now.

If you re-export handle_command is there a reason to split up user_command and user_command_tags? Because that is for historic reasons?

<novakane>
user_command_tags and user_comment are two different events in the protocol, so you need to handle both
<novakane>
user_command_tags doesn't do anything in rivertile though
<novakane>
then I don't know anything about gobject so I could misunderstand your end goal
<dagle>
novakane: I know what they are, the question if when I re-export them, is there a reason not make them into one signal.
<dagle>
novakane: gobject is an object system for C. With it you can generate bindings for other languages. So you get free python, lua, C#, java bindings etc.
<novakane>
hmm why do you make bindings for rivertile instead of the river-layout protocol?

<dagle>
Oh, I meant for the river-layout protocol.

I used the rivertile in a broader term.
<novakane>
oh okay, then yeah you need both because river gonna send both events, and they don't do exactly the same things, it's better to have both and then ignore the one you don't want client side
<tiosgz>
they don't do anything similar at all, for the record (one gives the user command, the other gives the focused tags at the time of sending the command)
<tiosgz>
apparently there's a copy-paste error in the description summary though
<tiosgz>
:)
<novakane>
ah yeah, I never used this event
<novakane>
oh right it sends a uint I missed that
<dagle>
So if you load it into lua, this is the difference in the exported interface. https://paste.rs/LuA
<dagle>
It's pretty much the same for python

the two user_command are not send at the same time though
<novakane>
you'll probably end with some weird things in the second case

I can't see how.
<dagle>
It handles a user_command_tag, set a variable, when a user_command happens it handles it and sends a signal with the command and the tag saved.
snakedye has quit [Ping timeout: 268 seconds]
<dagle>
user_command and user_command_tag isn't wayland events. They are signals that just share names.

dagle: they are different events, however user_command_tag is strictly an extention to user_command. it will always be sent before user_command. adding a new events is a backwards compatible way of adding new args to old events
<leon-p>
if you wanted, you could warp them up into a single gobject event thing or however that works
<chipps>
I want to use a statusbar which would be hidden from the view for the most part, but I want to pull it up with a keypress. What statusbars do you people use?
snakedye has quit [Ping timeout: 260 seconds]
<leon-p>
none. I habe a popup for tags and a watch on my wrist
<tiosgz>
i know waybar can do that with SIGUSR1, but i'm not sure if you can set it to hide on startup

chipps, i use i3bar-river with xmobar's text mode (until i find the time to finish a port of xmobar to wayland, which is poorly supported in the haskell world). but i don't know of a way of hiding i3bar-river.
