> [!WARNING]
> The overhaul is finished!
> Installation is now via an [install script](https://github.com/caelestia-dots/caelestia/blob/main/install.fish) in the
> [`caelestia` repo](https://github.com/caelestia-dots/caelestia).
>
> Anyone with an existing installation, please reinstall via the install script.
>
> Some breaking changes:
> - Rename the `scripts` repo -> `cli`
> - Rename the `hypr` repo -> `caelestia`
> - Merge all other repos (except this and `cli`) into `caelestia`
> - Installation for the `shell` and `cli` will be done via AUR packages; `caelestia` will have a meta package and an install script (should fix most installation issues)
> - Overhaul the scheme system (should fix a few bugs with that and make it cleaner in general)

## Components
- Widgets: [`Quickshell`](https://quickshell.outfoxxed.me)
- Window manager: [`Hyprland`](https://hyprland.org)
- Dots: [`caelestia`](https://github.com/caelestia-dots)
## Installation
This is not implemented as of now.
## Usage
The shell can be started in two ways: via systemd or manually running `caelestia shell`.
### Via systemd
The install script creates and enables the systemd service `caelestia-shell.service` which should automatically start the
shell on login.
### Via command
If not on a system that uses systemd, you can manually start the shell via `caelestia-shell`.
To autostart it on login, you can use an `exec-once` rule in your Hyprland config:
```
exec-once = caelestia shell
```
### Shortcuts/IPC
All keybinds are accessible via Hyprland [global shortcuts](https://wiki.hyprland.org/Configuring/Binds/#dbus-global-shortcuts).
For a preconfigured setup, install [`caelestia-hypr`](https://github.com/caelestia-dots/hypr) via `caelestia install hypr` or see
[this file](https://github.com/caelestia-dots/hypr/blob/main/hyprland/keybinds.conf#L1-L29) for an example on how to use global
shortcuts.
All IPC commands can be accessed via `caelestia shell ...`. For example
```sh
caelestia shell mpris getActive trackTitle
```
The list of IPC commands can be shown via `caelestia shell help`:
```
> caelestia shell help
target mpris
function stop(): void
function play(): void
function next(): void
function getActive(prop: string): string
function list(): string
function playPause(): void
function pause(): void
function previous(): void
target drawers
function list(): string
function toggle(drawer: string): void
target wallpaper
function list(): string
function get(): string
function set(path: string): void
target notifs
function clear(): void
```
### PFP/Wallpapers
The profile picture for the dashboard is read from the file `~/.face`, so to set it just put your image there.
The wallpapers for the wallpaper switcher are read from `~/Pictures/Wallpapers`, so put your wallpapers there for
them to show up in the switcher (you need to restart the shell after changing stuff in `~/Pictures/Wallpapers` sadly,
no watching for changes yet).
To set the wallpaper, you can use the command `caelestia wallpaper`. Use `caelestia wallpaper -h` for more info about
the command.
## Credits
Thanks to the Hyprland discord community (especially the homies in #rice-discussion) for all the help and suggestions
for improving these dots!
A special thanks to [@outfoxxed](https://github.com/outfoxxed) for making Quickshell and the effort put into fixing issues
and implementing various feature requests.
Another special thanks to [@end_4](https://github.com/end-4) for his [config](https://github.com/end-4/dots-hyprland)
which helped me a lot with learning how to use Quickshell.
Finally another thank you to all the configs I took inspiration from (only one for now):
