> [!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)

## 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.
