Weird. Can you run notify-send test
from the terminal?
Wow you're fast at responding! TY! I get this error when running that.
GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown: The name is not activatable
Welcome XD
Yeah, there is something wrong on your system. I found this with a quick search, not sure if it will fix your problem.
You seem to be missing a notification server.
In order to use libnotify, you have to install a notification server.
https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Desktop_notifications#Notification_servers
Even tho swayrst
crashes, your workspace should be saved, since the notification is sent after saving.
https://github.com/Nama/swayrst/blob/main/swayrst/swayrst.py#L152
Try to load it.
I ran load and it gave me the same notification error. My layout didn't load either.
I should also note that I'm on Arch and have gnome-keyring
installed.
swayrst load 'main-work'

Do you have any of the notification servers? I use Dunst e.g.
Don't you want any notifications to work on your machine?
Haha I do for sure! Sorry I'm very new to sway and window managers in general. My installation is still very bare bones. Notification server must be missing.
I'll look into that and retest! Thanks again
Installed Dunst. Thanks for that. The notifications say that saving and loaded worked but loading doesn't do anything. Not seeing any errors in journalctl either.
I should see my windows come back in the layout they were in when I saved correct?
Do you have multiple windows of one process? Did you change more than single windows to test?
Just pushed a commit which implements -v
for debug messages (I thought I did that long time ago >_<).
Could you please update and run swayrst -v load main-work
Also please look into your sway folder ~/.config/sway/
if the files from swayrst
are there.
I got your update, but now am getting this arg error?
❯ swayrst load main-work
usage: swayrst [-h] [-v]
swayrst: error: unrecognized arguments: load main-work
❯ swayrst -v load main-work
usage: swayrst [-h] [-v]
swayrst: error: unrecognized arguments: load main-work
I do have multiple instances of my terminal and browser in my layout.
I should see my windows come back in the layout they were in when I saved correct?
Should have notice your wording here. Layouts aren't restored. But thats the next thing I'd like to have, just not sure how to implement it.
swayrst moves windows to workspaces and workspaces to displays they were in.
I do have multiple instances of my terminal and browser in my layout.
The implementation for multiple windows of a process is not working perfectly. https://github.com/Nama/swayrst/issues/3#issuecomment-1280110354
Oh that makes sense. Sorry for wasting your time!
Steps
swayrst save 'main-work'
orswayrst save main-work
