Screen shader parser: Screen shader parse failed

[vitezprchal]

When using the main branch of Hyprshade, shaders fail to parse correctly.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Check out the main branch of the Hyprland repository.
2. Attempt to run Hyprland with custom shaders (blue filters).

[loqusion]

Please provide your configuration file (hyprshade.toml), the command(s) you ran (e.g. hyprshade on blue-light-filter), and the command output.

[loqusion]

Actually, did you set decoration:screen_shader to the path to blue-light-filter.glsl.mustache manually?

[vitezprchal]

I managed to fix it by copying https://github.com/loqusion/hyprshade/tree/3.2.1/shaders into my shaders directory instead of using shaders from master branch. I used the default example config that is provided in code.

[loqusion]

The shaders on the main branch are actually Mustache templates, so they will only work when rendered into GLSL. Hyprshade on the main branch does this with hyprshade on, hyprshade toggle, etc. so that shaders are configurable (see the 4.0.0 README for more info).

Did you activate the shader with Hyprshade on the main branch, with Hyprshade pre-4.0.0, or some other way?

[vitezprchal]

At first I copied config from the master branch and activated the shaders using hyprshade on blue-light-filter. It didn't produce any relevant output, only displaying 'parse failed.' Eventually, I managed to fix it using the method I described earlier here.

[loqusion]

Was the hyprshade executable from the main branch or was it a stable version? If main, this could be a bug.

[vitezprchal]

It was a stable version, it was my mistake because of copying shaders from main branch.

[loqusion]

Shaders should not need manual installation, they are included in the wheel and Hyprshade detects them automatically. Did your installation of Hyprshade not include them?

[vitezprchal]

Since I'm using nixos, I didn't declare shaders path in my config. Instead, I manually placed it in my .config directory from github repo.
