I checked /usr/share/nwg-drawer and I do have all the necessary files in the desktop-directories directory. On both machines, I use default settings without any modification.
That's where we take category names from. We would need a special program version to debug this issue, and you'd have to build it locally, run, and show me the output. Would you like me to prepare it?
I also noticed that on thinkcentre, nwg-drawer automatically copies drawer.css to my local config folder, even after I try to delete it. This was not the case on my thinkpad.
It's expected behavior. It should always be like this. You can edit the file, but if you delete it, it'll be re-created.

Yes, please. I can try to build locally.
OK. Now you need to:
pkill -f nwg-drawer
check69
branch: git clone https://github.com/nwg-piotr/nwg-drawer.git -b check69
cd nwg-drawer
go run . -d
(it may take quite a lot of time at the first try)here it is... it seems like (1) even though it says it was copying the css file to local folder, it did not (2) it was looking for dir files in local folder as well.

At 1: It works on my side. At 2: When installed as the AUR package, it should be on its place. See PKGBUILD.
PKGBUILD showed it only copies to /usr/share/nwg-drawer/
, am I correct? It doesnt copy all the dir files to .local/share/nwg-drawer
. Once I copy all the directory files to ~/.local/share/nwg-drawer
, all the dirs show up correctly.
package() {
cd "$srcdir"
install -d "$pkgdir"/usr/share/"$pkgname"/desktop-directories
install -Dm644 -t "$pkgdir"/usr/share/"$pkgname"/desktop-directories/ "$pkgname"-"$pkgver"/desktop-directories/*
install -Dm644 -t "$pkgdir"/usr/share/"$pkgname" "$pkgname"-"$pkgver"/drawer.css
install -Dm755 -t "$pkgdir"/usr/bin "$pkgname"-"$pkgver"/bin/"$pkgname"
}
We don't use .local/share/nwg-drawer
.
func setUpCategories() {
p := filepath.Join(getDataHome(), "nwg-drawer/desktop-directories")
and getDataHome()
is as below:
func getDataHome() string {
if os.Getenv("XDG_DATA_HOME") != "" {
return os.Getenv("XDG_DATA_HOME")
}
return "/usr/share/"
}
Anything wrong with your XDG_DATA_HOME
environment variable?
[edit] Hmmm, it seems it should point to $HOME/.local/share
...
it's set to $HOME/.local/share
in fish. It seems like your code is pointing to local.
set -gx XDG_DATA_HOME $HOME/.local/share
It seems the code is wrong, and it shows up if you set the XDG_DATA_HOME
variable.
[edit] Hmmm, it seems it should point to $HOME/.local/share...
Yeah... since I have it set, it's looking for XDG_DATA_HOME
rather than XDG_DATA_DIRS
Alright, I'll give up on the env variable, and use the usr/share/
path. What do you think?

I cant make the decision as I have next to zero development experience. I'm just glad to find a bug!
I need a coffee to make a decision. One way or another, thanks for pointing out the bug.
It should be alright now, or at least I hope so. Can't release yet, as I fixed some deprecation errors, that appeared in Go 1.19. It needs a couple of days of testing.
First thank you for making so many great tools. I am using SwayWM on Arch and nwg-drawer is exactly what I am looking for.
I have installed nwg-drawer on two of my machines, both have same set up (Arch+Sway). However, on my laptop (thinkpad), nwg-drawer does not have any categories, other than "All". On the other machine (thinkcentre), all categories (including icons) showed up correctly.
I checked
/usr/share/nwg-drawer
and I do have all the necessary files in thedesktop-directories
directory. On both machines, I use default settings without any modification.I also noticed that on thinkcentre, nwg-drawer automatically copies
drawer.css
to my local config folder, even after I try to delete it. This was not the case on my thinkpad.All packages are latest., installed from official repo.
The only difference I can think of is that Thinkcentre used to have Gnome installed, and then I uninstalled it to switch to Sway. On Thinkpad, I started fresh with Sway. I wonder if there is any on Gnome that made nwg-drawer categories working properly?
Thank you!
