Will this work out of the box? (I meant the colors)
@kRHYME7 yes they do . I just tested looks nice
Unfortunately, compiling and installing swayOSD on low-end devices takes a significant amount of time. And I'm afraid would cause issues. We can add this in the optional package though
That would be great. I personally like the design compared to what we have now. I think we can add it as optional. Once they package it for ubuntu, then we can use it from aur
I converted the binds BTW while testing
# Exec daemon
exec-once = swayosd-server
# Volume controls
#bind=,XF86AudioRaiseVolume,exec,swayosd-client --output-volume raise
#bind=,XF86AudioLowerVolume,exec,swayosd-client --output-volume lower
#bind=,XF86AudioMute,exec,swayosd-client --output-volume mute-toggle
# Source volume toggle mute
#bind=,XF86AudioMicMute,exec,swayosd-client --input-volume mute-toggle
# Custom volume values
#bind=,XF86AudioRaiseVolume,exec,swayosd-client --output-volume 15
#bind=,XF86AudioLowerVolume,exec,swayosd-client --output-volume -15
# Max volume
#bind=,XF86AudioRaiseVolume,exec,swayosd-client --output-volume raise --max-volume 120
#bind=,XF86AudioLowerVolume,exec,swayosd-client --output-volume lower --max-volume 120
# Custom volume values with device
#bind=,XF86AudioRaiseVolume,exec,swayosd-client --output-volume +10
#bind=,XF86AudioLowerVolume,exec,swayosd-client --output-volume -10
# Caps Lock
#bindr=,Lock,exec,swayosd-client --caps-lock
#bindr=,Caps_Lock,exec,swayosd-client --caps-lock
# Brightness controls
#bind=,XF86MonBrightnessUp,exec,swayosd-client --brightness raise
#bind=,XF86MonBrightnessDown,exec,swayosd-client --brightness lower
# Custom brightness values
#bind=,XF86MonBrightnessUp,exec,swayosd-client --brightness +10
#bind=,XF86MonBrightnessDown,exec,swayosd-client --brightness -10
I did too. Few buttons like mute and volumes just to see the UI
Did you happen to make caps_lock work?
@kRHYME7 works fine
Did you happen to make caps_lock work?
Works out of the box for me
same
@kRHYME7 I think for now we can package a build and ship with hyprdots . Generating a binary looks fairly easy, just have to copy to /usr/bin
Does their repo have the bin files? I guess we ask for feat req there and someone can make an aur pkg.
Nah. They dont. We will have to build one ourself . Then we can host pkgbuild on aur to copy that to user bins or we can put the binary here itself for now
What's the reason for not shipping bin? Should it be compiled specifically for the system?
yeah. They dont have done any release as far I can see. You build with cargo lol
Maybe we should try to request then. Maybe they can provide any reasons why they're not shipping a bin.
I'm using chaotic aur, still no one packages it to bin.
https://github.com/chaotic-aur/packages/issues?q=sort%3Aupdated-desc+is%3Aissue+is%3Aopen lets create one here for swayosd-git. We will need users upvoting for quick i guess
@kRHYME7 @TurtleMeds created a request here, be sure to comment there so the devs can release a bin sooner https://github.com/chaotic-aur/packages/issues/3303
Then we can get going with this feature
The package has been added. For as long as we provide it build logs will be available at https://builds.garudalinux.org/repos/chaotic-aur/logs/swayosd-git.log Eventually after transition to v4, logs will be available here https://aur.chaotic.cx/status
Feature Request
Description
Use the
swayosd-git
package from the aur to make changing volume and brightness much more intuitive and feel less hacky.Use Case
It would look much better and more polished.
Alternatives
it is also possible to make your own with something like eww or ags.
