wlroots-ocaml - OCaml bindings to wlroots

NOTE: This is an early, very work in progress set of bindings. There are guaranteed to be bugs and rough edges along with lots of missing documentation. These bindings are an occasional nights and weekends project done for fun.

The goal of the library is to provide "thin bindings" that follow the C API as closely as possible (while being type-safe). Only a fraction of the C API is currently covered, but adding new functions and structures to the bindings should be mostly a mechanical process.

Building

To compile wlroots-ocaml, you need the following (assuming you have opam):

• wlroots (the C library), from the git master branch. wlroots-ocaml uses pkg-config to know where the library and headers are.
• OCaml bindings to xkbcommon: opam pin add xkbcommon https://github.com/Armael/ocaml-xkbcommon.git

Then, to directly install wlroots-ocaml with opam, use:

  opam pin add wlroots https://github.com/swaywm/wlroots-ocaml.git

If you want to hack on the library instead, clone the repository, and install its dependencies with:

opam install -t --deps-only .

Then, you can use make to build the library, and make examples to build the example programs.
