# wldash
|
|
|
|
A dashboard/launcher/control-panel thing for Wayland. Requires wlr-layer-shell-unstable-v1.
|
|
|
|
Consider this alpha-quality: While it works, *everything* is subject to change with a moments notice. You may end up pulling in the latest changes, and *poof*, wldash suddenly turns into an artisan espresso machine.
|
|
|
|
## How to use
|
|
|
|
1. Checkout: `git clone https://github.com/kennylevinsen/wldash`
|
|
2. Build: `cargo build --release`
|
|
If you want the Ivy calculator feature enabled (requires a Go toolchain): `cargo build --release --features ivy`
|
|
3. Put somewhere: `cp target/release/wldash /usr/local/bin/wldash`
|
|
4. Run: `wldash`
|
|
|
|
## How to use launcher
|
|
|
|
Assuming https://github.com/kennylevinsen/dot-desktop is installed: `eval "$(dot-desktop "$(dot-desktop | wldash)")"`
|
|
|
|
wldash simply takes a new-line separated list of strings, and returns the selection. dot-desktop generates this list, and afterwards processes the selection to return the proper instantiation string. Eval then executes it.
