alebastr/sway-extras

Description

Collection of additional packages that improve my experience with sway(1) on Fedora.
All the rpm package specs here are free to use for any purposes, including submitting Fedora package review.

• clipman -- A basic clipboard manager for Wayland, with support for persisting copy buffers after an application exits.
• foot -- Fast, lightweight and minimalistic Wayland terminal emulator.
• greetd -- A minimal and flexible login manager daemon that makes no assumptions about what you want to launch.
  Setup guide: https://man.sr.ht/~kennylevinsen/greetd/
• greetd-gtkgreet -- GTK based greeter for greetd
• greetd-tuigreet -- Graphical console greeter for greetd.
• greetd-wlgreet -- Raw wayland based greeter for greetd
• rofi-wayland -- Fork of rofi with wayland (wlr-layer-shell) support patches
• sway-git -- Sway git snapshots compiled with static wlroots and installable side by side with stable sway from Fedora repositories.
  Includes only /usr/bin/sway-git and /usr/bin/swaybar-git binaries; everything else would be used from the regular sway package.
• sway-services -- Tools, utilities and unit files to handle a systemd-user sway session.
  Provides new session "Sway Service" with support of systemd targets and user services.
• xembed-sni-proxy -- Legacy xembed tray icons support for SNI-only system trays.
  Package with xembedsniproxy binary extracted from plasma-workspace. Does not require installing whole KDE to support legacy app tray icons.

Installation Instructions

1. Install sway from the official Fedora repository:
   dnf install sway
   or
   dnf module install sway
2. dnf copr enable alebastr/sway-extras
3. Install desired packages from this repository.

Special notes for rofi-wayland

Due to the same binary name this package conflicts with regular rofi package.
Recommended installation command if you already have rofi installed is dnf swap rofi rofi-wayland

Forked project does not implement window mode and may fail to start if your existing configuration references it. The solution is to open the configuration file (~/.config/rofi/config or ~/.config/rofi/config.rasi) and remove window from modi option.
