Ryan Dwyer f4bc25bcc6 Relocate container_move, container_move_to and container_get_in_direction
* container_move is only called from the move command
* container_move_to was called from both the move command and the sticky
command, but the sticky command can easily not call it
* container_get_in_direction is only called from the focus command

Moving these functions to their respective commands gives better
separation of code and removes bloat from layout.c. These functions will
need to be refactored to take advantage of type safety, so separating
them will make this easier to refactor.

The following static functions have also been moved:

* is_parellel
* invert_movement
* move_offs
* container_limit
* workspace_rejigger
* move_out_of_tabs_stacks
* get_swayc_in_output_direction

They were all used by the move functions, except for the last one which
is used by focus.

Other changes:

* index_child has been renamed to container_sibling_index, moved to
container.c and made public
* sway_output_from_wlr has been renamed to output_from_wlr_output, moved
to output.c and made public
* container_handle_fullscreen_reparent has been made public
* sway_dir_to_wlr has been made public

No changes have been made to any of the moved functions, other than
updating calls to functions that have been renamed.

"SirCmpwn's Wayland compositor" is a work in progress i3-compatible Wayland compositor. Read the FAQ. Join the IRC channel (#sway on irc.freenode.net).

Notice: You are viewing the unstable and unsupported master branch of sway, where work is ongoing to port it to wlroots. The supported branch is the 0.15 branch, and end users are encouraged to use the stable releases cut from it.

If you'd like to support sway development, please contribute to SirCmpwn's Patreon page.

Installation

From Packages

Sway is available in many distributions. Try installing the "sway" package for yours. If it's not available, check out this wiki page for information on installation for your distributions.

If you're interested in packaging sway for your distribution, stop by the IRC channel or shoot an email to sir@cmpwn.com for advice.

Compiling from Source

Install dependencies:

  • meson
  • wlroots
  • wayland
  • xwayland
  • libinput >= 1.6.0
  • libcap
  • pcre
  • json-c >= 0.13
  • pango
  • cairo
  • gdk-pixbuf2 *
  • pam **
  • dbus >= 1.10 ***
  • scdoc (required for man pages)

*Only required for swaybar, swaybg, and swaylock

**Only required for swaylock

***Only required for tray support

Run these commands:

meson build
ninja -C build
sudo ninja -C build install

On systems without logind, you need to suid the sway binary:

sudo chmod a+s /usr/local/bin/sway

Sway will drop root permissions shortly after startup.

Configuration

If you already use i3, then copy your i3 config to ~/.config/sway/config and it'll work out of the box. Otherwise, copy the sample configuration file to ~/.config/sway/config. It is usually located at /etc/sway/config. Run man 5 sway for information on the configuration.

Running

Run sway from a TTY. Some display managers may work but are not supported by sway (gdm is known to work fairly well).
