i3wsr

[3.0.0] - 2024-02-19

BREAKING: Config syntax changes, see readme for new syntax but in short
wm_property is no longer, and have been replaced by scoped aliases that are
checked in this order:

[aliases.name] # 1
".*mutt$" = "Mutt"

[aliases.instance] # 2
"open.spotify.com" = "Spotify"

[aliases.class] # 3
"^firefoxdeveloperedition$" = "Firefox-dev"

If there are no alias defined, i3wsr will default class, but this can be
configured with

--display-property=[class|instance|name]`

or config file:

[general]
display_property = "instance" # class, instance, name

Fixed

Added

• Thanks to the contributions of @MikeWalrus you can now keep your config in $XDG_HOME/.config/i3wsr/config.toml, and use the option -c or --config to specify another path.

Fixed

• Fix issue where from_utf8 would error when presented with a latin-1 encoded string

Changed

• BREAKING: The aliases config map now supports regex in the key portion. This will mostly work with old configs but the match is now substring. To get old exact match use: "^firefox$"
• BREAKING: Rename option no_names to no_icon_names. no_names now always removes name, but leaving icon
• BREAKING: Removed option use_instance, replaced instead by wm_property in config under the [general] heading that takes one of three possible values: class, instance, and name. Also included is a cmd flag: i3wsr --wm-instance=class

Added

• Icons can now match on alias names, and fall back to class

Refer to the readme for details on these new options

Fixed

• Hide names when using no_names and default_icon is configured (#17)

Added

• flag --remove-duplicates that filters out duplicate entries in a workspace
• flag --use-instance, have WM_INSTANCE take precedence over WM_CLASS, thanks to user luukvbaal.
• Enable flags to be set in config file

Fixed

• Fix clap deprecation warning

Add option to have a default icon in the config file:

[general]
default_icon = ""

[general]
separator = ">"
