Interested in Sway Service?

[ldelossa]

I'm playing with AGS now.

Would you be open to a Sway service similar to the Hyprland one as a contribution from me?

See any issues with attempting this?

Of course. I know @kotontrion has started working on it, but I don't know if there are plans to finish it.

I halted the development of this, as there was basically no interest for it. But it could be picked up again. I'm not quite sure where I left off, but I think I got the IPC working, so you could use my branch as your base. If you any need help with this, let me know.

Great @kotontrion id love to use your base work here.

I need to implement the Workspaces component from Aylur's dotfiles soon, (got just about everything else working).

When i start this I'll fork ags and use your base to implement a Sway service.

Thanks all.

Hey @Aylur @kotontrion

I'm trying to dev ags in a container.
I have things building, however when I go to run ags it fails to load any widgets in the mounted in ~/.config/ags directory.

I know its not the config, since the config works on my host system with ags installed from copr. Any ideas why this may occur? ags basically isn't loading the config files, or at the minimum not loading my widows.

Any progress on this?

I was able to cherry-pick @kotontrion's work onto main and hack things to a working state: ozwaldorf@f5f0d90

if so, why not open a PR to merge your changes?

There's an open PR already, I just haven't had much time to get back to cleaning up the last couple outstanding bugs
