Since wayland does not currently allow swaybar to create global
keybinds, this is handled within sway and sent to the bar using a custom
event, so as not to pollute existing events, called bar_state_update.
As well as adding the hidden_state property to the bar config struct,
this commit handles barconfig_update events when the mode or
hidden_state changes, and uses a new function determine_bar_visibility
to hide or show the bar as required, using, respectively,
destroy_layer_surface, which is also newly added, and add_layer_surface,
which has been changed to allow dynamically adding the surface.
This distinguishes the binding mode from the distinct config mode, as
well as removing mode_pango_markup from the config struct where it
should not be present.
This starts up the event loop and wayland display and shims out the
basic top level rendering concepts. Also includes some changes to
incorporate pango into the 1.x codebase properly.
This commit implements the StatusNotifierItem protocol, and enables
swaybar to show tray icons. It also uses `xembedsniproxy` in order to
communicate with xembed applications.
The tray is completely optional, and can be disabled on compile time
with the `enable-tray` option. Or on runtime with the bar config option
`tray_output none`.
Overview of changes:
In swaybar very little is changed outside the tray subfolder except
that all events are now polled in `event_loop.c`, this creates no
functional difference.
Six bar configuration options were added, these are detailed in
sway-bar(5)
The tray subfolder is where all protocol implementation takes place and
is organised as follows:
tray/sni_watcher.c:
This file contains the StatusNotifierWatcher. It keeps track of
items and hosts and reports when they come or go.
tray/tray.c
This file contains the StatusNotifierHost. It keeps track of
sway's version of the items and represents the tray itself.
tray/sni.c
This file contains the StatusNotifierItem struct and all
communication with individual items.
tray/icon.c
This file implements the icon theme protocol. It allows for
finding icons by name, rather than by pixmap.
tray/dbus.c
This file allows for asynchronous DBus communication.
