## Building
|
|
|
|
Install dependencies:
|
|
|
|
* wayland
|
|
* wayland-protocols
|
|
* EGL
|
|
* GLESv2
|
|
* DRM
|
|
* GBM
|
|
* libinput
|
|
* udev
|
|
* pixman
|
|
* systemd (optional, for logind support)
|
|
* elogind (optional, for logind support on systems without systemd)
|
|
* libcap (optional, for capability support)
|
|
* asciidoc (optional, for man pages)
|
|
|
|
Run these commands:
|
|
|
|
meson build
|
|
ninja -C build
|
|
|
|
(On FreeBSD, you need to pass an extra flag to prevent a linking error: `meson build -D b_lundef=false`)
|
|
|
|
## Running the Reference Compositor
|
|
|
|
wlroots comes with a reference compositor called rootston that demonstrates the
|
|
features of the library.
|
|
|
|
After building, run rootston from a terminal or VT with:
|
|
|
|
./build/rootston/rootston
|
|
|
|
Now you can run windows in the compositor from the command line or by
|
|
configuring bindings in your
|
|
[`rootston.ini`](https://github.com/swaywm/wlroots/blob/master/rootston/rootston.ini.example)
|
|
file.
