This is currently unused and I don't like the approach anymore
regardless. If/when we need positional arguments (probably when
implementing the upcoming river-control protocol in rivertile)
they should be handled separately from flags.
This commit also improves the CLI error reporting to always print the
usage string if invalid arguments were passed.
The previous commit re-introduced a bug fixed by a3c65713 which caused
the pointer enter event not to be sent until moving the pointer when
switching tag focus or otherwise manipulating the window manager caused
the cursor to end up over a new surface.
If the current Cursor.maybeResetState() function is called while in
passthrough mode, it will send a pointer motion event. This is
unnecessary as we have already sent the same pointer motion event at
least once.
Also refactor the code slightly and improve naming.
Handling output destroy now requires the wlr_output_layout to still be
around, as we need it to properly handle cursor state. In order to make
sure that all outputs are destroyed before the wlr_output_layout is,
simply destroy the backend before calling Root.deinit().
Now that we properly handle state changes during cursor operations,
blocking these commands if the target view is the target of a cursor
operation is unnecessary complexity. It is also inconsistent as we
don't block changing the tags of the view.
This was slightly out of sync with Cursor.surfaceAt() which did not
fullscreen or xwayland unmanaged views properly. Also simplify things
and improve correctness by always rendering all xdg popups. A view
losing focus does not always mean that all popups will be destroyed.
A transaction may move the current target of a cursor action to a
non-visible tag, make it fullscreen, or otherwise change things such
that the current cursor state no longer makes sense.
To handle this, check if we should reset cursor state every time a
transaction is committed.
Currently the spawn command takes any number of arguments and naively
joins them together with spaces before passing them as the single
argument of `/bin/sh -c`. This however produces unexpected results as
soon as shell quoting gets involved in the arguments passed to spawn.
For example, running
riverctl spawn foo "bar baz"
will execute `/bin/sh -c "foo bar baz"`, unexpectedly splitting bar and
baz into separate arguments. To avoid this confusion, make the spawn
command take only a single argument, forcing the user to quote properly
to spawn multi-argument commands.
- Remove advertise_view and advertise_done events. Using the information
provided by these for any purpose would make the layout far less
predictable. Futhermore, in the months this has been available for use,
to my knowledge nobody has actually used it for anything useful.
- Replace the set/mod layout value events with a single user_command
event. This simplifies the protocol and is more flexible for clients.
- Add a layout_name argument to the commit request. This name is an
arbitrary, user-facing string that might, for example, be displayed by a
status bar. This was present in early drafts of the protocol, but was
removed in favor of river-options. Since river-options itself has since
been removed and this feature is nice to have, re-add it.
- Rename main factor to main ratio in rivertile. The "factor" name was
just legacy from dwm, "ratio" is much more accurate.
This code is complex and increases maintenance burden but doesn't
add any functionality, only eye-candy.
Futhermore, neither I nor any of the core contributors use it.
There may be a place in river for such eye-candy down the line, in which
case this code could be revived. Currently river is early enough in its
development that our focus should be on core functionality instead.
A true "default" config doesn't make sense for river. Everyone who uses
river seriously will customize their init script. Futhermore, the
current behavior of embedding the install path of the default system
config in the river binary is complex and prone to breaking.
On output change, if the cursor is not already on the newly focused
output, it will now be warped to its center. The check is necessary,
since focusing outputs with the pointer will be implemented in
the future.
A client is free to change its mind and request a different
size/anchor/etc after recieving the initial configure but before
attaching and committing the first buffer. This means that we should
respond to such a situation with a new configure.
mako has been observed doing this in the wild for example.
Currently in handleUnmap() we call View.unmap() before removing
listeners. However View.unmap() may destroy the view before returning
if the transaction started doesn't have to wait on any configures.
To ensure that we don't try to remove listeners which have already been
free'd, do this before calling View.unmap().
