This commit ensures that a response socket is opened before sending a
query request from komorebic to komorebi. Additionally, I have taken
this opportunity to ensure that all socket files are created in
DATA_DIR.
fix#218
This commit adds a TCP listener that can be optionally exposed on a port
provided by the user using the --tcp-port flag. If the flag is not
provided, the TCP listener will not be started.
Client state is tracked using the connecting address, and clients are
purged if they send unrecognised messages.
A JSON Schema of the SocketMessage enum can be exported via komorebic
and be used to generate type definitions in various programming
languages.
This commit also makes some improvements to the handling of 'komorebic
start'.
The previous backoff approach was not working as once the Windows API
denies access to the process for any call, no amount of retries with the
same process id will result in approval.
Therefore, 'komorebic start' now checks if the process has been started,
and if it hasn't (ie. it has errored out because of an access denied
error), it will continue to restart the process until all the komorebi
startup calls to the Windows API succeed.

This commit moves the border window drawing logic into the WNDPROC
callback and uses BeginPaint -> Rectangle -> Endpaint to draw a
rectangle around the outside of the window in a specific colour that is
not black, which is used as the transparency colour with
SetLayeredWindowAttributes.
All of this results in a non-filled border rect and a much nicer
experience for users who are using transparency or translucent effects
on their windows.
This commit also introduces an optional second active border colour when
the user is focused on a stack of windows. If this is not set, the
default colour for single windows will be used.
Finally, a bunch of small issues relating to the border window staying
drawn on the screen even when there are no active windows on a workspace
have been addressed.
resolve#201
This commit adds an optional active window border with a user-defined
colour. This is achieved by spawning a dedicated "border window" and
constantly placing it behind the focused window, or hiding it whenever
necessary.
Some constraints to note:
- The border will only be applied to windows managed by komorebi
- This means that if you temporarily float a window, it will lose the
active window border
- There are some issues where parts of the border will be broken by
applications like Zoom, even if Zoom is behind the currently focused
window
- You probably want to turn off window shadows globally in Advanced
System Settings -> Performance for the borders to have a consistent
colour all the way around the window
- There is some inevitable jank due to trying to reposition both the
focused window and the "border window" behind it simultaneously
- There are no borders for unfocused windows
resolve#182
This commit introduces a new flag to komorebi and komorebic,
--await-configuration, which when enabled, will stop the process from
processing window manager events and updating the layout until the
'komorebic complete-configuration' command has been sent.
This should typically be added at the end of a user's komorebi.ahk
configuration file if they decide to enable this feature.
resolve#190
This commit improves Windows path resolution so that when people run the
ahk-asc command with "applications.yaml" as an argument, without having
".\" prepended, the command will still succeed as expected.
fix#192
This commit ensures that the final argument of the
'workspace-layout-rule' command, which takes a variant of the
DefaultLayout enum, is properly labelled with the #[arg_enum] tag so
that serialization and deserialization works as expected with other
commands that take a DefaultLayout enum variant as an arg.
fix#171
This commit provides two new commands, to set and toggle the behaviour
(swap, insert) when moving window containers across monitor boundaries.
MoveBehaviour::Swap has been selected as the default as this seems to be
the default on bspwm.
resolve#145
This commit allows the Window.focus() fn to continue execution if
AttachThreadInput fails, as there are valid situations in which this
might fail, but the focusing of the window may/should still succeed.
fix#156
This commit adds a new command, 'unmanaged-window-operation-behaviour'
which allows the user to configure their desired behaviour in situations
when sending window container commands which operate on the focused
window container in the workspace state, but having an unmanaged window
as the foreground hwnd.
The default previously was previously Op (and this remains the default
with these new changes), but the user can now select NoOp, which will
return an error when the focused hwnd is unmanaged and not allow any
write operations to take place on the focused workspace state.
resolve#133
Previously, generated AHK did not surround with quotes inputs which
could contain spaces such as application titles. This commit ensures
that in any generated AHK code where an application id is passed to a
komorebic.exe command as input, that input will always be quoted.
This fixes bugs related to float rules, manage rules and other
application identification commands not being properly executed via
komorebic called from the generated AHK files when the app id contained
a space.
This commit adds a second optional argument to the ahk-asc command which
can take an override yaml file. This file can include either entirely
new entries that are not suitable for the asc definitions in the
community repo, or overrides for entries that exist in the community asc
definitions files which will take precedence in the generated ahk file.
This can be useful for example, when the default behaviour for an app is
to minimise to system tray, but that option has been disabled on a
user's computer, making the 'tray_and_multi_window' option no longer
appropriate for their komorebi configuration.
In the case of wanting to override an existing entry, only the "name"
key needs to match; upon a match the entry from the community asc
definitions will be entirely replaced with the entry from the override
definitions.
re #62
This commit adds a fmt command which allows users to prepare PRs to the
configuration repository in a unified way.
The 'custom' formatter basically just ensures that the yaml array is
sorted by application name to make for easier diffs.
Serializing of Option::None has been disabled to keep the yaml file more
concise.
Finally, an option for adding comments to float rules has been included
as some of these rules can be quite esoteric and there is value in
having them annotated with comments in the configuration to preserve and
pass down the knowledge.
The config generation command has been renamed to
'ahk-app-specific-configuration' (with a short alias of 'ahk-asc') to
emphasise that an ahk file is being generated (similar to
'ahk-library').
re #62
This commit introduces a configuration generator for
application-specific config options passed to the cli via a file path.
The hope is to have a public repository that any user can contribute
application-specific configs and fixes to, and for the generated AHK to
be available to any new user as part of the initial setup to make the
onboarding as frictionless as possible.
re #62
Users on Discord noted that Microsoft Office applications were not being
handled correctly by the wm. After some investigation it was clear that
this was because the application windows had WS_EX_LAYERED set.
This had only been seen once before with Steam, and so a whitelist for
layered applications was previously added to the codebase with steam.exe
hard-coded, but this had not been exposed via the cli.
This commit adds a command to allow users to specify layered
applications which should be managed, and also renames the whitelist to
reflect that classes can also be used to identify applications on the
whitelist.
A section has been added to the README to guide Microsoft Office users
to guide Microsoft Office users in configuring komorebi to correctly
handle Office applications with Word given as an example.
This commit also renames the identify-border-overflow command to
identify-border-overflow-application for consistency, while retaining
the previous command as an alias to maintain compatibility with existing
user configurations.
It should be noted however, that those like me who are using the
generated komorebic AHK library, will have to update any AHK function
calls to use IdentifyBorderOverflowApplication().
resolve#124
This commit adds a new feature which allows the user to specify a set of
rules for a specific workspace that will be used to calculate which
layout to apply to that workspace at any given time.
The rule consists of a usize, which identifies the threshold of window
containers which need to be visible on the workspace to activate the
rule, and a layout, which will be applied to the workspace when the rule
is activated.
Both default and custom layouts can be used in workspace layout rules.
When a workspace has layout rules in effect, manually changing the
layout will not work again until the rules for that workspace have been
cleared.
This feature came about after trying but failing to modify the custom
layout code in such a way that the width percentage of a primary column
in a custom layout might be propagated to the fallback columnar layout
when the tertiary column threshold is not met.
Although this new feature introduces more complexity, it is strictly
opt-in and can be completely ignored if the user has no interest in
adjusting layouts based on the visible window count.
re #121
A user on the Discord noted that PyCharm windows were not being managed
as expected when initially launched. After some digging this seems to be
the same issue that was addressed for IntelliJ and Firefox early on in
development, where these applications send EVENT_OBJECT_NAMECHANGE on
launch instead of the regular event when drawing a new window.
The OBJECT_NAME_CHANGE_ON_LAUNCH vec was not previously exposed via
komorebic to allow users to identify other applications that exhibit the
same behaviour. This commit adds a command to allow users to specify
further applications in their configuration files.
This commit introduces the 'notification-schema' command to generate a
JSON schema of the Notification struct which gets sent when notifying
subscribers of updates.
This commit introduces a change to allow users to set a custom
configuration directory for Komorebi to address concerns about $HOME
getting cluttered.
The custom directory can be set with the environment variable
$Env:KOMOREBI_CONFIG_HOME (this should probably be done in $PROFILE).
If this variable is not set, komorebi will default to using
the $HOME directory.
resolve#61
This commit adds a new komorebic command to move the entire focused
workspace and all managed windows and containers to a target monitor
index. Windows that have been excluded from management using various
rules will not be moved as they are not tracked in the window manager
state.
resolve#88
This commit adds a new command which allows the focusing of workspaces
on monitors other than the currently focused monitor by specifying a
monitor index.
Sending this command to komorebi will make the target monitor index the
currently focused monitor.
resolve#85
This commit adds a command to let the user decide if they want windows
to be hidden with SW_HIDE or minimized with SW_MINIMIZE when workspaces
are changed or window container stacks are cycled.
After a modest amount of local testing, SW_MINIMIZE does not appear to
introduce any regressions, and given that alt-tabbing is a common
workflow on Windows, it makes sense to have minimizing be the default
setting to ease the onboarding experience for new users.
resolve#72
This commit ensures that when a window is dragged over another window container while
WindowContainerBehaviour::Append is set, the window will be removed from its current
container and appended to the target container instead of swapping the positions of the two
containers, as would be the case for WindowContainerBehaviour::Create.
re #72
This commit introduces a new command, toggle-new-window-behaviour, which
can be used to toggle how new windows on the screen will be handled.
The default setting is to add a new window in a dedicated container, but
when toggled, new windows will be stacked on top of the currently
focused window container.
This can be useful if you only want to use a certain number of columns,
and when you have enough windows on the screen for them, you can toggle
the new window behaviour to start appending to the existing column
stacks.
This commit also fixes a bug where stacked windows being closed did
cause the next window underneath in the stack to be shown.
re #72
This commit allows the resize-axis cmd on Axis::Horizontal to operate on
the Primary column of a CustomLayout.
Note that this will only operate on a CustomLayout that has met the
window count threshold to enable the tertiary column. If it has not, the
layout will render as DefaultLayout::Columns, which does not support the
resize-axis cmd.
This commit adds a command to set the resize delta used under the hood
by the resize-edge and resize-axis commands. The resize delta defaults
to 50 pixels as was hard-coded previously.
This commit updates a number of komorebic subcommand names while
maintaining their old names as aliases in order to preserve backwards
compatibility.
Resize becomes ResizeEdge, to complement ResizeAxis, and all of the
commands for saving and loading BSP resize adjustments (QuickSave,
QuickLoad, Save, Load) are now post-fixed with "Resize" in order to make
it clear that these commands are not related to custom layout saving and
loading.
This commit adds a new command to resize by axis. Resizing is still
limited to the BSP layout. This command is intended to be bound to mouse
wheel up and down events, with different modified keys determining the
axis to operate on.
This commit bumps the version of the windows-rs and deprecates the
bindings crate in favour of using the pre-packaged APIs that are
available as of 0.22.
This commit renames add-subscriber and remove-subscriber to subscribe
and unsubscribe for more semantic consistency in command names, as well
as improving and fixing the cli documentation for these commands.
@denBot's example of how to create named pipes and subscribe to events
has also been added to the readme.
This commit adds two new commands to add and remove subscribers to
WindowManagerEvent and SocketMessage notifications after they have been
handled by komorebi.
Interprocess communication is achieved using Named Pipes; the
subscribing process must first create the Named Pipe, and then run the
'add-subscriber' command, specifying the pipe name as the argument
(without the pipe filesystem path prepended).
Whenever a pipe is closing or has been closed, komorebi will flag this
as a stale subscription and remove it automatically.
resolve#54
This commit adds some documentation around custom layouts as well as a
YAML example.
The load-layout command has been renamed to load-custom-layout for
consistency.
resolve#50
This commit adds support for loading custom layouts from yaml files, and
also moves the custom layout loading and validating logic into the
komorebi-core crate.
re #50
This commit introduces a number of refactors to layouts in general in
order to enable navigation across custom layouts and integrate both
default and custom layouts cleanly into komorebi and komorebic.
Layout has been renamed to DefaultLayout, and Layout is now an enum with
the variants Default and Custom, both of which implement the new traits
Arrangement (for layout calculation) and Direction (for operation
destination calculation).
CustomLayout has been simplified to wrap Vec<Column> and no longer
requires the primary column index to be explicitly defined as this can
be looked up at runtime for any valid CustomLayout.
Given the focus on ultrawide layouts for this feature, I have disabled
(and have not yet written the logic for) vertical column splits in
custom layouts.
Since CustomLayouts will be loaded from a file path, a bunch of
clap-related code generation stuff has been removed from the related
enums and structs.
Layout flipping has not yet been worked on for custom layouts.
When switching between Default and Custom layout variants, the primary
column index and the 0 element are swapped to ensure that the same
window container is always at the focal point of every layout.
Resizing/dragging to resize is in a bit of weird spot at the moment
because the logic is only implemented for DefaultLayout::BSP right now
and nothing else. I think eventually this will need to be extracted to a
Resize trait and implemented on everything.
This commit applies 'cargo fix --edition' to safely migrate the project
to Edition 2021 of Rust.
A rustfmt.toml has also be added to enforce the flattening of use
statements when running 'cargo fmt'.
This commit adds a new komorebic command to specify offsets for work
areas to be applied across all monitors. The areas covered by these
offsets will be excluded from the tiling area, and can be used for
custom task bars, Rainmeter desktop widgets etc.
When setting an offset at the top, the same offset will need to be
applied to the bottom to ensure that the tiling area is not pushed off
of the screen, but this is not necessary when applying an offset to the
bottom as the top of the work area will never go lower than 0.
