hey @ LGUG2Z ! i am also a new user to komorebi coming here after failed try with dwm-win32 port.
i have been looking for almost 100 minutes, and still couldn't find how to enable hotkeys.

on looking further with komorebic check (thannks a lot for check subcommand 😃), i found that it says "no config found" which is confusing as i have done the equivalent of all the steps given in the readme.

i have done:

  • downloaded both komorebi & whkd
  • added both those to PATH, and added the KOMOREBI_CONFIG_HOME env variable
  • added all the 3 applications.yaml komorebi.json whkdrc files to that directory configured above
$ komorebic check
KOMOREBI_CONFIG_HOME detected: D:\UserFiles\komorebi_config_home

Looking for configuration files in D:\UserFiles\komorebi_config_home

No komorebi configuration found in D:\UserFiles\komorebi_config_home

If running 'komorebic start --await-configuration', you will manually have to call the following command to begin tiling: komorebic complete-configuration   


$ cd $KOMOREBI_CONFIG_HOME/

$ ls -A
applications.yaml  komorebi.json  whkdrc

i am using msys2, not wsl or anything like that. so, the issue is not related to it.

i.e. equivalent of as mentioned at:

hi! no.

  • i started like: komorebic start as supplying the path options works only for current session, and
  • the problem of komorebic check failing would still prevail, i.e.
  • it would still require passing it every time which is tedious and those options should be took care by the config

whkd has its own config home environment variable. WHKD_CONFIG_HOME

so, i need to set that up and point it to same as KOMOREBI_CONFIG_HOME ?

komorebic start -c "<komorebi.json file path goes here>" --whkd

so,

  • i tried that just now; and
  • it seems that specifying the -c option makes 'komorebi.exe' unable to start.
  • whereas without that, i.e. with no options or even with --whkd, it starts okay.
  • it makes me wonder if there's some issue parsing that json file or if it is even valid
$ komorebic start -c $KOMOREBI_CONFIG_HOME/komorebi.json --whkd
Start-Process 'komorebi.exe' -ArgumentList '--config="D:\UserFiles\komorebi_config_home\komorebi.json"' -WindowStyle hidden
Waiting for komorebi.exe to start...komorebi.exe did not start... Trying again
Start-Process 'komorebi.exe' -ArgumentList '--config="D:\UserFiles\komorebi_config_home\komorebi.json"' -WindowStyle hidden

$ komorebic start --whkd
Start-Process 'komorebi.exe' -WindowStyle hidden
Waiting for komorebi.exe to start...Started!

if (!(Get-Process whkd -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue))
{
  Start-Process whkd -WindowStyle hidden
}

sharing your json file

hi! yeah, i have attached it below.

f9c69e51aa/README.md (L200-L201)
but rerading the above example , i actually think u were right before regaring this:

whkd has its own config home environment variable. WHKD_CONFIG_HOME

in the sense that, maybe (edit: yes) the default place where whkd looks for its config is ~/.config/whkdrc and so above works out.

edit2: even after setting up the WHKD_CONFIG_HOME to %KOMOREBI_CONFIG_HOME% (as the whkdrc is located in same dir) it didn't work; and lack of whkd check didn't help

File: komorebi.json

{
  "$schema": "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/LGUG2Z/komorebi/master/schema.json",
  // "app_specific_configuration_path": "$Env:USERPROFILE/applications.yaml",

  "default_container_padding": 20,
  "active_window_border": false,
  "active_window_border_colours": {
    "single": { "r": 66, "g": 165, "b": 245 },
    "stack": { "r": 256, "g": 165, "b": 66 },

        { "name": "V", "layout": "Rows" }
      ]
    }
  ]
}

it basically came as follows:

can you remove the commented out line in json file and try it again? If i am right json can't include lines commented out. not sure 100%.
just for testing can you hardcode the full path in WHKD_CONFIG_HOME instead of %KOMOREBI_CONFIG_HOME%?

hi! i have got exams. so, wont be able to attach ay things for a month. however sharing my foundings from 2 days ago:

it seems that evon on starting with komorebic start the hotkeys are working... its just that it was placing current active window on left, and i was trying with A-S-h which was not doing anything.

I was doing that as i was used to expecting it to cycle back as it does in dwm-win32 port. i found that this was erronoeus when i started it as komorebi and perssing that showed the error entry on stdout/err...

other than that, i tried changing the configs in whkdrc i.e. alt h to shift focus up.. but i guess even that didn't work... (but to be reconfirmed more firmly)

and ofc i tried removing that commented out line, and it still showed no config found on komorebic check

'komorebic check' command shows me 'no config found' as well but it has picked it up correctly. could be a wrong message.
