Summary

I've been observing a weird behavior when I use the quickstart scripts for Komorebi. I'm not sure what is going wrong. Have you seen this behavior before?

komorebic quickstart
komorebic start --whkd --bar

@LGUG2Z commented on GitHub (Nov 27, 2024):

This title is a little misleading as you have clearly changed the configuration from the quickstart.

The correct output of komorebic check when you have set $Env:KOMOREBI_CONFIG_HOME properly:

❯ komorebic check
KOMOREBI_CONFIG_HOME detected: C:\Users\LGUG2Z\.config\komorebi

Because you have not set KOMOREBI_CONFIG_HOME properly as an env var on your system, you won't be able to look up the reference you have given to applications.json (which contains the ignore rule for komorebi-bar)

  "app_specific_configuration_path": "$Env:KOMOREBI_CONFIG_HOME/applications.json",

Closing as this is a user system configuration issue and not an issue with komorebi or the quickstart. Either use a full path to the applications.json file (this is given whenever you run komorebic fetch-asc to fetch the latest file), or set the environment variable at the system level.

My apologies. I do not know where I changed the quickstart configuration. I had gone to the location of $Env:KOMOREBI_CONFIG_HOME, and ran komorebi quickstart. It generated those files and I ran with them without editing them. Could you point me to where I changed them?

Also, is this not what it was supposed to be?

PS C:\Users\username> echo $Env:KOMOREBI_CONFIG_HOME
C:\Users\username\.config\komorebi

I just deleted everything, created brand new files using komorebic quickstart and ran it again, and this is what I've found.

Is there a log that shows where this issue may be coming from?

I just did a sanity check to see if I did indeed change the files from the komorebic quickstart and I'm finding 0 differences. Where did you see the differences?
