Waylaunch is a program launcher for Wayland.

Only compositors that implement the wlr-layer-shell protocol are supported at the moment. Typically wlroots-based compositors.

Waylaunch includes a command history by default.

Requirements

OCaml requirements (installable via opam):

  • ocaml >= 4.11
  • dune >= 2.7
  • dune-configurator >= 2.7
  • bos >= 0.2.0
  • fpath >= 0.7.0
  • rresult >= 0.6.0

C requirements:

  • pkg-config
  • libwayland
  • wayland-protocols
  • cairo
  • pango
  • xkbcommon

You can install all the requirements easily and in a way that is cross-platform using opam:

$ git submodule update --init
$ opam pin add -n .
$ opam depext waylaunch
$ opam install --deps-only waylaunch

Installation

To install it:

$ dune build -p waylaunch
$ sudo $(which dune) install --prefix /usr/local --sections bin

Technologies

This program is written in OCaml and is currently using a fork of bemenu (written in C) underneath. This fork of bemenu has to vocation to disappear little by little in the future as the code will ultimately be rewritten in OCaml.
