# Swaysome
An awesome way to manage your workspaces on [sway](https://swaywm.org/).
## Description
This binary helps you configure sway to work a bit more like [AwesomeWM](https://awesomewm.org/). This currently means
workspaces that are name-spaced on a per-screen basis.
example: with workspace `11` on the first screen, and workspace `21` on the second screen, typing the `swaysome`
shortcut to get workspace `1` would lead you to workspace `11` if your focus is on the first screen, and workspace `21`
This binary helps you configure sway to work a bit more like [AwesomeWM](https://awesomewm.org/). This means that
**workspaces** are namespaced in what are called **workspace groups**, and **workspace groups** can be moved around the
differents outputs easily.
For example, with workspace `11` on the first output, and workspace `21` on the second output, triggering the `swaysome focus 1`
shortcut to get workspace `1` would lead you to workspace `11` if your focus is on the first output, and workspace `21`
is the focus is on the second one.
`swaysome` also supports what we call "workspace groups". These are groups of workspaces sharing the same tens number
and tied to an output.
By default, `swaysome init` will create a workspace group per active output, but you may create other groups while working.
By default, `swaysome init` will create a **workspace group** per active output, but you may create other groups while
working, by either triggering `swaysome focus-group <new-number>` and opening a new window, or sending an existing
window to it first with `swaysome move-to-group <new-number>`.
Here is a common use-case for this:
* `output-1`:
* workspace group 1:
* **workspace group** 1:
* workspace `11`: chats
* workspace `12`: emails
* `output-2`:
* workspace group 2:
* **workspace group** 2:
* workspace `21`: IDE for first project
* workspace `22`: browser for first project
* workspace `23`: terminals for first project
* workspace group 3:
* **workspace group** 3:
* workspace `31`: IDE for second project
* workspace `32`: browser for second project
* workspace `33`: terminals for second project
That way, when `output-2` is focused on workspace group 2, be it workspace `21` or `22`, the quick `$mod+<number>`
shortcut won't leave workspace group 2, allowing you to open multiple projects in parallel without the hassle of
manually remembering how to namespace them.
That way, when `output-2` is focused on **workspace group** 2, be it workspace `21` or `22`, the quick `$mod+<number>`
(bound to `swaysome focus <number>`) shortcut won't leave **workspace group** 2, allowing you to open multiple projects
in parallel without the hassle of manually remembering how to namespace them.
In that situation, suppose you plug in a new output, `output-3`, you may then want to focus **workspace group 3**
to send it to `output-3`: this is simply done by typing the shortcuts `$mod+Alt+3` (`swaysome focus-group 3`) then
`$mod+Alt+o` (`swaysome workspace-group-next-output`).
`swaysome` may also work with i3, but this is untested.
`swaysome` should be compatible with [sworkstyle](https://lib.rs/crates/sworkstyle).

Then create the file (and the directory if needed) `~/.config/sway/config.d/swaysome.conf` and paste this inside:
> Use (un)bindcode or (un)bindsym, depending on what you used in your main sway config file.
> The `--no-warn` setting is only added to shortcuts that exist in the default config. You may want to add or remove
> that flag on some bindings depending on your config.
