Swaysome

This binary helps you configure sway to work a bit more like Awesome. This currently means workspaces that are name-spaced on a per-screen basis.

It may also work with i3, but this is untested.

swaysome should be compatible with sworkstyle.

Installation

Arch Linux: Found on the AUR as swaysome-git.

If you have Rust installed, then you can just cargo install swaysome and you're good to go.

Otherwise, you may grab a pre-built binary from the CI and put it in your $PATH.

WARNING: please double-check that your swaysome binary is in sway's $PATH. Depending on your setup, the $PATH you have in your shell may not be the same as sway's, and if swaysome can't be called by sway, the symptoms will only look like non-functional shortcuts.
If you're in this situation, a quick workaround is to call swaysome with its full absolute path from sway's config to check that everything works before fixing your $PATH issue.

Usage

Then create the file (and the directory if needed) ~/.config/sway/config.d/swaysome.conf and paste this inside:

# Move focused container to next output
bindcode $mod+o exec "swaysome next-output"

# Move focused container to previous output
bindcode $mod+Shift+o exec "swaysome prev-output"

# Init workspaces for every screen
exec "swaysome init 1"

Finally append your sway configuration with this:

include ~/.config/sway/config.d/*.conf

You should end-up with workspaces from 1 to 0, prefixed with a screen index, giving you workspace 11 on the first screen, and workspace 21 on the second one, both accessible with shortcut $mod+1 when focused on the right output.

The init command simply walks through every screen to initialize a prefixed workspace. It does it backwards so that you end-up focused on the first screen, as usual.

Exhaustive swaysome commands list

  • move [name]: move the focused container to [name] on the same group
  • move-to-group [id]: move the focused container to the same relative workspace on the [id] workspace group
  • next-output: move the focused container to the next output
  • prev-output: move the focused container to the previous output
  • focus [name]: change focus to [name] on the same group
  • focus-all-outputs [name]: change all outputs focus to [name]
  • focus-group [id]: change focus to group [id]
  • next-group: change focus to the next workspace group
  • previous-group: change focus to the previous workspace group
  • init [name]: cycle all outputs to create a default workspace with name [name]
  • rearrange-workspaces Rearrange already opened workspaces to the correct outputs, useful when plugging or unplugging screens

Breaking changes

  • Starting with 1.1.6, next_output and prev_output have been changed to next-output and prev-output.
