# split-monitor-workspaces
|
||
|
|
A small plugin to provide `awesome`/`dwm`-like behavior with workspaces: split them between monitors and provide independent numbering
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
# Installing
|
||
|
|
Since Hyprland plugins don't have ABI guarantees, you *should* download the Hyprland source and compile it if you plan to use plugins.
|
||
|
|
This ensures the compiler version is the same between the Hyprland build you're running, and the plugins you are using.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The guide on compiling and installing Hyprland manually is on the [wiki](http://wiki.hyprland.org/Getting-Started/Installation/#manual-manual-build)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Using [hyprload](https://github.com/Duckonaut/hyprload)
|
||
|
|
1. Export the `HYPRLAND_HEADERS` variable to point to the root directory of the Hyprland repo
|
||
|
|
- `export HYPRLAND_HEADERS="$HOME/repos/Hyprland"`
|
||
|
|
2. Install
|
||
|
|
- `make install`
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Manual installation
|
||
|
|
1. Export the `HYPRLAND_HEADERS` variable to point to the root directory of the Hyprland repo
|
||
|
|
- `export HYPRLAND_HEADERS="$HOME/repos/Hyprland"`
|
||
|
|
2. Compile
|
||
|
|
- `make all`
|
||
|
|
3. Add this line to the bottom of your hyprland config
|
||
|
|
- `exec-once=hyprctl plugin load <ABSOLUTE PATH TO split-monitor-workspaces.so>`
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|

|
|
# Usage
|
||
|
|
The plugin provides drop-in replacements for workspace-related commands
|
||
|
|
| Normal | Replacement |
|
||
|
|
|-----------------------|-------------------------------|
|
||
|
|
| workspace | split-workspace |
|
||
|
|
| movetoworkspace | split-movetoworkspace |
|
||
|
|
| movetoworkspacesilent | split-movetoworkspacesilent |
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
It also provides the following config values
|
||
|
|
| Name | Type | Default | Description |
|
||
|
|
|-------------------------------------------|-----------|-----------|-----------------------------------------------|
|
||
|
|
| `plugin:split-monitor-workspaces:count` | int | 10 | How many workspaces to bind to the monitor |
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Keep in mind that if you're using, for example, the `wlr/workspaces` widgets in [waybar](https://github.com/Alexays/Waybar), this will require a change to your config. You should set `all-outputs` to `false`, and adjust the icon mapping.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If your workspace-per-monitor count is 10, the first monitor will have workspaces 1-10, the second 11-20 and so on. They will be accessed via numbers 1-10 while your mouse is on a given monitor.
