bwm

Wayland compositor based on bspwm

Building

Ensure you have the following dependencies installed:

  • wlroots-git (latest git)
  • wayland
  • wayland-protocols
  • xkbcommon
  • libinput
  • pixman-1
  • xcb
  • xcb-icccm
  • glesv2
  • egl
  • cairo
  • pangocairo

Build with meson:

meson setup build
ninja -C build

Configuration

You can use the example config under examples. These should be placed under $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/bwm/ (or $HOME/.config/bwm/), or you can pass the directory you have put them in with the -c arg like:

bwm -c ./examples/

The bwmrc is a bash file that is run at startup, and can be used to configure settings and launch applications (like an .xinitrc).

The bwmhkrc is a config file for your hotkeys, and is reloaded on every save. It uses a config format similar to sxhkd and can execute compositor binds by calling the bmsg command.
