Hyprland 是一个独立的且使用C++编写的平铺式 Wayland合成器。 Hyprland 值得注意的功能包括动态平铺、选项卡窗口、整洁可读的C++代码库,和提供窗口动画的自定义渲染器,窗口圆角,以及透明窗口上的Dual Kawase Blur。一般用法和配置在 Hyprland Wiki 中有详细文档介绍

安装

如果你使用包管理器,安装以下的其中一个

如果要使用CMake编译安装

首先将Git仓库克隆到本地

git clone --recursive https://github.com/hyprwm/Hyprland

其次切换到Git仓库目录

cd Hyprland

最后编译安装

make all && sudo make install

#6608起,Hyprland 使用aquamarine作为自己的渲染后端库。在此之前,它捆绑了它自己的wlroots版本,与wlroots-gitAUR接近

注意:
  • NVIDIA GPU用户也应该在尝试启动Hyprland之前确保遵守上游的NVIDIA页面Hyprland Wiki。如果不这么做,可能会导致很多错误,包括可能无法登录、窗口闪烁和CPU使用率较高
  • Hyprland不支持使用NVIDIA GPU,很多用户成功了,但如果一些东西出现了错误,那你只能靠你自己来修复了
  • Also make sure to install the Polkit package, as the lack thereof will cause Hyprland to fail to start. (logind missing permissions)
提示:NVIDA GPU support on Wayland clients is almost at a fixed point. Wayland recently merged Explicit Sync support which was the final issue, once NVIDIA driver version 555 is stable NVIDIA GPU support should be working and hopefully officially supported on Hyprland.

配置

注意:Hyprland Wiki变量中详细解释了列出的大部分选项(以及更多选项)

配置是通过一个配置文件,hyprland.conf 完成的,尽管它支持将配置拆分为多个文件并将它们包含到hyprland.conf中。默认的配置文件在 /usr/share/hyprland/hyprland.conf ,在第一次登录后,为~/.config/hypr/hyprland.conf

hyprland.conf 包括配置设备(键盘、鼠标、触控板、显示器)的指令,以及动画、装饰、布局等设置。你可以设置按键绑定、窗口规则以及在重新加载配置时执行命令(一次或者每次)

每次更新文件时,配置都会自动重新加载。你可以使用 hyprctl reload 来重载以获得相同的效果。对于某些设置(尤其是输入设置),你可能需要重启你的Hyprland回话。

设置也可以使用 hyprctl 动态更改设置,但是这些设置不会保存

键盘

按键映射

Hyprland默认使用 US Qwerty 键盘布局,你可以使用以下配置来配置它

~/.config/hypr/hyprland.conf
# German Colemark layout
input {
    ...
    kb_layout = de
    kb_variant = colemark
    ...
    }

查看 Hyprland Wiki 以查看所有可用选项

注意: Hyprland 将会覆盖 locale 定义,如果你不使用 US 布局的键盘则有必要更改按键映射

键入延迟和速率

虽然Xorg用户将习惯于在服务器级别定义此设置,在Wayland上,每个合成器都会自行处理:

~/.config/hypr/hyprland.conf
# Repeat rate and delay
input {
    ...
    repeat_rate = 25
    repeat_delay = 600
    ...
    }

键盘背光

你可以在Hyprland中使用键盘亮度控制。

Using keyboard brightness controls in Hyprland is possible。安装 brightnessctl then add the related binds (replace keyboard_brightness_*with SUPER,FX or XF86KbdBrightness depending on how your hardware exposes the 键盘背光):

~/.config/hypr/hyprland.conf
# Keyboard backlight
bind = , xf86KbdBrightnessUp, exec, brightnessctl -d *::kbd_backlight set +33%
bind = , xf86KbdBrightnessDown, exec, brightnessctl -d *::kbd_backlight set 33%-

此外,还可以设置更改时弹出通知

媒体按键

在Hyprland上有可能通过使用 XF86Audio 键盘按键和一个外部像 pavucontrol 或者 pamixerplayerctl 的应用程序使用键盘媒体按键控制媒体(翻译可能不准确,请参照下面英语)

Using keyboard media controls in Hyprland is possible by making use of XF86Audio keysyms and an external application like pavucontrol or pamixer and playerctl.

~/.config/hypr/hyprland.conf
# Volume and Media Control
bind = , XF86AudioRaiseVolume, exec, pamixer -i 5 
bind = , XF86AudioLowerVolume, exec, pamixer -d 5 
bind = , XF86AudioMicMute, exec, pamixer --default-source -m
bind = , XF86AudioMute, exec, pamixer -t
bind = , XF86AudioPlay, exec, playerctl play-pause
bind = , XF86AudioPause, exec, playerctl play-pause
bind = , XF86AudioNext, exec, playerctl next
bind = , XF86AudioPrev, exec, playerctl previous

当有更改时,也可以触发 屏幕通知

触摸板手势

作为 Wayland 合成器,Hyprland 完全支持触摸板手势即使它默认是禁用的。使用以下更改来启用它

~/.config/hypr/hyprland.conf
# Enable touchpad gestures
gestures {
    workspace_swipe = true
    workspace_swipe_fingers = 3
}

查看 上游Wiki 来获取所有可用的选项

显示设置

屏幕共享

查看 屏幕共享

作为一个wlroots合成器,Hyprland可以利用 xdg-desktop-portal-wlr 通过 xdg-desktop-portal 在一系列应用程序中启用屏幕录制。

Hyprland 还维护 xdg-desktop-portal-hyprland ,一个支持屏幕共享(包括选区功能)和窗口共享,全局快捷键,并且有一个图形选择其的工具。关于使用该工具在 Hyprland wiki 中有进一步的文档介绍

It is worth noting that xdg-desktop-portal-hyprland does not include a file picker, for which users can additionally install xdg-desktop-portal-gtk.

设置屏幕分辨率

Hyprland 将会尝试去自动检测你的屏幕分辨率。不过在某些情况下它将会失败并默认为故障保护,通常是在存在多个屏幕或你有混合笔记本电脑的情况下。如果屏幕下所有的东西都很大,那么你需要设置你默认的显示器和分辨率

首先使用 hyprctl 找到你的默认显示器:

$ hyprctl monitors
Monitor eDP-1 (ID 0):
        1920x1080@144.003006 at 0x0
        description: Chimei Innolux Corporation 0x153C (eDP-1)
        ...

然后在配置文件中添加你的显示器:

~/.config/hypr/hyprland.conf
...
# Monitor details
monitor=eDP-1,1920x1080@144,0x0,1
...

0x0是一个用于多屏幕设置和最终设置的位置偏移,1是屏幕缩放倍数

亮度

安装 brightnessctl 并添加以下内容:

~/.config/hypr/hyprland.conf
# Screen brightness
bind = , XF86MonBrightnessUp, exec, brightnessctl s +5%
bind = , XF86MonBrightnessDown, exec, brightnessctl s 5%-

此外,还可以设置更改时弹出通知

使用

启动

目前推荐从TTY启动Hyprland

$ Hyprland

虽然从 显示管理器 中启动不是官方支持得,但是用户们报告成功在 GDMSDDM 和其他的显示管理器中成功启动。hyprland中包含一个显示管理器条目,且所有Hyprland AUR 包将会自动生成一个条目。

两种方法都提供相同的结果,加上或减去一些环境变量和服务。

自动登录

用户可以通过一个 显示管理器 或着在登录时采用 Xinit#Autostart X at login 中描述的方法进行自动登录

hyprctl 和 IPC

hyprctl 是一个命令行实用程序,随Hyprland一起安装,用于与显示服务器通信。它允许你向服务器发送命令(相当于配置文件中的命令,但语法略有不同)、设置关键词、发送询问和请求信息。请查看 完整文档

Hyprland同样也受 2 UNIX Sockets的控制并且你可以通过代码或者命令行工具获得Hyprland的更多信息。这些接口在焦点更改(窗口,工作空间,显示器),像创建新的窗口/工作空间和其他的时广播信息

(请结合下面的英文语句阅读,由于我翻译水平不足,非常抱歉!)

Hyprland also exposes 2 UNIX Sockets for controlling and getting information about Hyprland via code or command-line utilities. These sockets broadcast events on focus change (windows, workspaces, monitors), creation of windows/workspace, and so on.

hyprctl 和 IPC 接口都在脚本中有效使用,对于复杂任务控制Hyprland

exec 与 exec-once

在启动应用程序是,选择正确类型的调度器是非常重要的。不正确地使用`exec`可以使应用程序启动多次而占用系统资源然后造成糟糕的状况。造成竞争系统资源的情况然后使你的系统崩溃。

注意:#配置中提到,Hyprland会自动解析hyprland.conf文件每次的更改:不要对每个软件都使用exec


在大多数情况下,你应该使用exec-once在启动时来运行应用程序和守护程序,使用这个命令启动的软件在Hyprland重新加载时将不会再次启动。仅当你绝对确定希望每次重新加载时再次运行该命令时,才使用exec

设置环境变量

通过env关键词在hyprland.conf中设置环境变量,它的语法不同于在Unix shell中使用env命令

这些差异在 上游Wiki中被解释

Hypr生态

警告: 以下所提及的部分软件仍在开发,有bug都是在意料之中的。因此,完整的说明和示例会被略去,直到它足够稳定以成为稳定版。关于使用说明,参见上游 Wiki.

Hyprland 开发团队正在构建一个专门用于Hyprland的软件生态,这些工具将包括调度器,允许使用hyprctl而不是依赖脚本来控制它们。

目前,软件生态包括以下软件:

Hyprpaper

Hyprpaper 是一个壁纸工具,你可以安装hyprpaper来使用它

Hyprpicker

Hyprpicker 是一个用于在你的桌面中抓取一个颜色的工具,你可以安装hyprpickerAUR来使用它

Hypridle

Hypridle 是一个idle管理守护程序,你可以安装hypridle来使用它

Hyprlock

Hyprlock 是一个屏幕锁定管理器,你可以安装hyprlock来使用它

Hyprcursor

Hyprcursor 是一个处理屏幕光标的新格式,它在传统的方式上提升了很多,你可以安装hyprcursor来使用它

Hyprcursor 主题

提示:如果你安装了hyprcursor并且没有安装一个主题,它将会使用你的旧光标设置

光标主题可以使用AUR安装,以下是例子:

将现有的光标主题移植到Hyprcursor,你可以参照上游GitHub仓库

技巧提示

注意: * 对于以下所有部分,通常会有多种方式来达成一个相似的结果,这里的任何事情都是一个基础的例子

文件管理器

在Hyprland环境下,如果需要图形化的文件管理功能,则需要一个兼容Wayland的外部应用程序。以 thunar 为例,我们只需为其分配一个快捷键,操作如下:

~/.config/hypr/hyprland.conf
...
bind = SUPER, E, exec, thunar
...

应用程序启动器

在Hyprland环境下,如果需要启动应用程序,则需要一个兼容Wayland的外部应用程序。以 wofi 软件包为例,我们只需为其分配一个快捷键,操作如下:

~/.config/hypr/hyprland.conf
...
bind = SUPER, F, exec, wofi --show drun
...

Idle

Hyprland 需要一个外部的Wayland兼容的idle管理守护进程。最普遍安装的是swayidleswaylock。你可以使用如下的快捷键来手动锁定屏幕

~/.config/hypr/hyprland.conf
...
bind = SUPER, L, exec, swaylock -f -c 000000
...

自动锁定屏幕和挂起

创建下面的脚本

~/.config/hypr/scripts/sleep.sh
swayidle -w timeout 300 'swaylock -f -c 000000' \
            timeout 600 'systemctl suspend' \
            before-sleep 'swaylock -f -c 000000' &
提示:* 你可以通过修改数值(以秒为单位)来调整无操作时的锁屏超时时间。300是5分钟,600是10分钟等等。

然后调用它:

~/.config/hypr/hyprland.conf
...
exec-once = ~/.config/hypr/scripts/sleep.sh
...

在超时期限后使用DPMS关闭屏幕

Hyprland 有一个内置的调度器来控制DPMS请求,不过不建议使用它作为一个直接按键绑定,这样做的结果是你不能打开重新打开你的屏幕,且需要你重新启动

更改在上文的脚本并将其更改为:

~/.config/hypr/scripts/sleep.sh
swayidle -w timeout 300 'swaylock -f -c 000000' \
            timeout 600 'hyprctl dispatch dpms off' \
            resume 'hyprctl dispatch dpms on' \
            timeout 900 'systemctl suspend' \
            before-sleep 'swaylock -f -c 000000' &
提示:hyprctl dispatch dpms on 命令必须直接来自在脚本中的 hyprctl dispatch dpms off 命令,使其能正常地工作。resume 命令与上面的'timeout相关联
当使用应用程序时停止DPMS

The above setup will result in your monitor powering off while you are doing things like playing a game, watching a video or listening to music where you might not touch the system for longer than the timeout period.

To fix this you can either use Hyprlands built in Window Rules V2 function which has a idleinhibit rule or you can install one of either idlehack-gitAUR or sway-audio-idle-inhibit-gitAUR. The former uses D-Bus to prevent Swayidle requests whenever Firefox or Chromium are playing audio/video. The latter prevents Swayidle requests whenever any application is playing audio.

For programs that use org.freedesktop.ScreenSaver.inhibit to pause the screensaver, you can install wscreensaver-bridge-gitAUR[损坏的链接:包未找到] to implement it for Hyprland (or any Wayland compositor that support the idle-inhibit protocol).

状态栏

在Hyprland环境下,如果需要状态栏,则需要一个兼容Wayland的外部应用程序。以 waybar软件包为例,操作如下:

~/.config/hypr/hyprland.conf
...
exec-once = waybar -c ~/.config/waybar/waybar.conf
...

Workspace overview

waybar has a built in, fully customisable module that supports Hyprland workspace switching natively.

See the waybar Wiki [1] for details.

Polkit authentication

Polkit authentication requires the use of an external authentication agent. Hyprland recommends using polkit-kde-agent but any should work.

Call it as follows:

~/.config/hypr/hyprland.conf
...
exec-once = /usr/lib/polkit-kde-authentication-agent-1
...

桌面壁纸

在Hyprland环境下,如果需要管理桌面壁纸,则需要一个兼容Wayland的外部应用程序。以 swww 软件包为例,操作如下:

~/.config/hypr/hyprland.conf
...
exec-once = swww-daemon
exec-once = swww img path/to/image
...

Using a script to change wallpaper every X minutes

Create the following script and make sure its executable:

~/.config/hypr/scripts/swww-random
#!/bin/bash

# This script will randomly go through the files of a directory, setting it
# up as the wallpaper at regular intervals
#
# NOTE: this script uses bash (not POSIX shell) for the RANDOM variable

if [[ $# -lt 1 ]] || [[ ! -d $1   ]]; then
	echo "Usage:
	$0 <dir containing images>"
	exit 1
fi

# Edit below to control the images transition
export SWWW_TRANSITION_FPS=144
export SWWW_TRANSITION_STEP=2
export SWWW_TRANSITION_TYPE=random

# This controls (in seconds) when to switch to the next image
INTERVAL=300

while true; do
	find "$1" \
		| while read -r img; do
			echo "$((RANDOM % 1000)):$img"
		done \
		| sort -n | cut -d':' -f2- \
		| while read -r img; do
            if [[ "$img" != "$1" ]]; then
			    swww img "$img"
			    sleep $INTERVAL
            fi 
		done
done

Next create a new folder to store background images, something like ~/.config/hypr/backgrounds should work fine, and populate it with any images you want. Finally call the script:

~/.config/hypr/hyprland.conf
...
exec-once = swww init
exec-once = ~/.config/hypr/scripts/swww-random ~/.config/hypr/background
...

屏幕通知

屏幕上对亮度和音量调整等操作显示通知的功能可以借助外部的通知服务程序来实现。然而,深入探讨这一主题超出了本页面的说明范围。这里我们将会聚焦于安装 mako 的操作,现在请继续进行 安装

See Desktop notifications for further instructions and Desktop notifications#Standalone for a list of alternatives.

注意: * All scripts offered here are examples and will very likely need to be adjusted for your setup.

Mako

Mako is a lightweight notification daemon, you can read mako(5) for details. Its configuration file is ~/.config/mako/config, icons used for OSD are stored at ~/.config/mako/icons/ and should be in PNG format.

For the rest of this section all the images used by the scripts are available from this GitHub folder.

Keyboard backlight notifications

First create the following script:

~/.config/hypr/scripts/kbbacklight
#!/usr/bin/env bash

iDIR="$HOME/.config/mako/icons"

# Get brightness
get_backlight() {
	LIGHT="$(cat /sys/class/leds/*::kbd_backlight/brightness)"
	echo "${LIGHT}"
}

# Get icons
get_icon() {
	current="$(cat /sys/class/leds/*::kbd_backlight/brightness)"

	if [[ ("$current" -ge "0") && ("$current" -le "1") ]]; then
		icon="$iDIR/brightness-20.png"
	elif [[ ("$current" -ge "1") && ("$current" -le "2") ]]; then
		icon="$iDIR/brightness-60.png"
	elif [[ ("$current" -ge "2") && ("$current" -le "3") ]]; then
		icon="$iDIR/brightness-100.png"
	fi
}

# Notify
notify_user() {
	notify-send -h string:x-canonical-private-synchronous:sys-notify -u low -i "$icon" "Keyboard Brightness : $(brightnessctl -d '*::kbd_backlight' g)"
}

# Increase brightness
inc_backlight() {
	brightnessctl -d *::kbd_backlight set 33%+ && get_icon && notify_user
}

# Decrease brightness
dec_backlight() {
	brightnessctl -d *::kbd_backlight set 33%- && get_icon && notify_user
}

# Zero brightness
zero_backlight() {
	brightnessctl -d *::kbd_backlight s 0%
}

# Full brightness
full_backlight() {
	brightnessctl -d *::kbd_backlight s 100%
}

# Execute accordingly
if [[ "$1" == "--get" ]]; then
	brightnessctl -d '*::kbd_backlight' g
elif [[ "$1" == "--inc" ]]; then
	inc_backlight
elif [[ "$1" == "--dec" ]]; then
	dec_backlight
elif [[ "$1" == "--zero" ]]; then
	zero_backlight
elif [[ "$1" == "--full" ]]; then
	full_backlight

else
	get_backlight
fi

Then add the following or edit any existing one:

~/.config/hypr/hyprland.conf
# Keyboard brightness
bind = keyboard_brightness_up_shortcut, exec, ~/.config/hypr/scripts/kbbacklight --inc
bind = keyboard_brightness_down_shortcut, exec, ~/.config/hypr/scripts/kbbacklight --dec
Media key notifications

First create the following script:

~/.config/hypr/scripts/volume
#!/usr/bin/env bash

iDIR="$HOME/.config/mako/icons"

# Get Volume
get_volume() {
	volume=$(pamixer --get-volume)
	echo "$volume"
}

# Get icons
get_icon() {
	current=$(get_volume)
	if [[ "$current" -eq "0" ]]; then
		echo "$iDIR/volume-mute.png"
	elif [[ ("$current" -ge "0") && ("$current" -le "30") ]]; then
		echo "$iDIR/volume-low.png"
	elif [[ ("$current" -ge "30") && ("$current" -le "60") ]]; then
		echo "$iDIR/volume-mid.png"
	elif [[ ("$current" -ge "60") && ("$current" -le "100") ]]; then
		echo "$iDIR/volume-high.png"
	fi
}

# Notify
notify_user() {
	notify-send -h string:x-canonical-private-synchronous:sys-notify -u low -i "$(get_icon)" "Volume : $(get_volume) %"
}

# Increase Volume
inc_volume() {
	pamixer -i 5 && notify_user
}

# Decrease Volume
dec_volume() {
	pamixer -d 5 && notify_user
}

# Toggle Mute
toggle_mute() {
	if [ "$(pamixer --get-mute)" == "false" ]; then
		pamixer -m && notify-send -h string:x-canonical-private-synchronous:sys-notify -u low -i "$iDIR/volume-mute.png" "Volume Switched OFF"
	elif [ "$(pamixer --get-mute)" == "true" ]; then
		pamixer -u && notify-send -h string:x-canonical-private-synchronous:sys-notify -u low -i "$(get_icon)" "Volume Switched ON"
	fi
}

# Toggle Mic
toggle_mic() {
	if [ "$(pamixer --default-source --get-mute)" == "false" ]; then
		pamixer --default-source -m && notify-send -h string:x-canonical-private-synchronous:sys-notify -u low -i "$iDIR/microphone-mute.png" "Microphone Switched OFF"
	elif [ "$(pamixer --default-source --get-mute)" == "true" ]; then
		pamixer -u --default-source u && notify-send -h string:x-canonical-private-synchronous:sys-notify -u low -i "$iDIR/microphone.png" "Microphone Switched ON"
	fi
}
# Get icons
get_mic_icon() {
	current=$(pamixer --default-source --get-volume)
	if [[ "$current" -eq "0" ]]; then
		echo "$iDIR/microphone.png"
	elif [[ ("$current" -ge "0") && ("$current" -le "30") ]]; then
		echo "$iDIR/microphone.png"
	elif [[ ("$current" -ge "30") && ("$current" -le "60") ]]; then
		echo "$iDIR/microphone.png"
	elif [[ ("$current" -ge "60") && ("$current" -le "100") ]]; then
		echo "$iDIR/microphone.png"
	fi
}
# Notify
notify_mic_user() {
	notify-send -h string:x-canonical-private-synchronous:sys-notify -u low -i "$(get_mic_icon)" "Mic-Level : $(pamixer --default-source --get-volume) %"
}

# Increase MIC Volume
inc_mic_volume() {
	pamixer --default-source -i 5 && notify_mic_user
}

# Decrease MIC Volume
dec_mic_volume() {
	pamixer --default-source -d 5 && notify_mic_user
}

# Execute accordingly
if [[ "$1" == "--get" ]]; then
	get_volume
elif [[ "$1" == "--inc" ]]; then
	inc_volume
elif [[ "$1" == "--dec" ]]; then
	dec_volume
elif [[ "$1" == "--toggle" ]]; then
	toggle_mute
elif [[ "$1" == "--toggle-mic" ]]; then
	toggle_mic
elif [[ "$1" == "--get-icon" ]]; then
	get_icon
elif [[ "$1" == "--get-mic-icon" ]]; then
	get_mic_icon
elif [[ "$1" == "--mic-inc" ]]; then
	inc_mic_volume
elif [[ "$1" == "--mic-dec" ]]; then
	dec_mic_volume
else
	get_volume
fi

Then add the following (or edit any existing binds):

~/.config/hypr/hyprland.conf
# Volume
bind = , XF86AudioRaiseVolume, exec, ~/.config/hypr/scripts/volume --inc 
bind = , XF86AudioLowerVolume, exec, ~/.config/hypr/scripts/volume --dec 
bind = , XF86AudioMicMute, exec, ~/.config/hypr/scripts/volume --toggle-mic 
bind = , XF86AudioMute, exec, ~/.config/hypr/scripts/volume --toggle
Screen backlight notifications

First create the following script:

~/.config/hypr/scripts/backlight
!/usr/bin/env bash

iDIR="$HOME/.config/mako/icons"

# Get brightness
get_backlight() {
	LIGHT=$(printf "%.0f\n" $(brightnessctl g))
	echo "${LIGHT}"
}

# Get icons
get_icon() {
	current="$(get_backlight)"
	if [[ ("$current" -ge "0") && ("$current" -le "19200") ]]; then
		icon="$iDIR/brightness-20.png"
	elif [[ ("$current" -ge "19200") && ("$current" -le "38400") ]]; then
		icon="$iDIR/brightness-40.png"
	elif [[ ("$current" -ge "38400") && ("$current" -le "57600") ]]; then
		icon="$iDIR/brightness-60.png"
	elif [[ ("$current" -ge "57600") && ("$current" -le "76800") ]]; then
		icon="$iDIR/brightness-80.png"
	elif [[ ("$current" -ge "76800") && ("$current" -le "96000") ]]; then
		icon="$iDIR/brightness-100.png"
	fi
}

# Notify
notify_user() {
	notify-send -h string:x-canonical-private-synchronous:sys-notify -u low -i "$icon" "Brightness : $(get_backlight)"
}

# Increase brightness
inc_backlight() {
	brightnessctl s +5% && get_icon && notify_user
}

# Decrease brightness
dec_backlight() {
	brightnessctl s 5%- && get_icon && notify_user
}

# Execute accordingly
if [[ "$1" == "--get" ]]; then
	get_backlight
elif [[ "$1" == "--inc" ]]; then
	inc_backlight
elif [[ "$1" == "--dec" ]]; then
	dec_backlight
else
	get_backlight
fi

Then add the following (or edit any existing binds):

~/.config/hypr/hyprland.conf
# Screen brightness
bind = , XF86MonBrightnessUp, exec, ~/.config/hypr/scripts/backlight --inc 
bind = , XF86MonBrightnessDown, exec, ~/.config/hypr/scripts/backlight --dec
Keyboard language notifications

To run this script, you need a command-line JSON processor gojqAUR.

First create the following script:

~/.config/hypr/scripts/lang
#!/usr/bin/env bash

icon="$HOME/.config/mako/icons/language.png"

# Get language
get_lang() {
	lang=$(hyprctl devices -j | gojq -r '.keyboards[] | select(.name == "at-translated-set-2-keyboard") | .active_keymap' | cut -c 1-2 | tr 'A-Z' 'a-z')
	case $lang in
		en)
			lang="English language"
			;;
		ru)
			lang="Русский язык"
			;;
		uk)
			lang="Українська мова"
			;;
	esac
	echo $lang
}

# Notify
notify-send -h string:x-canonical-private-synchronous:sys-notify -u low -i "$icon" "$(get_lang)"

Then add the following (or edit any existing binds):

~/.config/hypr/hyprland.conf
device:at-translated-set-2-keyboard {
    kb_layout = us,ru,ua
    kb_variant = lang
    kb_options = grp:win_space_toggle
}

# Language
bind = SUPER, SPACE, exec, ~/.config/hypr/scripts/lang

Power control

Hyprland requires a wayland-compatible external application for power control. Using nwg-barAUR as an example, we simply need to bind it as follows:

~/.config/hypr/hyprland.conf
...
bind = SUPER, ESCAPE, exec, nwg-bar
...

Clipboard

Wayland clipboard behaviour deletes data when closing the application we copied it from. Other desktop environments work around this by using dedicated clipboard managers and on Hyprland there are multiple compatible choices. See the upstream Wiki for more information.

This section will cover cliphist as it supports copying images as well as text, start by adding the following:

~/.config/hypr/hyprland.conf
...
exec-once = wl-paste --type text --watch cliphist store 
exec-once = wl-paste --type image --watch cliphist store
...

Then create a bind to call the history in your chosen application launcher:

~/.config/hypr/hyprland.conf
...
bind = SUPER, V, exec, cliphist list | wofi --dmenu | cliphist decode | wl-copy
...

Now pressing Super+v will open up a wofi window with a clipboard history list.

Enable/disable devices

To enable/disable devices (e.g. touchpad), first use

$ hyprctl devices

to get the name of your device.

Put these lines of code into your configuration file (replace <device_name> with the name of your device queried above) to turn the device on/off:

~/.config/hypr/hyprland.conf
device:<device_name> {
  enabled = {true/false}
}

To dynamically switch the device on/off use hyprctl:

$ hyprctl keyword "device:<device_name>:enabled" {true|false}

You can also create a keybinding, e.g.:

Troubleshooting

xdg-desktop-portal-hyprland is using a lot of CPU

This is a known bug [2] that should be resolved in the latest Git build. You can work around it by calling the nuclear script from the Hyprland wiki, as outlined usage here[失效链接 2024-07-30 ⓘ], in your hyprland.conf file.

Native (wayland) electron apps flickering on NVIDIA

It is a widespread issue among NVIDIA users on Hyprland [3], [4] because of lack of support for explicit sync in Hyprland [5]. Recommended temporary fix is using X11 (XWayland) with the problematic apps by passing them --ozone-platform-hint=x11, or setting env = ELECTRON_OZONE_PLATFORM_HINT,x11 in ~/.config/hypr/hyprland.conf to force all electron apps to run using XWayland.
