This module provides information about the river tags

Description

This module uses river's (https://github.com/ifreund/river, a dynamic tiling Wayland compositor) status protocol to provide information about the river tags.

It has an interface similar to the i3/sway module.

The configuration for the river module specifies one title particle, which will be instantiated once for each seat, with tags representing the seats' name, the title of the seats' currently focused view, and its current river "mode".

It also specifies a content template particle, which is instantiated once for all 32 river tags. This means you probably want to use a map particle to hide unused river tags.

TAGS (for the content particle)

Name	Type	Description
id	int	River tag number
urgent	bool	True if the river tag has at least one urgent view.
visible	bool	True if the river tag is focused by at least one output (i.e. visible on at least one monitor).
focused	bool	True if the river tag is visible and has keyboard focus.
occupied	bool	True if the river tag has views (i.e. windows).
state	string	Set to urgent if urgent is true, focused if focused is true, unfocused if visible is true, but focused is false, or invisible if the river tag is not visible on any monitors.

TAGS (for the title particle)

Name	Type	Description
seat	string	The name of the seat.
title	string	The seat's focused view's title.
mode	string	The seat's current mode (entered with e.g. riverctl enter-mode foobar).
layout	string	Current layout of the output currently focused by the seat.

Configuration

Name	Type	Req	Description
title	particle	no	Particle that will be instantiated with the seat and title tags.
content	particle	yes	Template particle that will be instantiated once for all of the 32 river tags.
all-monitors	bool	no	When set to false (the default), tags reflect river tags and seats for the monitor yambar is on only. When set to true, tags reflect the union of all monitors.

Examples

  bar:
    left:
      - river:
          title: {string: { text: "{seat} - {title} ({layout}/{mode})" }}
          content:
            map:
              conditions:
                ~occupied: {empty: {}}
                occupied:
                  string:
                    margin: 5
                    text: "{id}: {state}"
