Error when spawning new scratchpad window

[James-Randall-14]

Trying to add some scratchpad windows to my hyprland config (built from source on Arch), encountering the following error:

Bug detected, please report on https://github.com/fdev31/pyprland/issues
Client address is invalid
Traceback (most recent call last):

The contents of my pyprland.conf:

{
  "pyprland": {
    "plugins": [
      "scratchpads",
      "lost_windows"
    ]
  },
  "scratchpads": {
    "volume": {
      "command": "pavucontrol",
      "animation": "fromRight",
      "margin": 40,
      "size": "20% 40%",
      "position": "75% 55%",
      "lazy": true
    }
  }
}

And the relevant parts of my hyprland.conf:

# Scratchpad Configuration
# Add scratchpads in pyprland.conf

bind = $mainMod,V,exec,pypr toggle volume
windowrule = float,^(pavucontrol)$
windowrule = workspace special silent,^(pavucontrol)$

EDIT: Just noticed that I do not get this printout when I run pypr toggle volume, only when I launch the window with my Hyprland binding.

Can you provide a bit more details ?
Is the log on start or when you try to show the scratch ?
Do you have an existing pavucontrol running which may prevent this one to fully start ?
Does it happen if you use another app which is quick to start, like a terminal ?

There should be zero differences between toggling a command via hyprland's binding or in a terminal, I'm a bit confused here. Did you ever install pyprland "by hand" ? (no using the AUR package)

Please provide a minimal session example containing the full log.
Also note that I updated the AUR package just now ;)

[James-Randall-14]

I built from source to install, without the AUR package. I will try the AUR package now. The issue occurs whenever I try to show a scatchpad, and I don't have an existing pavucontrol instance. And it does still occur when I launch alacritty instead of pavucontrol.
Thanks : >

Remove any "manual install" and try to play with the options "animation" & "lazy".
Then please the full logs (or at least some history before the problem) so I can have a look.

[fdev31]

I made a lot of changes to sanitize the code recently.
I have high hopes your issue comes from the JSON syntax (moving to TOML should fix it) or has been addressed in version 1.5.1.

[fdev31]

Please reopen with the requested information if you experience something similar with the latest version. I'm assuming this has been fixed.
