Development

It's easy to write your own plugin by making a python package and then indicating it's name as the plugin name.

Writing plugins

You can start enabling a plugin called "experimental" and add code to plugins/experimental.py. A better way is to copy this as a starting point and make your own python module. Plugins can be loaded with full python module path, eg: "mymodule.pyprlandplugin", the loaded module must provide an Extension interface.

Check the interface.py file to know the base methods, also have a look at the other plugins for working examples.

To get more details when an error is occurring, export DEBUG=1 in your shell before running.

Creating a command

Just add a method called run_<name of your command>, eg with "togglezoom" command:

async def init(self):
  self.zoomed = False

async def run_togglezoom(self, args):
  if self.zoomed:
    await hyprctl('misc:cursor_zoom_factor 1', 'keyword')
  else:
    await hyprctl('misc:cursor_zoom_factor 2', 'keyword')
  self.zoomed = not self.zoomed

Reacting to an event

Similar as a command, implement some event_<the event you are interested in> method.
