cpywm
cpywm - CPython powered window manager
cpywm is CPython powered tiling window manager for x11. It's entirely configured with Python and uses CPython pure embedding.
Running cpywm will expose a cpywm
module in Python which
can be used by Python code to create configurations that the
window manager will then subsequently use.
Requirements
- CPython 3.7
- Xlib header files
Installation
git clone https://github.com/mental32/cpywm
cd cpywm
sudo make install
Running cpywm
Add the following line to your .xinitrc
to start cpywm using startx:
exec cpywm
In order to connect cpywm to a specific display, make sure that the DISPLAY
environment variable is set correctly, e.g.:
DISPLAY=foo.bar:1 exec cpywm
This will start dwm on display :1
of the host foo.bar
.
Configuration
The configuration of cpywm is done by creating a custom Python package and supplying cpywm an import path or a file path.
exec cpywm ~/.config/cpywm/config.py
If no config was supplied cpywm will use the (default configuration)[./default.py]
