# Reporting suggestions
|
|
Suggestions are welcome.
|
|
|
|
Many features can be implemented using bash scripts and Hyprland sockets, read up on those [Here](https://wiki.hyprland.org/IPC). Please do not suggest features that can be implemented as such.

# Reporting bugs
|
|
|
|
All bug reports should have the following:
|
|
- Steps to reproduce
|
|
- Expected outcome
|
|
- Noted outcome
|
|
|
|
If your bug is one that doesn't crash Hyprland, but feels like invalid behavior, that's all you need to say.
|
|
|
|
If your bug crashes Hyprland, append additionally:
|
|
- The Hyprland log
|
|
- Your config
|
|
- (v0.22.0beta and up) The Hyprland Crash Report
|
|
- (v0.21.0beta and below) Coredump / Coredump analysis (with a stacktrace)
|
|
|
|
**Important**: Please do NOT use any package for reporting bugs! Clone and compile from source.
|
|
|
|
## Obtaining the Hyprland log
|
|
If you are in a TTY, and the hyprland session that crashed was the last one you launched, the log will be printed with
|
|
```
|
|
cat /tmp/hypr/$(ls -t /tmp/hypr/ | head -n 1)/hyprland.log
|
|
```
|
|
feel free to send it to a file, save, copy, etc.
|
|
|
|
if you are in a Hyprland session, and you want the log of the last session, use
|
|
```
|
|
cat /tmp/hypr/$(ls -t /tmp/hypr/ | head -n 2 | tail -n 1)/hyprland.log
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
basically, directories in /tmp/hypr are your sessions.
|
|
|
|
## Obtaining the Hyprland Crash Report (v0.22.0beta and up)
|
|
|
|
If you have `$XDG_CACHE_HOME` set, the crash report directory is `$XDG_CACHE_HOME/hyprland`. If not, it's `$HOME/.cache/hyprland`.
|
|
|
|
Go to the crash report directory and you should find a file named `hyprlandCrashReport[XXXX].txt` where `[XXXX]` is the PID of the process that crashed.
|
|
|
|
Attach that file to your issue.
|
|
## Obtaining the Hyprland coredump (v0.21.0beta and below)
|
|
If you are on systemd, you can simply use
|
|
```
|
|
coredumpctl
|
|
```
|
|
then go to the end (press END on your keyboard) and remember the PID of the last `Hyprland` occurrence. It's the first number after the time, for example `2891`.
|
|
|
|
exit coredumpctl (ctrl+c) and use
|
|
```
|
|
coredumpctl info [PID]
|
|
```
|
|
where `[PID]` is the PID you remembered.
|
|
|
|
## Obtaining the debug Hyprland coredump
|
|
A debug coredump provides more information for debugging and may speed up the process of fixing the bug.
|
|
|
|
Make sure you're on latest git. Run `git pull --recurse-submodules` to sync everything.
|
|
|
|
1. [Compile Hyprland with debug mode](http://wiki.hyprland.org/Contributing-and-Debugging/#build-in-debug-mode)
|
|
> Note: The config file used will be `hyprlandd.conf` instead of `hyprland.conf`
|
|
|
|
2. `cd ~`
|
|
3. For your own convenience, launch Hyprland from a tty with the envvar `ASAN_OPTIONS="log_path=asan.log" ~/path/to/Hyprland`
|
|
4. Reproduce the crash. Hyprland should instantly close.
|
|
5. Check out your `~` and find a file called `asan.log.XXXXX` where `XXXXX` will be a number corresponding to the PID of the Hyprland instance that crashed.
|
|
6. That is your coredump. Attach it to your issue.
