It's recommended to uninstall any other portal implementations to avoid conflicts with the `-hyprland` or `-wlr` ones.
`-kde` and `-gnome` portals are known to cause issues.
The `-kde` portal is unfortunately a hard dependency of `plasma-integration` in Arch Linux. To uninstall it,
run the command `pacman -Rnsdd xdg-desktop-portal-kde`, which skips all dependency checks.
Both `-wlr` and `-hyprland` installed at once will also cause conflicts. Choose one and uninstall the other.
Please note that `-hyprland` does not implement a file picker, for that, I recommend installing `xdg-desktop-portal-gtk`,
which will not cause conflicts.
To keep any incompatible portal installed the relvant `.portal` file can be moved out of
'/usr/share/xdg-desktop-portal/portals/' to temporarily disable the portal. A script and the `exec-once`
directive can be used to automate this process at startup:
```bash
#!/bin/sh
# usage: $0 portal-name [enable/disable]
# args:
# portal-name: the name of the .portal file in /usr/share/xdg-desktop-portal/portals/ without the extension
# [enable/disable]: optional - whether to move the file into $ENABLED_PORTAL_DIR to enable it,
# or to move it into $DISABLED_PORTAL_DIR to disable it. The portal will be toggled
# if this argument is omitted.
ENABLED_PORTAL_DIR="/usr/share/xdg-desktop-portal/portals"
# needs to be created manually
DISABLED_PORTAL_DIR="/usr/share/xdg-desktop-portal/disabled-portals"
is_portal_enabled() {
[ -f "$ENABLED_PORTAL_DIR/$1.portal" ]
}
is_portal_disabled() {
[ -f "$DISABLED_PORTAL_DIR/$1.portal" ]
}
enable_portal() {
mv "$DISABLED_PORTAL_DIR/$1.portal" "$ENABLED_PORTAL_DIR/$1.portal"
}
disable_portal() {
mv "$ENABLED_PORTAL_DIR/$1.portal" "$DISABLED_PORTAL_DIR/$1.portal"
}
remove_disabled_portal() {
rm "$DISABLED_PORTAL_DIR/$1.portal"
}
PORTAL=$1
ENABLE=${2:-$(is_portal_enabled "$PORTAL" && echo "disable" || echo "enable")}
if [ "$ENABLE" = "enable" ]; then
if is_portal_enabled "$PORTAL"; then
# remove disabled portal if enabled portal exists as well,
# as the enabled portal is most likely a newly installed version
is_portal_disabled "$PORTAL" && remove_disabled_portal "$PORTAL"
else
is_portal_disabled "$PORTAL" && enable_portal "$PORTAL"
fi
else
is_portal_enabled "$PORTAL" && disable_portal "$PORTAL"
fi
```
The incompatible portal can then be re-enabled with the same script inside the autostart mechanisim of the intented
environment. Keep in mind that the directory for disabled portals needs to be created manually and this script needs
to have access to /usr/share/xdg-desktop-portal/portals/ and the disabled directory.

XDPH doesn't implement a file picker. For that, I recommend installing `xdg-desktop-portal-gtk` alongside XDPH.

## Usage
@ -183,6 +116,3 @@ If you get long app launch times, or screensharing does not work, consult the lo
`systemctl --user status xdg-desktop-portal-hyprland`
if you see a crash, it's most likely you are missing `qt6-wayland` and/or `qt5-wayland`.
if you don't, make _sure_ you don't have `-kde` or `-gnome` installed. Only `-gtk`
will work with `-hyprland` or `-wlr` on Hyprland.
