title: Contributing and Debugging
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
Everything needed to build and debug Hyprland is included inside the provided
|
||||
`devShell`.
|
||||
|
||||
To use it in the cloned repo, simply run `nix develop`.
|
||||
|
||||
## Build in debug mode
|
||||
|
||||
A debug build is already provided through
|
||||
`hyprland.packages.${pkgs.stdenv.hostPlatform.system}.hyprland-debug`.
|
||||
|
||||
## Bisecting an issue
|
||||
|
||||
Follow the
|
||||
[Bisecting an issue](https://wiki.hyprland.org/Crashes-and-Bugs/#bisecting-an-issue)
|
||||
guide. To build, run `nix build '.?submodules=1'`.
|
||||
|
||||
To view logs, pass the `--print-build-logs` (`-L`) flag.
|
||||
|
||||
To keep a failed build directory, pass the `--keep-failed` flag.

||||
|
||||
## Building the Wayland stack with ASan
|
||||
|
||||
Run `nix develop` first, then follow the
|
||||
[Building with ASan](https://wiki.hyprland.org/Crashes-and-Bugs/#bisecting-an-issue)
|
||||
guide.
|
||||
|
||||
## Manual building
|
||||
|
||||
Nix works differently than other build systems, so it has its own abstractions
|
||||
over popular build systems such as Meson, CMake and Ninja.
|
||||
|
||||
In order to manually build Hyprland, you can run the following commands, while
|
||||
in the `nix develop` shell.
|
||||
|
||||
For CMake:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
$ cmakeConfigurePhase # to run the CMake configure phase
|
||||
$ ninjaBuildPhase # to run the Ninja build phase
|
||||
$ ninjaInstallPhase # to run the Ninja install phase
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
For Meson:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
$ mesonConfigurePhase # to run the Meson configure phase
|
||||
$ ninjaBuildPhase # to run the Ninja build phase
|
||||
$ mesonInstallPhase # to run the Meson install phase
|
||||
```

title: Plugins
|

---
|
||||
|
||||
Hyprland plugins are managed differently on Nix than on other distros. The most
|
||||
notable change is that `hyprpm` is unsupported, but we have our own way of
|
||||
building plugins.
|
||||
|
||||
## Using plugins from Nixpkgs
|
||||
|
||||
In Nixpkgs, there are Hyprland plugins packaged for the Hyprland version in
|
||||
Nixpkgs. You can use them like this:
|
||||
|
||||
```nix
|
||||
{pkgs, ...}: {
|
||||
wayland.windowManager.hyprland.plugins = [
|
||||
pkgs.hyprlandPlugins.<plugin>
|
||||
];
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
You can find which plugins are included using
|
||||
`nix search nixpkgs#hyprlandPlugins`.
|
||||
|
||||
## hyprland-plugins
|
||||
|
||||
Official plugins made/maintained by vaxry.
|
||||
|
||||
To use these plugins, it is recommended that you are already using the Hyprland
|
||||
flake, and **not** the Nixpkgs version.
|
||||
|
||||
First, add the flake to your flake inputs:
|
||||
|
||||
```nix
|
||||
{
|
||||
inputs = {
|
||||
hyprland.url = "git+https://github.com/hyprwm/Hyprland?submodules=1";
|
||||
|
||||
hyprland-plugins = {
|
||||
url = "github:hyprwm/hyprland-plugins";
|
||||
inputs.hyprland.follows = "hyprland";
|
||||
};
|
||||
|
||||
# ...
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
The `inputs.hyprland.follows` line makes hyprland-plugins use the exact Hyprland
|
||||
revision you have locked. This means there aren't any version mismatches, as
|
||||
long as you update both inputs at once.
|
||||
|
||||
The next step is adding the plugins to Hyprland:
|
||||
|
||||
```nix
|
||||
{inputs, pkgs, ...}: {
|
||||
wayland.windowManager.hyprland = {
|
||||
enable = true;
|
||||
|
||||
plugins = [
|
||||
inputs.hyprland-plugins.packages.${pkgs.stdenv.hostPlatform.system}.<plugin>
|
||||
];
|
||||
};
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Building plugins with Nix
|
||||
|
||||
The plugins inside Nixpkgs, as well as the ones in `hyprland-plugins`, are built
|
||||
using a general function, `mkHyprlandPlugin`. Any plugin can be made to work
|
||||
with it. The general usage is presented below, exemplified through hy3's
|
||||
derivation:
|
||||
|
||||
```nix
|
||||
{pkgs, ...}: {
|
||||
hy3 = pkgs.callPackage ({
|
||||
lib,
|
||||
fetchFromGitHub,
|
||||
cmake,
|
||||
hyprland,
|
||||
hyprlandPlugins,
|
||||
}:
|
||||
hyprlandPlugins.mkHyprlandPlugin pkgs.hyprland {
|
||||
pluginName = "hy3";
|
||||
version = "0.39.1";
|
||||
|
||||
src = fetchFromGitHub {
|
||||
owner = "outfoxxed";
|
||||
repo = "hy3";
|
||||
rev = "hl0.39.1";
|
||||
hash = "sha256-PqVld+oFziSt7VZTNBomPyboaMEAIkerPQFwNJL/Wjw=";
|
||||
};
|
||||
|
||||
# any nativeBuildInputs required for the plugin
|
||||
nativeBuildInputs = [cmake];
|
||||
|
||||
# set any buildInputs that are not already included in Hyprland
|
||||
# by default, Hyprland and its dependencies are included
|
||||
buildInputs = [];
|
||||
|
||||
meta = {
|
||||
homepage = "https://github.com/outfoxxed/hy3";
|
||||
description = "Hyprland plugin for an i3 / sway like manual tiling layout";
|
||||
license = lib.licenses.gpl3;
|
||||
platforms = lib.platforms.linux;
|
||||
maintainers = with lib.maintainers; [aacebedo];
|
||||
};
|
||||
});
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
In a similar manner to `stdenv.mkDerivation`, `mkHyprlandPlugin` takes an
|
||||
attrset with mostly the same options as `mkDerivation`, as it is essentially a
|
||||
wrapper around it.
|
||||
|
||||
The exception is that it also takes a `hyprland` package before the attrset, in
|
||||
case you want to build with a different package than the one in Nixpkgs.
|
||||
|
||||
This is not always the best way to build for a different version, and it is
|
||||
recommended that you use an overlay to apply your desired Hyprland package in
|
||||
Nixpkgs instead.
