# Status Bars
|
|
|
|
Launch your bar with `exec-once=`.
|
|
|
|
## Waybar
|
|
|
|
Waybar is a GTK status bar made specifically for wlroots compositors.
|
|
|
|
To use it, it's recommended to either use the AUR package `waybar-hyprland-git`, or compile manually with the `USE_EXPERIMENTAL` flag enabled.
|
|
|
|
To compile manually:
|
|
|
|
Clone the source, then do:
|
|
```sh
|
|
sed -i 's/zext_workspace_handle_v1_activate(workspace_handle_);/const std::string command = "hyprctl dispatch workspace " + name_;\n\tsystem(command.c_str());/g' src/modules/wlr/workspace_manager.cpp
|
|
|
|
meson --prefix=/usr --buildtype=plain --auto-features=enabled --wrap-mode=nodownload build
|
|
meson configure -Dexperimental=true build
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
and finally:
|
|
```sh
|
|
sudo ninja -C build install
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
If you want to use the workspaces module, it's called `wlr/workspaces`.
|
|
|
|

## eww
|
|
|
|
In order to use [eww](https://github.com/elkowar/eww), you first have to
|
|
install it, either using your distro's package manager, by searching
|
|
`eww-wayland`, or by manually compiling. In the latter case, you need to
|
|
have `cargo` and `rustc` installed, then follow the [instructions](https://elkowar.github.io/eww).
|
|
|
|
### Configuration
|
|
|
|
After you've successfully installed eww, you can move onto configuring it.
|
|
There are a few examples listed in the [Readme](https://github.com/elkowar/eww),
|
|
we highly recommend you to also read through the
|
|
[Configuration options](https://elkowar.github.io/eww/configuration.html).
|
|
|
|
**NOTE:** Read
|
|
[the wayland section](https://elkowar.github.io/eww/configuration.html#wayland)
|
|
carefully before asking why your bar doesn't work. |
