Tryfol

A custom Wayland bar written in Rust + GTK4.

Note: This project is a work in progress (WIP).

Modules to refactor

• Bluetooth
• Dbusmenu (Potentially useful resource)
  • Use custom widgets to reduce usage of Rc<Mutex<...>>
  • Test with: Discord, blueman, heroic, nm-applet
• Audio (PipeWire)
• Network (Netlink)
• "things.rs"

TODO List (excluding refactors)

• Full Bluetooth control (to replace blueman-manager)
  • Investigate where connection notifications originate (likely KDE, but may be Blueman or something else), and implement them.
  • Don't forget to display battery levels somewhere (change icon color depending on battery level, and show precise level in tooltip)
  • If possible, enable bluetooth when trying to connect device (is it possible to list unconnected devices when bluetooth is disabled ?) and disable bluetooth when last device is disconnected
• Full network control (to replace nm-applet)
• Bluetooth: deterministically sort items
• Workspaces: show icons of contained windows ? (i.e one small dot per window in the workspace)
• Restructure tryfol as a workspace => custom ipc
  • tryfol-...: crates for modules in backend/* that need to be shared between other crates
  • tryfol-bar: the bar itself
  • tryfol-daemon
    • SNI watcher
    • Bluetooth notifications
    • Auto-inhibit idle when media is playing (see wayland-pipewire-idle-inhibit, which is what I currently use)
    • Sound + notifications for plugging/unplugging the power cable
    • Battery notifications
    • Playerctl replacement (so the "current player" is consistent across keybinds and the bar)
• Show USB devices battery if available (logitech mouse)
• Use a consistent method of displaying errors (either all with Display or all with Debug)
• Network: add ping with router and with internet
• Network: if ping with the routeur exceed a thresold, disconnect and reconnect (in Daemon)
• Cpu: make orange when 1 core is at 100%

Other known issues

• The Bluetooth module frequently triggers panics, though these are caught by GTK. This should be resolved after the module is refactored.
• Errors from the mpris module due to players disappearing. Those are not severe in any way, but I might refactor the mpris module to fix them at some point.
