kawa: plans for configuration

Open DeedleFake opened this issue 3 years ago • 0 comments

Currently, what little configuration there is for kawa happens entirely via command line flags. Ideally, a config system would work similarly to how wmii's works in that it exposes a 9P server that gives access to configuration in real time. That filesystem would then be synchronized to an actual config file or two somewhere, probably under $XDG_CONFIG_DIR/kawa, for persistence and editing of the config while the compositor isn't running.

Configuration should allow for several things at a minimum:

  • [ ] Theming and coloring of UI elements.
  • [ ] Background image configuration.
  • [ ] Output layout configuration.
