Planar

River Window Manager based on tinyrwm implemented in Lua.

Dependencies

System dependencies:

• lua 5.4
• luarocks
• libwayland
• libxkbcommon

The lua-ecosystem dependencies should be handled by luarocks.

Building

To fetch lua dependencies, build, and install to ~/.luarocks/bin, run:

eval $(luarocks --path bin)
luarocks --local make

Running

Make sure libxkbcommon.so and libwayland-client.so are present in LD_LIBRARY_PATH (and river and foot in your PATH). You should be able to run river with the installed Lua planar with

river -c ~/.luarocks/bin/planar
