Five plugins each owned their own colors.toml watcher with subtly
different parsers, plus two ad-hoc per-theme override files
(notifications.json, image-picker-colors.json). This collapses all of
that into one source of truth: Commons/Color.qml watches colors.toml +
shell.toml and exposes Color.bar.*, Color.popups.*, Color.notifications.*,
Color.menu.*, Color.imagePicker.* for every surface to bind to.
shell.toml is generated by the existing template pipeline from
default/themed/shell.toml.tpl. Themes can ship their own shell.toml to
override individual keys; everything missing falls back to the
foundational palette via root.pick(). Settings panel is intentionally
not themable beyond the foundational tokens.
last-horizon and solitude ship a minimal shell.toml to preserve their
historical 'notification border matches Hyprland active border'
behavior, which previously came from parsing the theme's hyprland.conf
(now removed).
Quickshell's UPowerDevice.percentage is a 0.0-1.0 real (energy /
energyCapacity), not 0-100. The bar was treating it as 0-100, so a 99%
charge picked the lowest icon, the tooltip read "1%", and the
low-battery active state was always true.
Replace the inline detail flyout with a two-column hero: location chip
and large temperature on the left, big condition icon on the right.
Stats (Feels / Wind / Humidity) move below as caps-labeled columns,
separated from the forecast by a thin divider. Forecast cells now lead
with the day icon and put the day name above hi/lo temps.
Drop the Refresh and wttr.in pill buttons; a Timer refreshes the
forecast every refreshMinutes (default 15). The interval is exposed
through the Settings panel — Bar -> Weather has a gear that opens a
SpinBox-backed form, persisted as "settings": { "refreshMinutes": N }
in shell.json.
Replace the hover-driven detail flyout with a click-toggled popup that
includes a Noctalia-style row of upcoming days. Switching the wttr.in
fetch to the j1 JSON gives us structured current conditions plus a
3-day forecast; each day's representative icon comes from the hourly
entry nearest noon, mapped through the same code → glyph table as the
bar pill.
Text.implicitWidth/Height can be fractional. Passing those values
straight to the PopupWindow rounded the Wayland surface down, clipping
the 1px right/bottom border of the bubble.
The old bash bin short-circuited with close_visible_quickshell_menu at
the top of open_quickshell_menu, so pressing any menu keybind while the
menu was open just closed it. The IPC path I introduced summoned every
time, so keyboard shortcuts couldn't dismiss \u2014 only outside clicks did
(which is why the bar icon appeared to toggle: clicking it while the
menu was open hit the menu's outer-click MouseArea, not the icon).
Add a menu.toggle IPC method:
- if root.opened: cancel() and return "closed"
- otherwise: behaves exactly like summon
Switch every Hyprland binding and the two bar-icon click handlers
(omarchy logo, battery right-click \u2192 power menu) to toggle. summon stays
as the always-open primitive for callers that want explicit summon
semantics (rare \u2014 right now nothing internal uses it).
The shell now owns the menu — both data and dispatch. The 821-line bash
bin was carrying the open path (cold spawn + jq pipeline + tempfile dance
+ IPC + poll) and a grab-bag of helpers that only existed inside it. Both
go away in this commit.
New bins for the few composite helpers that were genuinely worth keeping:
- omarchy-install-app NAME PKG
- omarchy-install-and-launch NAME PKG DESKTOP_ID
- omarchy-install-font LABEL PKG FAMILY
- omarchy-launch-config-editor PATH
- omarchy-reminder-set-interactive
- omarchy-capture-screenrecording-with-webcam
Sweep through default/omarchy/omarchy-menu.jsonc rewrites:
- present_terminal X -> omarchy-launch-floating-terminal-with-presentation X
- install_terminal X -> omarchy-launch-floating-terminal-with-presentation 'omarchy-install-terminal X'
- install / install_and_launch / install_font / open_in_editor -> new bins above
- terminal X -> xdg-terminal-exec --app-id=org.omarchy.terminal X
- default_browser_is X -> [[ "$(omarchy-default-browser)" == "X" ]]
- default_terminal_is X / default_editor_is X / haptic_touchpad_is X same shape
- $(hypr_config_file X) -> ~/.config/hypr/X.lua
- show_custom_reminder_input -> omarchy-reminder-set-interactive
- screenrecord_with_webcam -> omarchy-capture-screenrecording-with-webcam
- stop_active_screenrecording -> omarchy-capture-screenrecording --stop-recording
Hyprland bindings switch from `omarchy-menu X` to
`omarchy-shell-ipc menu summon X` (the keybind hot path now skips bash
entirely). The Bar.qml omarchy widget and the battery right-click do the
same. ALT+PRINT becomes a one-liner: stop the recording if one is going,
otherwise summon the screenrecord submenu.
Measured: keybind-to-visible is ~30ms (was ~235ms). The shell's plugin
keepLoaded:true stops being theoretical \u2014 the menu data lives in memory
across opens, and the only work between keypress and paint is the IPC
roundtrip and the layer-shell window mount.
omarchy-font-set already updates ~/.config/fontconfig/fonts.conf, which
is what fc-match, Qt, and every other XDG app reads from. Storing the
same family in shell.json gives the same value two homes that can drift
apart, and stops the bar from picking up font changes without a shell
restart.
- omarchy-font-set stops writing bar.fontFamily to shell.json and stops
poking ~/.config/waybar/style.css. fontconfig + terminals + hyprlock
+ swayosd are still updated as before.
- omarchy-font-current reads fc-match monospace -f '%{family}' and
takes the first comma-separated entry; the old jq-on-shell.json
path is gone.
- Bar / SettingsPanel / NDropdown.qml default fontFamily to
"monospace" and stop reading config.fontFamily. Qt resolves the
family through fontconfig at paint time, so omarchy-font-set updates
the bar live with no reload.
- shell-defaults.json drops bar.fontFamily.
User-visible effect: pick a Nerd Font, the bar follows it. Pick a font
without glyphs and you get tofu — same failure mode the terminals and
hyprlock already had.
