#!/bin/sh # # Address several issues with DBus activation and systemd user sessions # # 1. DBus-activated and systemd services do not share the environment with user # login session. In order to make the applications that have GUI or interact # with the compositor work as a systemd user service, certain variables must # be propagated to the systemd and dbus. # Possible (but not exhaustive) list of variables: # - DISPLAY - for X11 applications that are started as user session services # - WAYLAND_DISPLAY - similarly, this is needed for wayland-native services # - I3SOCK/SWAYSOCK - allow services to talk with sway using i3 IPC protocol # # 2. `xdg-desktop-portal` requires XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP to be set in order to # select the right implementation for screenshot and screencast portals. # With all the numerous ways to start sway, it's not possible to rely on the # right value of the XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP variable within the login session, # therefore the script will ensure that it is always set to `sway`. # # 3. GUI applications started as a systemd service (or via xdg-autostart-generator) # may rely on the XDG_SESSION_TYPE variable to select the backend. # Ensure that it is always set to `wayland`. # # 4. The common way to autostart a systemd service along with the desktop # environment is to add it to a `graphical-session.target`. However, systemd # forbids starting the graphical session target directly and encourages use # of an environment-specific target units. Therefore, the integration # package here provides and uses `sway-session.target` which would bind to # the `graphical-session.target`. # # 5. Stop the target and unset the variables when the compositor exits. # # References: # - https://github.com/swaywm/sway/wiki#gtk-applications-take-20-seconds-to-start # - https://github.com/emersion/xdg-desktop-portal-wlr/wiki/systemd-user-services,-pam,-and-environment-variables # - https://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/systemd.special.html#graphical-session.target # - https://systemd.io/DESKTOP_ENVIRONMENTS/ # export XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP=sway export XDG_SESSION_DESKTOP="${XDG_SESSION_DESKTOP:-sway}" export XDG_SESSION_TYPE=wayland VARIABLES="DESKTOP_SESSION XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP XDG_SESSION_DESKTOP XDG_SESSION_TYPE" VARIABLES="${VARIABLES} DISPLAY I3SOCK SWAYSOCK WAYLAND_DISPLAY" VARIABLES="${VARIABLES} XCURSOR_THEME XCURSOR_SIZE" SESSION_TARGET="sway-session.target" SESSION_SHUTDOWN_TARGET="sway-session-shutdown.target" WITH_CLEANUP=1 print_usage() { cat <&2 print_usage exit 1 ;; *) break ;; esac shift done # Check if another Sway session is already active. # # Ignores all other kinds of parallel or nested sessions # (Sway on Gnome/KDE/X11/etc.), as the only way to detect these is to check # for (WAYLAND_)?DISPLAY and that is know to be broken on Arch. if systemctl --user -q is-active "$SESSION_TARGET"; then echo "Another session found; refusing to overwrite the variables" exit 1 fi # DBus activation environment is independent from systemd.
