windowrule = workspace name:web, class:^(vivaldi|firefox)$
windowrule = workspace 1, class:^(kitty)$, title:^(dev)$
Pairs with the workspace lines from the previous commit: those make a
named workspace exist, this sends an application to it. `windowrulev2` is
accepted as the same key, since that is the spelling configs in the wild
are written with.
Hyprland's windowrule has around forty actions. One of them is
implemented, because one of them has a COSMIC counterpart, and the other
thirty-nine fail with an explanation rather than parsing into nothing. A
rule that looks right and silently does not fire is the worst outcome
available -- the window opens in the wrong place and there is nothing to
read that says why. So `float` points at the tiling exceptions in
cosmic-settings, which is where floating actually lives; the rest say that
only `workspace` exists here. Matchers that ask about window state --
floating:, fullscreen:, onworkspace: -- say that matching happens once, as
the window opens, so only what the window arrives with can be tested.
Three things the parser has to get right
`+1` is not workspace 1. u32::from_str accepts a leading sign, so
Hyprland's relative target would have parsed as an absolute one and sent
the window somewhere the rule never asked for. The digits are checked
before parsing rather than the result checked after.
`silent` is stripped from the end, not parsed as one word among several,
because a workspace name may contain spaces. `workspace = 2, name:web and
mail` is a legal declaration, so `workspace name:web and mail` has to be a
legal rule.
A rule with neither class nor title is refused. Both are regular
expressions and an empty one matches everything, so the rule that looks
like it does nothing would in fact send the entire session to one
workspace.
Order is the semantics
Rules are emitted in the order they were written and not deduplicated: two
rules can differ only in their title and both be wanted, and the
compositor takes the first that matches, so a file that reads top to
bottom has to be written top to bottom.
The regex dependency
Expressions are compiled here so a broken one is a diagnostic against the
line that wrote it, with the crate's own message pointing at the offending
character, rather than a warning in the compositor log nobody reads.
Pinned to the same major cosmic-comp matches with, so what compiles here
compiles there. Cargo.lock carries the five new entries at the versions
cosmic-comp already resolved.
Verified
24 unit tests in the new module and 6 in resolve, covering the sign trap,
the name with spaces, both spellings of the key, the order of the emitted
list, variable expansion, and that each refused action and matcher carries
its explanation. Not verified here: nothing is compiled on this machine.
