# Warning:
|
|
**if you install EndeavourOS-i3 aside with a full DE (XFCE4, GNOME, Plasma e.t.c.)**
|
|
|
|
**you need to comment dex starter from ~/.config/i3/config file !!!**
|
|
|
|
# Main shortcuts:
|
|
[mod] key is set to the winkey (or should i call it linkey?)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
# default i3-wm keycodes:
|
|
https://i3wm.org/docs/userguide.html#_default_keybindings
|
|
|
|
# Display setup with arandr
|
|
|
|
* open arandr and setup display/s as you need.
|
|
* save the setup from arandr menu or button exactly with filename `monitor`.
|
|
---> on i3 EndeavourOS we have a starter line in the ~/.config/i3/config
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
# start a script to setup displays
|
|
# uncomment the next line, use arandr to setup displays and save the file as monitor:
|
|
exec --no-startup-id ~/.screenlayout/monitor.sh
|
|
```
|
|
this will handle to set display on each login.
|
|
|
|
|
|
# Tiling:
|
|
is set to default for i3wm and can be changed to:
|
|
* stacking:
|
|
Only the focused window in the container is displayed. You get a list of windows at the top of the container.
|
|
|
|
* tabbed:
|
|
so each new window will open fullscreen as a tab, you can change between window-tabs with mouse or shortcut:
|
|
[mod]+**Left** focus left (left arrow key)
|
|
[mod]+**Right** focus right (right arrow key)
|
|
|
|
# i3blocks:
|
|
* pulseaudio (mousewheel volume level, rightclick open pulseaudio control)
|
|
* weather (openweather you need to get city code and apikey first [adding it to ~/.config/i3/scripts/openweather.sh])
|
|
get your api key here: https://openweathermap.org/appid and City code: https://openweathermap.org/find?q= (search your city and take the city code from the url in your browser [7 numbers at the end of the url])
|
|
* tray-icons (showing network-manager and update-icon)
|
|
* logout button (poweroff, logout, suspending, hibernate e.t.c.)
|
|
|
|
# panel bar (i3-blocks):
|
|
|
|
* CONFIG FILE = ~/.config/i3/i3blocks.conf
|
|
# Logout Menu:
|
|
|
|
* CONFIG FILE = ~/.config/i3/scripts/shutdown_menu
|
|
# application menu (rofi):
|
|

# Tutorial to install EndeavourOS-i3 setup from scratch
|
|
**for later installs, if you have installed another DE on initial install from the ISO**
|
|
|
|
1. get the dot files
|
|
2. copy files to the right directories (.config of your user):
|
|
3. copy scripts inside ~/.config/i3/scripts must be executable ! [chmod +x] them please ;)
|
|
4. install needed packages
|
|
|
|
`git clone https://github.com/endeavouros-team/endeavouros-i3wm-setup.git`
|
|
|
|
`cd endeavouros-i3wm-setup`
|
|
|
|
`cp -R .config/* ~/.config/`
|
|
|
|
`chmod -R +x ~/.config/i3/scripts` (make scripts executable)
|
|
|
|
`dbus-launch dconf load / < xed.dconf` (setup xed-editor)
|
|
|
|
If you have the old EndeavourOS default i3-setup installed you need to remove .Xresources file
|
|
(old color profile ot used anymore for rofi menus):
|
|
`rm ~.Xresources`
|
|
|
|
# install needed apps and programms for i3wm:
|
|
|
|
`sudo pacman -S --needed - < packages-repository.txt`
|
|
