The awful.placement.no_overlap function always looked at the currently
visible clients when placing a new client. This produced a confusing
result when using awful.rules or the sn_rules argument of awful.spawn to
place the client on an unselected tag (the client was placed as if it
would be placed on a currently selected tag; if multiple clients were
placed on the same unselected tag, in many cases they were placed at the
same position, overlapping each other).
Make awful.placement.no_overlap check tags of the placed client and
handle the case of placement on an unselected tag in a more useful way:
- If the client is sticky or at least one of the client tags is
selected, keep the previous behavior: avoid overlap with all other
floating clients which are currently visible, and use the currently
active layout to determine the floating status.
An explicit check based on `c:tags()` is made instead of using
`c:isvisible()`, so that the previous behavior is kept even if the
client is hidden or minimized for some reason.
- If all client tags are unselected, avoid overlap with all other
floating clients which either are sticky or share at least one tag
with the placed client, and use the layout of the first tag of the
placed client to determine the floating status.

A call to cairo_close_path() adds a straight line to the beginning of
the current sub-path. This is used in some of the shapes to, well, close
the shapes.
Sub-paths can be created explicitly via cairo_new_sub_path(), but also
implicitly via cairo_move_to(). When a new sub-path is started, there is
no current point on the path. This means that e.g. cairo_line_to() is in
this start equivalent to cairo_move_to() (= no line is created) and that
cairo_curve_to() first does a cairo_move_to() to the beginning of the
curve. Similarly, cairo_arc() and cairo_arc_negative() first do a
line_to() to the beginning of the arc, and this line_to() can be
implicitly turned into a curve_to().
The problem with the code in gears.shape is that parts of the code
(implicitly) assume that there is not yet any path when the shape
function is called. If this assumption is broken, the call to
close_path() could go to the wrong point, because the path did not start
at the expected position.
Most of the functions in gears.shape already implicitly start a new
sub-path via a call to cairo_move_to(). Those that do not (necessarily)
begin with a call to cairo_move_to() are handled in this commit: They
get an explicit call to cairo_new_sub_path().
This change fixes the issue reported at
https://github.com/awesomeWM/awesome/pull/2804, because the shapes will
no longer be influenced by the pre-existing path. The move_to() that was
left around and caused that issue turns into a degenerate part (it only
has a move_to(), so nothing can be drawn) and is then discarded by
cairo.

Cairo's save/restore methods handle all properties except for the
current path. The path is just left as-is.
A widget's draw method could create some path without consuming it. This
path would then interfere with random things later which did not expect
a path to already exist.
This commits adds calls to cairo_new_path() in the relevant positions to
clean things up.
This not only applies to a widget's draw method, but also
{before,after}_draw_{child,children}. However, these methods could (for
whatever reason) create paths that are to be consumed in one of the
other methods. To keep this working, the path is only cleared after all
of these methods ran.
I do not expect this commit to break anything, because a widget cannot
really assume much about what widget is drawn after it. Especially so,
because partial redraws could mean that some later widget is skipped and
not redrawn.
This should fix the issue reported at
https://github.com/awesomeWM/awesome/pull/2804.

This function checks if a given cairo context has an empty clip. It was
written with the assumption that cairo_clip_extents() produces the x, y,
width, height of the clip extents. However, that function actually
produces x1, y1, x2, y2, where (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) are the corners of
the rectangles.
Due to the way the function is written, it will return non-zero numbers
when there is a translation (cr:translate()). Thus, this function worked
basically never.
Fix this by checking if both points have the same X- or Y-coordinate.

Also document the `test` property as deprecated. It exists because the
older API (`naughty.notify`) had it. It exists on purpose in the
rewrite, it cannot just be removed even if it was never in a release.
This will be shared by the notifications stored in a wibox/wibar and the
ones using a popup. It extends the constraint and margins container
to take care of some boilerplate code. While other widgets have their
own public API, those 2 are private since they are not different enough
to warrent a new public module.
There is some boilerplate code that make using the widget_template
harder when using the raw `wibox.container.background`. This widget
takes care of it.
It is a normal textbox with some extra boilerplate code. Having this
in a separate widget allows the notification to be defined from rc.lua
without a ton of beautiful options and connect_signal.
This way their name doesn't get mangle by the broken magic. It will also
eventually allow to `error()` in the template when the implicit
`@function` is used.
This commit also fixes a large number of issues found while
proof-reading everything.
ldoc has a magical `@classmod` module type which tries to detect
what is a method and what is a static function. It fails about as
often as it works. This commit makes everything explicit to remove
such issues.

- Fill slider bar with a linear pattern based on current value (if `bar_active_color` and `bar_color` are correctly provided)
- Add examples for the apidoc
Even thought `awful.key` handles optional "release" parameter well,
parameters are also get used before passing them. In case (only)
optional "data" is provided, it faulty gets called on a release event.
* Add a request to handle the wallpaper when a screen is added or
resized.
* Add a request for screen decorations such as bars or gizmos when
a screen is added.
Both are also sent when a new handler is connected.
* naughty.legacy: Fix a regression caused by a prior fix.
The title was only set "later" because it was called too early.
The intended result was to prevent the code from being executed when
there is no leagcy popup, but it had this side effect.
* naughty.dbus: Expose the new "private" methods so they can be tested.
Because it now uses Gio instead of capi.dbus, it isn't possible to
just shim the backend anymore.
* shims: Upgrade the dbus shims to also emulate some Gio behavior.
As usual, it is the most basic version that produces the correct
result. It doesn't try to comply to the real API.
Previously, it would use the "real" args passed to the constructor.
It was a bad decision since:
* It doesn't allow the tag/tasklist to add properties internally
* It forces the widget to be created with a constructor rather than
the alternate declarative syntax
* It doesn't allow a tag/tasklist to be part of a widget_template
Technically this is a behavior change, but I doubt anybody will notice
given it is a dark and little documented corner of the API. Chances are
nobody have been using this API for years.
With this helper, it becomes possible to avoid manually setting common
properties such as the client in the tasklist of tag in the taglist when
the children widgets of the template have a set_+property_name.
This decision was taken out of necessity. While adding more style
elements to `awful.widget.common` isn't something I want, there is
little else to do here. The problem is that popup based lists only
have size constraints in one direction. So without a way to limit
the icon size, it will take 9999 pixels.
It makes some code easier to write. It is mostly useful when the margins
are exposed through another widget. In that case it avoids having to
proxy 5 different property or re-invent the wheel there.
Previously, the border "support" was limited to shapes and would not
move the content by the offset of the border. Borders are now better
supported and thus renamed from `shape_border_width` to `border_width.
In the end, shrinking the widget by the border size is too common to
ignore. It should have been the default all along, just like the clip.
Instead of having the default template hardcoded as code, this turns the
template into a descriptive version. This makes it easier to come up
with own templates: Just copy the default template and make a slight
change to it.
No functional changes are intended, but I cannot rule out that I did no
mistakes.

* Fixed input_passthrough property not being set
In the table of properties supplied to the `wibox` function, you couldn't set the `input_passthrough` property. You could only set it after the wibox was created like this: `my_shlick_wibox.input_passthrough = true`. This commit fixes that and now you can set it in both ways.
When you call `reset_timeout` on a notification with 0 timeout and thus no timer, a nil field error occures.
(can be tested with `awesome-client 'require"naughty".notification{message="TEST",timeout=0}:reset_timeout()'`)
Everywhere else in similar places (even at the beginning of the `reset_timeout`) the `self.timer` field is checked so i guess it was just forgotten there.
There is not much good reason why this should be required and making it
optional is almost trivial, as this patch shows.

The current API is non-compliant with the 1.0 spec and cannot represent

Plus to support the keyboard navigation use case, the notification
action need to be able to get some sort of focus state. Having an

In Lua 5.1, xpcall() has exactly two arguments: The function to call and

for Lua 5.1 here.
This commit switches gears.protected_call to actually test for this

The current `awful.widget.layoutlist` is a fork of the so far uncommitted `naughty.widget.actionlist`. It was created because some of the support code for the new `naughty` implementation needed "easier to merge" usage examples. The `layoutlist` was chosen because it was both a low hanging fruit and genuinely useful.
cairo_get_source() is not bound correctly, leading to use-after-free
bugs. Cairo catches this and crashes.
Work around this by preserving the current source in a different way.
Instead of using cairo_get_source() and later cairo_set_source(), this
commit wraps everything that changes the current source between
cairo_save() and cairo_restore(). Thus, cairo saves the current source
for us without us having to grab an explicit reference.

Previously, the background container "just" used the shape and drew a
line around it. This means that half the line will be inside of the
shape and half of it will be outside. Thus, this hides the actual shape
that is used.
This commit changes that so that the line is added outside of the shape.
It does this via some tricks:
- In :before_draw_children(), :push_group() is used to redirect drawing
of the child widget to a temporary surface.
- In :after_draw_children(), the border is added to this group.
+ For this, another temporary surface is created. It will be used as a
mask.
+ The inside of the shape on this mask is cleared, everything else is
filled. Thus, the mask now contains everything "not content".
+ Everything inside the mask is filled with the background color.
- Also in :after_draw_children(), the group is drawn to the actual
target surface.
+ Again, this needs a mask.
+ This time, we draw the shape to the mask with twice the border width.
Thus, half of this line will be outside of the shape.
+ Then, the shape itself is also filled so that the mask contains the
shape and the border.
+ This mask is then used to copy the right parts of the temporary
surface were the child widget and border was drawn to the actual
target surface that will be visible on screen.
This approach has some upsides. Because we no longer have "half the
border" above content, colors with some transparency work fine for the
border. Also, this should avoid issues with anti-aliasing, because e.g.
the border is not just drawn with the border width, but also further out
to everything else so that the background cannot "bleed through".

It is not possible to distribute 100px to three widgets equally. The
current version of wibox.layout.flex tries to do that anyway, by giving
each widget 33px and leaving one pixel outside of any widget. Thus, if
the widgets e.g. have a common background, this leads to a one pixel gap
in the background.
This patch changes the flex layout so that the extra pixel is assigned
to some widget instead. It does so by basically keeping a sum of
space_per_item for the widgets that was assigned so far. This sum is
rounded and when this leads to rounding, the corresponding child widget
gets an extra pixel.
More precisely, this tracks a pos as before. Widgets get their position
still assigned based on rounding pos. However, this now also remembers
this rounded position for the next iteration of the loop. This allows to
assign the size of widgets based on the difference between the current
and last rounded position.

This commit adds a way to leverage the xproperty and startup_id APIs
to persist an execution token across restarts. It allows to use
`awful.rules` on clients that were executed by a previous Awesome
instance.
The main limitations of these methods is the lack of entropy used to
build the token. If the command is the same in multiple
`awful.spawn.once`, then it will not work as expected. To mitigate this
issue, the system try to concatenate the `awful.rules` table after the
command and hash the resulting string. Given rules are a table, it can
have loops and/or issues with keys ordering. The hash function sort and
limite recursion to prevent a stack overflow. Another issue is the
unreliability of startup notifications.
`pairs` order isn't defined and `{...}` will always be ordered.
There is no reason to have random behavior where it can be
predicted at no additional cost.
The awful.placement.no_offscreen function did not work properly when
composed with other placement functions; in particular, the default
configuration (awful.placement.no_overlap+awful.placement.no_offscreen)
was broken. The compose function sets args.pretend=true and puts the
result of the previous placement function into args.override_geometry
before calling the next placement function, but no_offscreen did not use
args.override_geometry, therefore the result of the previous placement
function was discarded.
All other placement functions use `geometry_common(c, args)` to get the
current client geometry; `area_common(c)` should be used only when
getting geometry of other clients.
This change also fixes the problem with margin handling (adding margins
should not affect the window size, only the window position should
change); the test output which was adjusted in commit 0275d3537d
is adjusted again to account for this change.

The awful.placement.no_overlap function was adding the window border
width to the client width and height (this is performed in
area_common(), which is called by geometry_common()), but did not
reverse this operation by calling remove_border() before returning the
final geometry; because of this, using no_overlap resulted in increasing
the window width and height by 2*border_width.
The bug was probably introduced in commit ebcc19844e (before
that commit no_overlap changed the window position directly instead of
relying on the new placement infrastructure), but was not noticed
because of other problems (e.g., in the default configuration the result
of no_overlap was overridden by the buggy no_offscreen).

When an icon is sent over dbus, we turn this into a cairo ImageSurface.
This is done by turning the actual icon data into a string and using
cairo.ImageSurface.create_for_data() to create a surface for this data.
However, this function only creates an ImageSurface that refers to this
data. It does not copy the data. Thus, when the Lua GC later frees the
string, we have a cairo surface that refers to already-freed data.
Fix this by duplicating the cairo surface, which makes cairo create a
copy of the data. Then, we finish the original surface. While doing
this, the string is kept alive in a local variable.

The old keygrabber API wasn't doing what the users want from a

This commit add a default grabber function that implements the
keybinding API already used by `awful.key` and `awful.prompt`.
It also add syntax candy left and right to make the module "feel"
like a native CAPI object.
Nothing is perfect and some parts, like adding root keybindings, are not
vevy pleasing. However it fulfill its goal when it comes to make
previously non-trivial use case very easy to implement and deploy.
This code was attached to mouse::enter in `rc.lua` instead of being part
of the unified request::activate architecture.
There is currently no way to detach this focus filter because it is
generally correct.
There is currently no centralized way to manage active keybindings so
the description data case be used to fill part of that role until an
official API is added.
Layouts work with the client's geometry in "space on screen that is
assigned to this client". This means that the geometry should include
decoration (titlebar and borders) and useless gaps.
Everything else (especially the C code) works with client's geometry in
"space that the client can draw on". This means that the titlebar,
borders and the useless gaps are not included into this size.
Thus, when applying size hints, the tile layout has to convert between
these two representations. Otherwise, size hints are applied incorrectly
and to a wrong geometry.

For "stuff around screen's 'removed' signal", it might make sense to
temporarily set a tags screen to nil. The idea is that it will only
later be assigned to a new screen, not immediately.
However, currently a tag with screen nil causes quite some problems in
the set_screen() function. This commit works around this with a generous
amount of "wrap this in if".

Before this commit, there was a conflict between the spawn and
awful.rules rules.
Also, modules such as Tryannical monkey-patched this function to
add their own rules to the mix. This commit introduce a proper
API to add handlers.
The order is crutial for this to work, so a dependency system is
also added.
Fix#1482
* Add support for resizing notification icon with respect to aspect
Previously, if an icon was not exactly square, an icon size set in configuration
would cause the notification to pad the icon with empty space so dimensions are
equal.
Now behaviour is different: the bigger dimension of the icon is scaled to fit
the icon_size value, while smaller is scaled same amount to preserve aspect.
Also, ImageSurface is now not created as fixed size square, but it's dimensions
are computed in similar way.
* Round the computed dimensions of ImageSurface
Even one pixel off is still off.
This now does directly what previously awesome.load_image() did. Also,
this commit removes the only caller of awesome.load_image(), so that
function could (in theory) be removed now.

The code here has things like "if cache.bgb" which suggests that "bgb"
(great name, by the way) is supposed to be optional. However,
31b8623ff6 made this thing definitely not optional by making it
*the* widget that is displayed. That feels wrong.
Also, after the above commit, the ".primary" entry is no longer used,
which is at least surprising for something which is called "primary".
None of this is explicitly documented (I didn't find anything when
looking for "primary" in common.lua nor tasklist.lua; I know that there
are examples for using this, but still that doesn't say how this is
supposed to work), so I'm not quite sure how this was intended to work.
Instead, I am just proposing this commit as a better fix with the above
rational and see what feedback I get...

This commit allow user defined delegates to be used as list elements.
This put an end to the endless attempt to cram more features into this
code.
A widget template (non-instantiated) is passed to the arguments and
is created by the common code. It also supports "roles" where some
user defined widgets can replace the old textbox or imagebox.
The old function didn't scale at all. As no replacements are going
to be merged anytime soon, start to make it meta-extensible.
This is the first step to be able to let the widget be extended
directly from rc.lua without adding yet more silly parameters.
It never scaled and has reached the point of no return a very long
time ago.
My first ever contribution to Awesome was to attempt to fix this,
but the solution was a bad hack. The radical module later solved
this by delegating the style, layout, theme, item layout and item
style to various "visitor" objects. While this is superior to this
commit, it was also a very large and complicated codebase. After
5 years, it is now obvious it will never be merged "whole".
Do it now since the future awful.popup and notification widget
also uses it.
The `load_ldoc.cmake` changes allow to include `.ldoc` blocks in
existing ldoc comments. Previously, it added some extra newlines
and an autogenerated comments saying the content below was imported.
The problem is that this prevented the system to be used for shared
function arguments.
This commit also renames the `wibar` argument table from `arg` to
`args` as the name has to be the same in the `wibox` and `wibar`
constructor for this to work.
The ratio, fixed and flex layout can now display a widget between
each layout elements.
The align layout was left out because it doesn't support spacing
As long as Awesome provides APIs that uses pixels are points, this
cannot be enabled by default.
For example, a wibar size defined in pixels may be too small to
render the text once a dense display is connected.
If g_date_time_format() fails, it returns a NULL pointer. This change
makes the textclock detect this and print a warning. This warning
contains 'g_date_time_format()' so that people can ask their favorite
search engine for the supported formats of this function. This warning
also contains the actual format string so that all the information is
available in one place and possible bug reports hopefully include the
format string.
