* Add a better descrition for the `imagebox` role in the wiboxes system ;
* Improve image + code render and integration into the descrition ;
* Add a second code exemple to show both coding style (imperative and declarative).
I think the user can now have a better overview of what's a `wibox.widget.imagebox` and how to use it.
Change how wibox are drawn to build a more flexible function reusable in the context of clients.
Add `clients` option to the template. This new option needs an associative table `{ ['label'] = client }` to work. Where label will be a text rendered on the middle of the client area.
Add a new example: `texts/examples/screen/tiled_clients.lua`.
Rulers insertion order impact the result of the bubble sort algorithm.
By inverting the order, we can make the output image looking more natural.
Awesome's screen properties can be seen like this:
* The screen has a geometry (its size) ;
* Inside there is the workarea ;
* Inside there is the tiling_area.
It seems better to draw rulers in this order.
Another step in moving these APIs toward the common object oriented and
declarative paradigms used by other APIs.
This commit introduces the `awful.keyboard` module. It currenly only
exists as a placeholder for the first few append/remove function, but
will grow in scope in another pull request to expose the currently
private modifier APIs and to provide keybindings collision detection
and replace some of `awful.hotkey_popup` business logic.
The `keygrabber` tests which uses root keybindings are disabled for
now to keep the commit size small. This is necessary since the shims
will need many iterations of changes before this work again with the
new syntax.
Try both legacy and standardized code paths. Also try invalid mixes of
them in case some modules abuse of rc.lua and ingest the wrong format
by accident.
There is no better place to put it and need to always be required
for backward compatibility. Given Awesome no longer works properly
without `awful`, I put the code there.
This isn't very nice and pulls all sort of almost useless code into
the shims, making them less atomic. However the next few commits
will start another round of API standardization and the compatibility
layer wont be optional anymore.
This template allows to display a sequence of events for the clients,
tags and screens. Currently, it is hard to display images where the
state of an object is more complex than "here how it was before" and
"here how it is now". With this template, it is possible to have a
timeline of events from the initial states to the final states.
Now, as the line count shows, this isn't small. It is in fact an
enormous template. Worst still, this commit is the first *half* of
it. The second half adds the ability to `print()`, display
inline code and support mouse and keyboard events. The code also isn't
world class. Maintaining this template might be non-trivial in the
long run. I am fully aware of those issues. On the other hand, there
is ~100 places where this will be used once the entire
"new rule library" project is completed. This will bring the ~1.2k
line of code to ~12 lines per consumer. From that point of view,
it makes a lot more sense to merge this given how useful it is
at explaining changes within the "core objects".
It is also important to keep in mind that there is currently very
little or no documentation (beside the mandatory one-liner summary)
for these concepts. Those are the most important aspects of AwesomeWM
API and they are the least documented. This is just wrong.
Both commit 44e6b2d24e and 4eda67ce54 added the same function to this
file (and by the commit message, the later was intended to do so, while
the former has an unrelated commit message (but does not contain any
other changes)).

In case of error, well, make an error, but update the content anyway.
This will be enough for the CI but makes development less painful.
Also update the cmake targets to re-generate them more often.
Previously it was possible to manipulate deleted screens and that
made debugging harder down the line. By catching this early, it
wont be as nightmarish.
The way background are rendered changed to accomodate issues regarding
cliping and border. However this broke the documentation examples.
This commit fixes this in the least hacky way I found.
Fixes#2727
This commit also add some "magic" comments to existing tests so they
render correctly. Note that some older commits predates these "magic"
comments, which is why they are not there.
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.
- 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
* 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.
The tests for naughty are currently broken, because naughty.dbus now
uses Gio for interacting with DBus, but the tests still try to use
awesome's dbus object. Turn the resulting weird error into something a
lot less cryptic.

This will avoid some copy/paste in future tests.
The commit also fixes a typo and a missing --DOC_NO_DASH which breaks
rendering with one of the markdown implementation.
Once the signals get propagated, it means "manage" will call code before
the metatable is set. If this happens and it sets some properties, they
will perpetually bypass the `awful.client.object` handler.
This adds require("_date") to some example tests that use the current
date via os.date. This allows reproducibility by replacing os.date()
with a function that uses a static date from $SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH. See
commit 9d7eaf0 for more details.

It also add some properties such as `border_width`, `border_color`
and `preferred_alignments`.
It also fix a documentation bug where the `margin_topleft` was called
`margins_topleft`. To conform to the documentation, both are now valid
but one should be removed the next time the API changes.
Fixes#1978
In the earlier revision of the keygrabber PR, there was a `release_key`
and it was suggested to rename it `stop_key`. However its sibling
`release_event` wasn't, so it is now confusing.
The commit adds a mild deprecation codepath to avoid breaking configs
based on git-master. However it isn't a "long term" deprecation notice
and the code can probably be removed in 5.0 without further delay.
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.

Commit fec8d6aa8f fixes awful.placement.no_offscreen to behave
like other placement functions. This means that the margins=40 argument
that this test used and that was previously was just ignored, now
started working. Thus, there are now 40 pixels less on each side of the
client in this test.

STRICT_TESTS was introduced in commit c22b93963. Some people have setups
where e.g. fontconfig produces warnings. These warnings made the tests
under tests/examples/ fail. The above commit changes things so that
these warnings are ignored by default, unless STRICT_TESTS is enabled.
Commit b5ca8bf937 broke this by making example test failures fatal
again.
Fix this by appending "|| true" to the command to run in case strict
tests are disabled. Thus, all failures from tests/examples/runner.sh get
ignored.

Instead of running the example tests directly from CMake and checking
the results via CMake, the tests are now run through a shell script.
So far, there are too many variables involved for me to easily figure
out how to run this shell script in the building phase instead of the
configuring phase, but at least this commit moves the "actual running"
out of CMake, bringing us a step closer to that goal.

This commit adds a .txt file next to each example test that generates a
text output. This text file contains the expected output and it is an
error if the actual output does not match the expected output. This
means that we no longer have to run the example tests before we can
expand all the @foo@ expressions that occur.
While touching this, I also fixed some typos and unexpected newlines in
the tests' output.

Since last year luacheck change, trailing spaces are no longer
allowed. This caused all documentaiton examples that used them
as a way to mark newlines to look plain wrong.
This commit add an explicit flag to make longer examples more
readable.
* Add a FOLLOW_SYMLINKS so Awesome 3rd party module can share the
awesome test infrastructure by adding themselves as symlinks in
`lib/`, `tests/` and `tests/examples` and otherwise use AwesomeWM
Travis config.
* Add an option to add examples to the C documentation. Previously only
Lua functions could be documented using this framework.
This allows to figure out if a test will generate an image without
having to run it. The long term plan for this is to run the tests during
compiling ("make") and not during configuring ("cmake"). Since the list
of files to e.g. install needs to be known during configuring, this
commit is a necessary step in that direction.

No currently existing test produces a PNG image, so why do we even check
for such an output file?
I did 'rm -rf build && make -j9 && cp -r build /tmp', then applied this
patch, and then did another 'rm -rf build && make -j9'. According to
diff, the resulting directories are basically the same (except for lots
of timestamps and some non-determinism in CMake).

LUA_COV_RUNNER is used with `add_custom_command` for the command to
generate the images, and AWESOME_THEMES_PATH should be set there.
Since LUA_COV_RUNNER is used also with `execute_process` there is no
need for `set(ENV …)` anymore.
During build svg images of the calendar widget are generated, which
differ based on the current date.
By honouring the environment variable SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH, which is
set by distributions during build, a deterministic date can be used
at build time while keeping the normal behaviour during runtime.
