knausj_talon's Introduction

fidgetingbits' Talon Repo

Please read the WARNING section before you use this repo, as using some of the stuff I have may break your talon experience as I only test this repo on my own environment, and you should avoid reporting these problems to aegis or talon, without first validating that a repo like knausj_talon works properly first.

This repo is meant to be used on Linux and is only tested on Arch Linux. It requires some non-standard python libraries in the talon virtual environment.

I use the beta version of Talon so may result in errors related to functionality if you aren't using it. I recommend paying for beta on patreon if you can.

In general I try to keep merging the core features from knausj_talon repo, but sometimes it might be months behind.

Interesting features

Following in the steps of Andreas Arvidsson the following is a list of interesting stuff in is repo that you might want take.

  1. vim The main feature I added that most people come to this repo for is vim support. See apps/vim/ for more details.

Other stuff

  1. run_talon.sh A script I use to run talon that auto-restarts on stalls.
  2. talon-python-command-server - Talon file-based RPC server

WARNING

I only test this repository on my own system. Although other people are using it, they may have similar environments to me. It's very possible that you will run into problems using this repository that aren't actually problems with talon, in which case you should investigate using knausj_talon first, before reporting the problems on slack to ease the support load on others.

Dependencies

My working environment is largely centered around:

  • arch linux
  • i3-gaps
  • dunst
  • rofi
  • kitty
  • neovim
  • firefox
  • Tobii 5

It is possible I tweak things that end up only working on this environment, and break on either Linux systems. That said, if you run into a problem using my repo I'm more than happy to fix it to make it more generic, I just don't do this type of proactive testing on my own due to lack of time.

Monkey Patching

There are a few features that I don't like the way they work on i3, so I choose to monkey patch them. These patches may break on your system, in you need to test a different repo first if you run into problems, before assuming its a talon problem.

Currently the list of monkey patches are:

Hardware

Recommendations

Although not Talon specific, I recommend using howdy if you are using Linux. It makes things like logging in and sudo authentication a lot more seamless.

Pull requests

Even though I use this repo mostly for personal stuff, I'm happy to take pull requests from people that find issues specifically in my changes that don't directly applied to knausj_talon.
