+> ⚠️ **BREAKING CHANGE:**
+> We're switching our icon set from Material Symbols to Bootstrap Icons!
+> - Arch Users: if using the AUR version, the font will be installed automatically. If installed manually you will need to install `ttf-bootstrap-icons` from the AUR.
+> - NixOS Users: I've attempted to add the new font to the flake, but it's untested. Feedback would be greatly appreciated!
+> - All Other Users: Please check your package manager for a Bootstrap Icons font. If it's not available, you may need to download it and copy it to `~/.local/share/fonts` or `/usr/share/fonts`.

- return
- }
- // Format the result based on type
- let entry
- if (item.isImage) {
- entry = formatImageEntry(item)
- } else {
- entry = formatTextEntry(item)
- }

- "description": searchTerm ? `No items containing "${query}"` : "Copy something to see it here",
- "icon": "text-x-generic",
- "isImage": false,
- "onActivate": function () {// Do nothing
- }
- })
- }
+If you want to use the `ArchUpdater` widget, you will have to set your `TERMINAL` environment variable.
- //Logger.log("ClipboardPlugin", `Returning ${results.length} results for query: "${query}"`)
- return results
- }
+Example command (you can edit the /etc/environment file manually too):
- // Helper: Format image clipboard entry
- function formatImageEntry(item) {
- const meta = parseImageMeta(item.preview)
+`sudo sed -i '/^TERMINAL=/d' /etc/environment && echo 'TERMINAL=/usr/bin/kitty' | sudo tee -a /etc/environment
+`
- // The launcher's delegate will now be responsible for fetching the image data.
- // This function's role is to provide the necessary metadata for that request.
- return {
- "name": meta ? `Image ${meta.w}×${meta.h}` : "Image",
- "description": meta ? `${meta.fmt} • ${meta.size}` : item.mime || "Image data",
- "icon": "image",
- "isImage": true,
- "imageWidth": meta ? meta.w : 0,
- "imageHeight": meta ? meta.h : 0,
- "clipboardId": item.id,
- "mime": item.mime
- }
- }
+Please do not forget to edit `TERMINAL=/usr/bin/kitty` to match your terminal.
- // Helper: Format text clipboard entry with preview
- function formatTextEntry(item) {
- const preview = (item.preview || "").trim()
- const lines = preview.split('\n').filter(l => l.trim())
+---
- // Use first line as title, limit length
- let title = lines[0] || "Empty text"
- if (title.length > 60) {
- title = title.substring(0, 57) + "..."
- }
+## Quick Start
- // Use second line or character count as description
- let description = ""
- if (lines.length > 1) {
- description = lines[1]
- if (description.length > 80) {
- description = description.substring(0, 77) + "..."
- }
- } else {
- const chars = preview.length
- const words = preview.split(/\s+/).length
- description = `${chars} characters, ${words} word${words !== 1 ? 's' : ''}`
- }
+### Installation
- return {
- "name": title,
- "description": description,
- "icon": "text-x-generic",
- "isImage": false
- }
- }
+#### Arch Linux
- // Helper: Parse image metadata from preview string
- function parseImageMeta(preview) {
- const re = /\[\[\s*binary data\s+([\d\.]+\s*(?:KiB|MiB|GiB|B))\s+(\w+)\s+(\d+)x(\d+)\s*\]\]/i
- const match = (preview || "").match(re)
+
+AUR
- if (!match) {
- return null
- }
+You can install Noctalia from the [AUR](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/noctalia-shell). This method will install the shell system-wide.
- return {
- "size": match[1],
- "fmt": (match[2] || "").toUpperCase(),
- "w": Number(match[3]),
- "h": Number(match[4])
- }
- }
+```bash
+paru -S noctalia-shell
+```
- // Public method to get image data for a clipboard item
- // This can be called by the launcher when rendering
- function getImageForItem(clipboardId) {
- return ClipboardService.getImageData ? ClipboardService.getImageData(clipboardId) : null
- }
+If you want the latest development version directly from the git repository, you can use the `noctalia-shell-git` package:
+
+```bash
+paru -S noctalia-shell-git
+```
+This will always pull the most recent commit from the Noctalia repository. Note that it may be less stable than the release version.
+
+
+
+
+Manual Installation
+
+This method installs the shell to your local user configuration.
+
+Make sure you have Quickshell installed:
+```bash
+paru -S quickshell-git
+```
+
+Download and install Noctalia (latest release):
+```bash
+mkdir -p ~/.config/quickshell/noctalia-shell && curl -sL https://github.com/noctalia-dev/noctalia-shell/releases/latest/download/noctalia-latest.tar.gz | tar -xz --strip-components=1 -C ~/.config/quickshell/noctalia-shell
+```
+
+
+
+#### Nix
+
+
+Nix Installation
+
+You can run Noctalia directly using the `nix run` command:
+```bash
+nix run github:noctalia-dev/noctalia-shell
+```
+
+Alternatively, you can add it to your NixOS configuration or flake:
+
+**Step 1**: Add Quickshell and Noctalia flakes to your `flake.nix`:
+```nix
+{
+ description = "Example Nix flake with Noctalia + Quickshell";
+
+ inputs = {
+ nixpkgs.url = "github:nixos/nixpkgs/nixos-unstable";
+
+ noctalia = {
+ url = "github:noctalia-dev/noctalia-shell";
+ inputs.nixpkgs.follows = "nixpkgs";
+ };
+
+ quickshell = {
+ url = "github:outfoxxed/quickshell";
+ inputs.nixpkgs.follows = "nixpkgs";
+ inputs.quickshell.follows = "quickshell"
+ };
+ };
+
+ outputs = { self, nixpkgs, noctalia, quickshell, ... }:
+ {
+ nixosConfigurations.my-host = nixpkgs.lib.nixosSystem {
+ modules = [
+ ./configuration.nix
+ ];
+ };
+ };
}
+```
+
+**Step 2**: Add the packages to your `configuration.nix`:
+```nix
+{
+ environment.systemPackages = with pkgs; [
+ inputs.noctalia.packages.${system}.default
+ inputs.quickshell.packages.${system}.default
+ ];
+}
+```
+
+
+
+### Usage
+
+`noctalia-shell` offers many IPC calls for your convenience, so you can add them to your favorite keybinds or scripts.
+
+*If you're using the Flake installation on NixOS, replace `qs -c noctalia-shell` with `noctalia-shell`*
+
+*If you're using the manual install (`git clone...` and have it in `~/.config/quickshell/`) you can just use `qs ipc call...`*

+## Advanced Configuration
+
+### Recommended Compositor Settings
+
+For Niri:
+
+```
+debug {
+ honor-xdg-activation-with-invalid-serial
+}
+
+window-rule {
+ geometry-corner-radius 20
+ clip-to-geometry true
+}
+
+layer-rule {
+ match namespace="^quickshell-wallpaper$"
+}
+
+layer-rule {
+ match namespace="^quickshell-overview$"
+ place-within-backdrop true
+}
+```
+`honor-xdg-activation-with-invalid-serial` allows notification actions (like view etc) to work.
