From 4ddb608563d985060d69594d1004550a680ae3bd Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Christian Duerr Date: Wed, 31 Aug 2022 22:48:38 +0000 Subject: Add IPC config subcommand This patch adds a new mechanism for changing configuration options without editing the configuration file, by sending options to running instances through `alacritty msg`. Each window will load Alacritty's configuration file by default and then accept IPC messages for config updates using the `alacritty msg config` subcommand. By default all windows will be updated, individual windows can be addressed using `alacritty msg config --window-id "$ALACRITTY_WINDOW_ID"`. Each option will replace the config's current value and cannot be reset until Alacritty is restarted or the option is overwritten with a new value. Configuration options are passed in the format `field.subfield=value`, where `value` is interpreted as yaml. Closes #472. --- alacritty_terminal/src/tty/windows/mod.rs | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) (limited to 'alacritty_terminal/src/tty/windows') diff --git a/alacritty_terminal/src/tty/windows/mod.rs b/alacritty_terminal/src/tty/windows/mod.rs index aa21ce14..57925f4c 100644 --- a/alacritty_terminal/src/tty/windows/mod.rs +++ b/alacritty_terminal/src/tty/windows/mod.rs @@ -27,7 +27,7 @@ pub struct Pty { child_watcher: ChildExitWatcher, } -pub fn new(config: &PtyConfig, window_size: WindowSize, _window_id: Option) -> Result { +pub fn new(config: &PtyConfig, window_size: WindowSize, _window_id: u64) -> Result { conpty::new(config, window_size) .ok_or_else(|| Error::new(ErrorKind::Other, "failed to spawn conpty")) } -- cgit v1.2.3-54-g00ecf
