This is a toy for Hyprland.
This app automatically rename workspaces with icons of started applications - tested with waybar.
Available as AUR package under the program name hyprland-autoname-workspaces-git.
You can then use the service systemctl --user enable --now hyprland-autoname-workspaces.service.
$ cargo install --locked hyprland-autoname-workspaces$ hyprland-autoname-workspacesor to dedup icon
$ hyprland-autoname-workspaces --dedupIn the config file ~/.config/hyprland-autoname-workspaces/config.toml.
Edit the mapping of applications with class = "icon" in the [icons] part.
You can also exclude applications in the [exclude] with class = title.
In the exclude part, the key is the window class, and the value the title.
You can use "" in order to exclude window with empty title and "*" as value to match all title of a class name.
Example:
...
[exclude]
fcitx = "*"
Steam = "Friends list"
No need to restart the applications then, there is an autoreload.
Hint: You can use glyphsearch and copy the unicode icon of your font for example https://glyphsearch.com/?query=book©=unicode
