cannot execute sequential commands as post_command
Closed this issue · 5 comments
Was trying to configure my post_command in config.ini such that pywal grabs the selected wallpaper, and then pywalfox is updated. The command I used is this:
post_command = wal -i $wallpaper && pywalfox update
Doing this however causes both of these commands to fail. I should note that having the post_command just be "wal -i $wallpaper" works as expected, and that running the same combo command manually (swapping out the $wallpaper variable for path/to/img, i.e "wal -i path/to/img && pywalfox update") also works exactly as expected
Yes, I see, it does not recognize && as comand separator...
echo "Hello" && echo "World" executed
"Hello" && echo "World"
I'll see what could be done.
Okay, fixed that. If you'd like to test, please install from main:
pipx install git+https://github.com/anufrievroman/waypaper
Hi, this did fix the issue described, but it also broke my keybind to open waypaper and the exec_once = waypaper --restore command in my hyprland.conf. I had previously installed waypaper through the AUR but uninstalled it and replaced it with the pip install to test this, I highly doubt that's relevant since it really shouldn't break something like that but just in case
Update: uninstalling the pipx package and reinstalling the AUR package has fixed that new issue. It has brought about another weird issue where pywal isn't detecting images with a numerated filename (eg. selecting wallpaper.jpg through waypaper does trigger the pywal command whereas selecting wallpaper(1).jpg causes the pywal command to fail. Luckily that's an issue that can be solved by me just bothering to organise my wallpapers.
Thank you for testing! I'll close this issue then. I think AUR calcure-git package should work too since it syncs with main.
