Manually building plugin

First install build dependencies

sudo pacman -S git gcc cmake make pkg-config pango cairo librsvg libxkbcommon dbus

Download latest release.

git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/jmanc3/Mylarplugin
cd Mylarplugin
make release
sudo make install

That will generate mylar-desktop.so inside of the out folder.

Now you can load the plugin on Hyprland by running hyprctl plugin load /full/qualified/path/to/mylar-desktop.so.

To auto start it on login with Hyprland, add the following to $HOME/.config/hypr/hyprland.lua

hl.exec_cmd("hyprctl plugin load /full/qualified/path/to/mylar-desktop.so")

Hyprpm install method

Install with hyprpm:

hyprpm add https://github.com/jmanc3/Mylarplugin
hyprpm enable mylar-desktop

To load the plugin automatically when Hyprland starts, add this to ~/.config/hypr/hyprland.lua:

hl.on("hyprland.start", function()
    hl.exec_cmd("hyprpm reload -n")
end)
