base on A lightweight compositor for X11 with animation support picom ===== [](https://circleci.com/gh/yshui/picom) [](https://codecov.io/gh/yshui/picom) [](https://discord.gg/SY5JJzPgME) __picom__ is a compositor for X, and a [fork of Compton](History.md). **This is a development branch, bugs to be expected** You can leave your feedback or thoughts in the [discussion tab](https://github.com/yshui/picom/discussions), or chat with other users on [discord](https://discord.gg/SY5JJzPgME)! ## Change Log See [Releases](https://github.com/yshui/picom/releases) ## Build ### Dependencies Assuming you already have all the usual building tools installed (e.g. gcc, python, meson, ninja, etc.), you still need: * libx11 * libx11-xcb * xproto * xcb * xcb-util * xcb-damage * xcb-xfixes * xcb-shape * xcb-renderutil * xcb-render * xcb-randr * xcb-composite * xcb-image * xcb-present * xcb-glx * pixman * libconfig * libdbus (optional, disable with the `-Ddbus=false` meson configure flag) * libGL, libEGL, libepoxy (optional, disable with the `-Dopengl=false` meson configure flag) * libpcre2 (optional, disable with the `-Dregex=false` meson configure flag) * libev * uthash On Debian based distributions (e.g. Ubuntu), the needed packages are ``` libconfig-dev libdbus-1-dev libegl-dev libev-dev libgl-dev libepoxy-dev libpcre2-dev libpixman-1-dev libx11-xcb-dev libxcb1-dev libxcb-composite0-dev libxcb-damage0-dev libxcb-glx0-dev libxcb-image0-dev libxcb-present-dev libxcb-randr0-dev libxcb-render0-dev libxcb-render-util0-dev libxcb-shape0-dev libxcb-util-dev libxcb-xfixes0-dev meson ninja-build uthash-dev ``` On Fedora, the needed packages are ``` dbus-devel gcc git libconfig-devel libev-devel libX11-devel libX11-xcb libxcb-devel libGL-devel libEGL-devel libepoxy-devel meson pcre2-devel pixman-devel uthash-devel xcb-util-image-devel xcb-util-renderutil-devel xorg-x11-proto-devel xcb-util-devel ``` To build the documents, you need `asciidoctor` ### To build ```bash $ meson setup --buildtype=release build $ ninja -C build ``` Built binary can be found in `build/src` If you have libraries and/or headers installed at non-default location (e.g. under `/usr/local/`), you might need to tell meson about them, since meson doesn't look for dependencies there by default. You can do that by setting the `CPPFLAGS` and `LDFLAGS` environment variables when running `meson`. Like this: ```bash $ LDFLAGS="-L/path/to/libraries" CPPFLAGS="-I/path/to/headers" meson setup --buildtype=release build ``` As an example, on FreeBSD, you might have to run meson with: ```bash $ LDFLAGS="-L/usr/local/lib" CPPFLAGS="-I/usr/local/include" meson setup --buildtype=release build $ ninja -C build ``` ### To install ``` bash $ ninja -C build install ``` Default install prefix is `/usr/local`, you can change it with `meson configure -Dprefix=<path> build` ## How to Contribute All contributions are welcome! New features you think should be included in picom, a fix for a bug you found - please open a PR! You can take a look at the [Issues](https://github.com/yshui/picom/issues). Contributions to the documents and wiki are also appreciated. Even if you don't want to add anything to picom, you are still helping by compiling and running this branch, and report any issue you can find. ### Become a Collaborator Becoming a collaborator of picom requires significant time commitment. You are expected to reply to issue reports, reviewing PRs, and sometimes fix bugs or implement new feature. You won't be able to push to the main branch directly, and all you code still has to go through code review. If this sounds good to you, feel free to contact me. ## Contributors See [CONTRIBUTORS](CONTRIBUTORS) The README for the [original Compton project](https://github.com/chjj/compton/) can be found [here](History.md#Compton). ## Licensing picom is free software, made available under the [MIT](LICENSES/MIT) and [MPL-2.0](LICENSES/MPL-2.0) software licenses.
