XMonad Config

About This Config

XMonad Scrot
XMonad Scrot

Xmonad is a dynamically tiling X11 window manager that is written and configured in Haskell.

This is the xmonad configuration of Derek Taylor (DistroTube)

Keep in mind, that my configs are purposely bloated with examples of what you can do with xmonad. It is written more as a study guide rather than a config that you should download and use.

Imports

These are Haskell modules that we must import so that we can use their functions later in the config.

Variables

It's nice to assign values to stuff that you will use more than once in the config. Setting values for things like font, terminal and editor means you only have to change the value here to make changes globally.

myFont :: String
myFont = "xft:Mononoki Nerd Font:bold:size=9:antialias=true:hinting=true"

myModMask :: KeyMask
myModMask = mod4Mask       -- Sets modkey to super/windows key

myTerminal :: String
myTerminal = "alacritty"   -- Sets default terminal

myBrowser :: String
myBrowser = "qutebrowser "               -- Sets qutebrowser as browser for tree select
-- myBrowser = myTerminal ++ " -e lynx " -- Sets lynx as browser for tree select

myEditor :: String
myEditor = "emacsclient -c -a emacs "  -- Sets emacs as editor for tree select
-- myEditor = myTerminal ++ " -e vim "    -- Sets vim as editor for tree select

myBorderWidth :: Dimension
myBorderWidth = 2          -- Sets border width for windows

myNormColor :: String
myNormColor   = "#282c34"  -- Border color of normal windows

myFocusColor :: String
myFocusColor  = "#46d9ff"  -- Border color of focused windows

altMask :: KeyMask
altMask = mod1Mask         -- Setting this for use in xprompts

windowCount :: X (Maybe String)
windowCount = gets $ Just . show . length . W.integrate' . W.stack . W.workspace . W.current . windowset

Autostart

These are commands we want XMonad to execute on startup, such as running a compositor, setting our wallpaper, starting the emacs daemon, and starting our system tray and the applications that belong in it.

myStartupHook :: X ()
myStartupHook = do
          spawnOnce "nitrogen --restore &"
          spawnOnce "picom --experimental-backend &"
          spawnOnce "nm-applet &"
          spawnOnce "volumeicon &"
          spawnOnce "trayer --edge top --align right --widthtype request --padding 6 --SetDockType true --SetPartialStrut true --expand true --monitor 1 --transparent true --alpha 0 --tint 0x282c34  --height 22 &"
          spawnOnce "/usr/bin/emacs --daemon &"
          -- spawnOnce "kak -d -s mysession &"
          setWMName "LG3D"

Gridselect

GridSelect displays items (programs, open windows, etc.) in a 2D grid and lets the user select from it with the cursor/hjkl keys or the mouse.

myColorizer :: Window -> Bool -> X (String, String)
myColorizer = colorRangeFromClassName
                  (0x28,0x2c,0x34) -- lowest inactive bg
                  (0x28,0x2c,0x34) -- highest inactive bg
                  (0xc7,0x92,0xea) -- active bg
                  (0xc0,0xa7,0x9a) -- inactive fg
                  (0x28,0x2c,0x34) -- active fg

-- gridSelect menu layout
mygridConfig :: p -> GSConfig Window
mygridConfig colorizer = (buildDefaultGSConfig myColorizer)
    { gs_cellheight   = 40
    , gs_cellwidth    = 200
    , gs_cellpadding  = 6
    , gs_originFractX = 0.5
    , gs_originFractY = 0.5
    , gs_font         = myFont
    }

spawnSelected' :: [(String, String)] -> X ()
spawnSelected' lst = gridselect conf lst >>= flip whenJust spawn
    where conf = def
                   { gs_cellheight   = 40
                   , gs_cellwidth    = 200
                   , gs_cellpadding  = 6
                   , gs_originFractX = 0.5
                   , gs_originFractY = 0.5
                   , gs_font         = myFont
                   }

myAppGrid = [ ("Audacity", "audacity")
                 , ("Deadbeef", "deadbeef")

                 ]

Treeselect

TreeSelect displays your workspaces or actions in a Tree-like format. You can select desired workspace/action with the cursor or hjkl keys. My TreeSelect menu is rather large and includes a mixture of applications, web bookmarks, configuration files and xmonad actions.

Scratchpads

Allows to have several floating scratchpads running different applications. Import Util.NamedScratchpad and bind a key to namedScratchpadSpawnAction. In the example below, I create two named scratchpads: (1) a scratchpad for my terminal, and (2) a scratchpad for moc which is a termina music player.

myScratchPads :: [NamedScratchpad]
myScratchPads = [ NS "terminal" spawnTerm findTerm manageTerm
                , NS "mocp" spawnMocp findMocp manageMocp
                ]
  where
    spawnTerm  = myTerminal ++ " -n scratchpad"
    findTerm   = resource =? "scratchpad"
    manageTerm = customFloating $ W.RationalRect l t w h
               where
                 h = 0.9
                 w = 0.9
                 t = 0.95 -h
                 l = 0.95 -w
    spawnMocp  = myTerminal ++ " -n mocp 'mocp'"
    findMocp   = resource =? "mocp"
    manageMocp = customFloating $ W.RationalRect l t w h
               where
                 h = 0.9
                 w = 0.9
                 t = 0.95 -h
                 l = 0.95 -w

Layouts

Makes setting the spacingRaw simpler to write. The spacingRaw module adds a configurable amount of space around windows.

mySpacing :: Integer -> l a -> XMonad.Layout.LayoutModifier.ModifiedLayout Spacing l a
mySpacing i = spacingRaw False (Border i i i i) True (Border i i i i) True

-- Below is a variation of the above except no borders are applied
-- if fewer than two windows. So a single window has no gaps.
mySpacing' :: Integer -> l a -> XMonad.Layout.LayoutModifier.ModifiedLayout Spacing l a
mySpacing' i = spacingRaw True (Border i i i i) True (Border i i i i) True

-- Defining a bunch of layouts, many that I don't use.

Workspaces

I include two options for workspace: (1) Standard non-clickable workspaces, and (2) clickable workspaces. Choose one.

Standard Non-Clickable Workspaces

These workspaces do not accept mouse clicks for changing workspaces. You must use the keybindings (which you probably should be doing anyway). To use standard non-clickable workspaces, be sure have 'workspaces = myWorkspaces' in the main at the bottom of this config.

myWorkspaces = [" dev ", " www ", " sys ", " doc ", " vbox ", " chat ", " mus ", " vid ", " gfx "]
-- myWorkspaces = [" 1 ", " 2 ", " 3 ", " 4 ", " 5 ", " 6 ", " 7 ", " 8 ", " 9 "]

Clickable Workspaces

Clickable workspaces means the mouse can be used to switch workspaces. This requires xdotool to be installed. You need to use UnsafeStdInReader instead of simply StdInReader in your xmobar config so you can pass actions to it. Finally, to use clickable workspaces, be sure have 'workspaces = myClickableWorkspaces' in the main at the bottom of this config.

xmobarEscape :: String -> String
xmobarEscape = concatMap doubleLts
  where
        doubleLts '<' = "<<"
        doubleLts x   = [x]

myClickableWorkspaces :: [String]
myClickableWorkspaces = clickable . (map xmobarEscape)
               -- $ [" 1 ", " 2 ", " 3 ", " 4 ", " 5 ", " 6 ", " 7 ", " 8 ", " 9 "]
               $ [" dev ", " www ", " sys ", " doc ", " vbox ", " chat ", " mus ", " vid ", " gfx "]
  where
        clickable l = [ "<action=xdotool key super+" ++ show (n) ++ ">" ++ ws ++ "</action>" |
                      (i,ws) <- zip [1..9] l,
                      let n = i ]

Managehook

Sets some rules for certain programs. Examples include forcing certain programs to always float, or to always appear on a certain workspace. Forcing programs to a certain workspace with a doShift requires xdotool if you are using clickable workspaces. You need the className or title of the program. Use xprop to get this info.

myManageHook :: XMonad.Query (Data.Monoid.Endo WindowSet)
myManageHook = composeAll
     -- using 'doShift ( myWorkspaces !! 7)' sends program to workspace 8!
     -- I'm doing it this way because otherwise I would have to write out the full
     -- name of my workspaces, and the names would very long if using clickable workspaces.
     [ title =? "Mozilla Firefox"     --> doShift ( myWorkspaces !! 1 )
     , className =? "mpv"     --> doShift ( myWorkspaces !! 7 )
     , className =? "vlc"     --> doShift ( myWorkspaces !! 7 )
     , className =? "Gimp"    --> doShift ( myWorkspaces !! 8 )
     , className =? "Gimp"    --> doFloat
     , title =? "Oracle VM VirtualBox Manager"     --> doFloat
     , className =? "VirtualBox Manager" --> doShift  ( myWorkspaces !! 4 )
     , (className =? "firefox" <&&> resource =? "Dialog") --> doFloat  -- Float Firefox Dialog
     ] <+> namedScratchpadManageHook myScratchPads

Loghook

Sets opacity for inactive (unfocused) windows. I prefer to not use this feature so I've set opacity to 1.0. If you want opacity, set this to a value of less than 1 (such as 0.9 for 90% opacity).

myLogHook :: X ()
myLogHook = fadeInactiveLogHook fadeAmount
    where fadeAmount = 1.0

Keybindings

I am using the Xmonad.Util.EZConfig module which allows keybindings to be written in simpler, emacs-like format. The Super/Windows key is 'M' (the modkey). The ALT key is 'M1'. SHIFT is 'S' and CTR is 'C'.

A FEW IMPORTANT KEYBINDINGS ASSOCIATED ACTION
MODKEY + RETURN opens terminal (alacritty is the terminal but can be easily changed)
MODKEY + SHIFT + RETURN opens run launcher (XMonad's shell xprompt)
MODKEY + TAB rotates through the available layouts
MODKEY + SHIFT + c closes window with focus
MODKEY + SHIFT + r restarts xmonad
MODKEY + SHIFT + q quits xmonad
MODKEY + 1-9 switch focus to workspace (1-9)
MODKEY + SHIFT + 1-9 send focused window to workspace (1-9)
MODKEY + j windows focus down (switches focus between windows in the stack)
MODKEY + k windows focus up (switches focus between windows in the stack)
MODKEY + SHIFT + j windows swap down (swap windows in the stack)
MODKEY + SHIFT + k windows swap up (swap the windows in the stack)
MODKEY + h shrink window (decreases window width)
MODKEY + l expand window (increases window width)
MODKEY + w switches focus to monitor 1
MODKEY + e switches focus to monitor 2
MODKEY + r switches focus to monitor 3
MODKEY + period switch focus to next monitor
MODKEY + comma switch focus to prev monitor
