Rudementary keynav like navigation in hyprland

[aflyingpumpkin]

I made a bash script that is able to sort of emulate what keynav does using hyprland.

bash script (waynav):

#!/bin/bash
#Depends on jq, and wlrctl
file="/tmp/waynav.sh"

cpos=$(hyprctl cursorpos)
ccx=${cpos%%,*}
ccy=${cpos##*, }

case $1 in
  "init")
    monitorDimensions="$(hyprctl monitors -j | jq '.[] | select(.focused==true) | .width,.height')"
    mx="$(echo "$monitorDimensions" | head -n 1)"
    my="$(echo "$monitorDimensions" | tail -n 1)"
    wlrctl pointer move $(((mx/2)-ccx)) $(((my/2)-ccy))
    echo "cx=$((mx/2))" > $file
    echo "cy=$((my/2))" >> $file
    echo "cox=$ccx" >> $file
    echo "coy=$ccy" >> $file
    echo "boxx=$mx" >> $file
    echo "boxy=$my" >> $file
    ;;
  "click")
    wlrctl pointer click
    rm -rf $file
    exit
    ;;
  "left")
    source $file
    wlrctl pointer move $(((cx-(boxx/4))-ccx)) $((cy-ccy))
    echo "cx=$((cx-(boxx/4)))" > $file
    echo "cy=$cy" >> $file
    echo "cox=$cox" >> $file
    echo "coy=$coy" >> $file
    echo "boxx=$((boxx/2))" >> $file
    echo "boxy=$boxy" >> $file
    ;;
  "right")
    source $file
    wlrctl pointer move $(((cx+(boxx/4))-ccx)) $((cy-ccy))
    echo "cx=$((cx+(boxx/4)))" > $file
    echo "cy=$cy" >> $file
    echo "cox=$cox" >> $file
    echo "coy=$coy" >> $file
    echo "boxx=$((boxx/2))" >> $file
    echo "boxy=$boxy" >> $file
    ;;
  "up")
    source $file
    wlrctl pointer move $((cx-ccx)) $(((cy-(boxy/4))-ccy)) 
    echo "cy=$((cy-(boxy/4)))" > $file
    echo "cx=$cx" >> $file
    echo "cox=$cox" >> $file
    echo "coy=$coy" >> $file
    echo "boxy=$((boxy/2))" >> $file
    echo "boxx=$boxx" >> $file
    ;;
  "down")
    source $file
    wlrctl pointer move $((cx-ccx)) $(((cy+(boxy/4))-ccy)) 
    echo "cy=$((cy+(boxy/4)))" > $file
    echo "cx=$cx" >> $file
    echo "cox=$cox" >> $file
    echo "coy=$coy" >> $file
    echo "boxy=$((boxy/2))" >> $file
    echo "boxx=$boxx" >> $file
    ;;
  *)
    wlrctl pointer click "$1"
    ;;
esac

hyprland.conf portion to make it work:

# keynav type movement
bind = CTRL,semicolon,exec,waynav init
bind = CTRL,semicolon,submap,keynav
submap = keynav
#nav
bind=,h,exec,waynav left
bind=,j,exec,waynav down
bind=,k,exec,waynav up
bind=,l,exec,waynav right
#click
bind=,1,exec,waynav left
bind=,2,exec,waynav middle
bind=,3,exec,waynav right
#exit
bind=,semicolon,exec,waynav exit
bind=,escape,exec,waynav exit
bind=,RETURN,exec,waynav click
bind=,semicolon,submap,reset
bind=,escape,submap,reset
bind=,RETURN,submap,reset
submap = reset
