Collaboration with xdpw

[columbarius]

Hi, I'm one of the xdpw developers and started implementing the parts required for session restore and different capture targets. My next goals would be to push those into the chooser part such that users could interact with them.

Would there be interest to collaborate on this task?

Note: tried to join your discord server, but it requires phone validation.

What do you mean by "collaborate"? I maintain -hyprland because hyprland-protocols

[columbarius]

What I mean is that I'm interested in sharing the PipeWire and chooser specific parts of the portal implementation as much as possible, also easing in up/downstreaming of patches.

Would you be interested in reviewing and/or giving feedback on the capture_target and an improved chooser design (using json to communicate) and maybe adapting your chooser, such that it could work with xdpw as well? I'd continue to work on them tomorrow and could link those MRs here.

Hyprland's QT chooser has nothing that would not work with xdpw. Obviously though, sharing windows would not be possible.

Unless you mean making the output whatever xdpw accepts, in which case it's not possible without modifications on the xdpw side.

I am not sure I understand what that entails. You want me to review your PRs to xdpw? I mean sure, I can. I guess.

If you mean making the hyprland chooser use json as output, yeah, sure, that's not a biggie.

i am working with the same feature @columbarius you are already in discord?
i get the session restore to work with both window and output, but i need to refactor to work with tiles and not only ids for windows to keep the share working even if the window is closed, if you wanna we can work togther

i am translating your pr to this portal ( and you did a great job i need to say)

Great! I've updated emersion/xdg-desktop-portal-wlr#228.
Please take a look at chooser-protocol.json

Yes, but without phone verification I can't write anything there.

Great!, I'd like to.

you can, it's clearly stated in #rules to dm me on discord in case you can't/don't want to verify your phone number.

I think this can be closed as this is no longer a fork
