After previous commits, swaybar bindsym statements would already accept
the new pseudo button names for swipe gestures. Also, sway itself would
not handle swipes when executed while the pointer was above a bar.
Add the necessary handling for three- and four-finger swipe pointer
gestures in swaybar. Cancel ongoing swipes when the pointer leaves the
bar as to not confuse successive swipes with focus changes inbetween
them. Add the pointer gestures protocol in client and server variants
to the meson build file to make the necessary definitions available.
Bind to the global interface on startup, instantiate a swipe gesture and
add a listener on seat setup as well as destroy it on seat shutdown.
Extend the sway-bar manual page as necessary.
Test-plan:
- add workspace switching to config like so:
bar bar-0 {
swaybar_command swaybar
bindsym release SWIPE_3_LEFT workspace prev_on_output
bindsym release SWIPE_4_RIGHT workspace next_on_output
bindsym --release SWIPE_3_LEFT exec yad --text foo
bindsym --release SWIPE_4_UP exec yad --text bar
}
- start sway and open two workspaces
- position pointer above a bar surface
- switch back and forth using horizontal three- and four-finger swipes,
observing that different finger counts are necessary per direction
- observe that the --release binding for left swipes is ignored because
there is an on-press binding already
- observe that the --release binding for upward swipes is honoured
because there is no on-press binding
- move pointer away from bar surface
- observe that switching by swipe no longer works

Release Signatures
Releases are signed with E88F5E48 and published on GitHub.
Installation
From Packages
Sway is available in many distributions. Try installing the "sway" package for yours.
If you're interested in packaging sway for your distribution, stop by the IRC channel or shoot an email to sir@cmpwn.com for advice.
Compiling from Source
Check out this wiki page if you want to build the HEAD of sway and wlroots for testing or development.
Install dependencies:
- meson *
- wlroots
- wayland
- wayland-protocols *
- pcre
- json-c
- pango
- cairo
- gdk-pixbuf2 (optional: system tray)
- scdoc (optional: man pages) *
- git (optional: version info) *
*Compile-time dep
Run these commands:
meson build/
ninja -C build/
sudo ninja -C build/ install
On systems without logind, you need to suid the sway binary:
sudo chmod a+s /usr/local/bin/sway
Sway will drop root permissions shortly after startup.
Configuration
If you already use i3, then copy your i3 config to ~/.config/sway/config and
it'll work out of the box. Otherwise, copy the sample configuration file to
~/.config/sway/config. It is usually located at /etc/sway/config.
Run man 5 sway for information on the configuration.
Running
Run sway from a TTY. Some display managers may work but are not supported by
sway (gdm is known to work fairly well).
