emptty - Samples

~/.config/emptty or ~/.emptty as init script

In your .config folder you have to create 'emptty' file or in your home folder you have to create .emptty file.

This variant allows to treat your script in similar way as your .xinitrc, however this is common to both Xorg and Wayland. The magic option is Selection=true or Selection=auto. You can define your own environmental variables and keep the possibility to select any desktop.

As it is mentioned in README, no .profile scripts are sourced by default. However following scripts contains few examples, how it could be done inside emptty file.

Script with sourced /etc/profile

#!/bin/sh
Selection=true

xrandr --output eDP1 --mode 1920x1080
xrdb -merge ~/.Xresources

# source /etc/profile does not have any effect
. /etc/profile
. ~/.bashrc

export BROWSER=firefox
export EDITOR=vim

exec dbus-launch $@

Script with sourced /etc/profile using LoginShell

#!/bin/sh
Selection=true
LoginShell=/bin/bash --login

# /etc/profile is sourced by using non-interactive shell

exec dbus-launch $@

Script with fish support in LoginShell

Emptty supports simplified fish support, if shebang is set to fish, properties could be set in its basic way.

#!/bin/fish
set Selection true
set LoginShell /bin/fish --login

exec dbus-launch $argv

~/.config/emptty or ~/.emptty as config

In your .config folder you have to create 'emptty' file or in your home folder you have to create .emptty file. If environment is not defined, it assumes xorg.

Xorg session

Name=Custom Optional Name
Exec=/usr/bin/openbox-session
Environment=xorg

Wayland session

Name=Custom Optional Name
Exec=/usr/bin/sway
Environment=wayland

~/.config/emptty or ~/.emptty as script

In your .config folder you have to create 'emptty' file or in your home folder you have to create .emptty file. This file needs to have execution permission (chmod +x ~/.config/emptty or chmod +x ~/.emptty).

#!/bin/sh
Environment=xorg

# source /etc/profile does not have any effect
. /etc/profile
. ~/.bashrc

exec dbus-launch i3

~/.xinitrc

In your home folder you have to create .xinitrc file. This file needs to have execution permission (chmod +x ~/.xinitrc).

#!/bin/sh

. ~/.xprofile
xrdb -merge ~/.Xresources
xmodmap ~/.Xmodmap

exec dbus-launch $@

Custom sessions

User-specific

Create folder custom-sessions as super user

$ mkdir -p ~/.config/emptty-custom-sessions/

System-wide

Create folder custom-sessions as super user

$ sudo mkdir -p /etc/emptty/custom-sessions

In these folders you can paste your desktop files. If environment is not defined, it assumes xorg.

Xorg session

sowm.desktop

Name=sowm
Exec=/usr/bin/sowm
Environment=xorg

Wayland session

sway.desktop

Name=My custom Sway
Exec=/usr/bin/sway
Environment=wayland
