This crate provides types and functions for working with i3's IPC protocol within async-std. It re-exports the subcrate i3ipc-types
because it is also used for a synchronous version of the code.
I expect the most common use case will be to subscribe to some events and listen:
```rust use async_i3ipc::{ event::{Event, Subscribe}, I3, }; use std::io;
// prefer creating the runtime yourself and using only a single core. // this will hardly need to have a runtime with 1 thread for each core // on your machine
async fn main() -> io::Result<()> { let mut i3 = I3::connect().await?; let resp = i3.subscribe([Subscribe::Window]).await?;
println!("{:#?}", resp);
let mut listener = i3.listen();
while let Ok(event) = listener.next().await {
match event {
Event::Workspace(ev) => println!("workspace change event {:?}", ev),
Event::Window(ev) => println!("window event {:?}", ev),
Event::Output(ev) => println!("output event {:?}", ev),
Event::Mode(ev) => println!("mode event {:?}", ev),
Event::BarConfig(ev) => println!("bar config update {:?}", ev),
Event::Binding(ev) => println!("binding event {:?}", ev),
Event::Shutdown(ev) => println!("shutdown event {:?}", ev),
Event::Tick(ev) => println!("tick event {:?}", ev),
}
}
Ok(())
} ```
