Assuming implement sd-notify status updates when systemd is used by gdamjan · Pull Request #83 · swaywm/swayidle is merged into the swayidle project, we launch the swayidle service with a more precise Type=notify
.
systemd should not be viewed as a dependency manager but as an event manager (ie: sway should up the *.target
witch should not be automatically pulled via dependency).
Also wayland-session*.target
will not happen, I should use Condition*=
It seems that months ago, someone added sway-session.target
to sway-contrib.
I tried to install sway-contrib
package but it fails because the file already exist and was installed by this package.
pacman -S sway-contrib
error: failed to commit transaction (conflicting files)
sway-contrib: /usr/lib/systemd/user/sway-session.target exists in filesystem (owned by sway-services-git)
Errors occurred, no packages were upgraded.
I might suggest adapting the .target
unit here because it seems to be a custom solution, but I have not fully developed this idea.
In the meantime, is there any workaround?
Thank you for the effort maintaining the package.
Config file is upstream.
I should have a script to migrate configurations
sway-services/systemd/sway.service
Line 13 in b997441
(I'm comparing my own snowflake service file with others, hopefully dropping the duplicate work there).
Calling import-environment without a list of variable names is deprecated.

I don't like it and I would rather have the NotifyAccess
set to either main
or exec
to avoid any user program write access to the service state.
As seen in swaywm/sway#5777 there can be problems launching Flatpaks under Sway due to the dbus environment.
To address this, the Arch Linux package for sway
ships /etc/sway/config.d/50-systemd-user.conf
.
To compare, here's the version shipped by this project:
# Import variables set-up by sway into the environment and notify systemd that
# sway is ready.
exec systemctl --user import-environment SWAYSOCK \
DISPLAY \
I3SOCK \
WAYLAND_DISPLAY \
XCURSOR_SIZE \
XCURSOR_THEME \
&& systemd-notify --ready
# sway does not set DISPLAY/WAYLAND_DISPLAY in the systemd user environment
# See FS#63021
# Adapted from xorg's 50-systemd-user.sh, which achieves a similar goal.
exec systemctl --user import-environment DISPLAY WAYLAND_DISPLAY SWAYSOCK
exec hash dbus-update-activation-environment 2>/dev/null && \
dbus-update-activation-environment --systemd DISPLAY WAYLAND_DISPLAY SWAYSOCK
If someone using this project has trouble with Flatpaks, try merging in the approach used by Arch and see it if helps.
It was proposed that systemd provide a standardized "wayland-session.target".
Instead, the approach implemented was a more general solution of adding ConditionEnvironment=
to test environment variables. This was released in systemd v246 which in use now on at least Arch Linux.
Given that, we could adopt the the approach by no longer shipping or referencing a wayland-session.target
.
Instead, rely on the standardized graphical-session.target
and use ConditionEnvironment=WAYLAND_DISPLAY
for services that should only launch under Wayland.
This approach would avoid conflicts with other projects that might otherwise ship a "wayland-session.target" for the same reason this project did.
Due to the current design services units need After=wayland-session.target
in order to avoid racing sway initialization and environment importation...
Current workaround:
$ cat ~/.config/systemd/user/mako.service.d/override.conf
[Unit]
After=wayland-session.target
See #12
A manjaro-sway user reported a really strange issue: when stopping a container using podman stop
, sway is being killed. I didn't have a deeper look yet, but could reproduce it quite easily.
I tried to get gnome-keyring as a systemd service with Sway and could not. I believe it was due to making sure that gnome-keyring got launched early and got the environment variable it produces properly exported to other apps.
Eventually I got gnome-keyring working with Ly, but not as a systemd service:
Shipping a working gnome-keyring intetegration for Sway using systemd would be a helpful reference for how to do it properly.
When executing sway-user-service
from a shell, /etc/profile has already been sourced and does not need to be sourced again. Although this has limited impact on functionality, it does cause annoyances such as duplicate entries in $PATH
.
This issue is for tracking the proposal to add sway-session.target
upstream in the Sway project. If that happens, it can be removed here.
graphical session leaves a lot of env variables, they should be cleaned-up at exit (it can make sway fail to restart)
