        Westford

=====================

A Wayland compositor written in Kotlin.

This is a work in progress and not ready for day to day use, however

certain features like client movement and render output on X are considered ready.

This compositor was originally written in Java. The latest Java commit can still be found [here](https://github.com/udevbe/westford/tree/8510ee7b3387a8693a2fa364a590e6b7caf0784a)

Building

========

Prerequisites: 

- gradle

- cmake 

- docker (optional, needed for build-in cross compilation) 

Run `gradle build` in the root of the project. Westford is still under heavy 

development, so occasionally tests might fail. If this is the case you can run the build

with `gradle build -x test`.

To cross compile for a specific architecture, set the corresponding arch variable in the gradle build command.

Available profiles are:

| Architecture | arch        |

|:------------:|:-----------:|

| aarch64      |linux-aarch64|

| armv7hf      |linux-armv7hf| 

| armv7sf      |linux-armv7sf|

| armv6hf      |linux-armv6hf|

| x86_64       |linux-x86_64 |

| i686         |linux-i686   |

| all of above |all          |

So if we were to build for `armv7hf`, our build command would becomes `gradle build -x test -Parch=linux-armv7hf`.

This will trigger a cross compilation inside a cleanly isolated docker container.

If no profile is selected, the gradle build will default to the `native` profile, which corresponds to

the architecture that you're currently building on, without the use of docker.

Running

=======

Westford can be launched using different back-ends and configurations. These live as separate projects

under `launch`

Currently the following back-ends exist:

- `launch.x11`A back-end that outputs to a regular X11 window, one window per (virtual) screen. Ideal for quick testing.

- `launch.drm.direct` Uses the kernel's drm/kms system to directly output to the screen, without the use of X11. Root user only.

- `launch.drm.indirect`Uses the kernel's drm/kms system to directly output to the screen, without the use of X11. All users. Uses setuid.

Running under X11

=================

To create an runnable distribution, go into the `launch.x11` folder. Type `gradle installDist`.

This will create an executable `launch.x11` in `build/install/launch.x11/bin`

Next fire up some test clients from the Weston compositor (eg `weston-terminal`). 

Make sure you use Weston 1.4 as more recent versions depend on xdg-shell which is not 

yet implemented by Westford.

To configure the X11 back-end, open up `X11PlatformConfigSimple.kt` 

found in `westford/launch.x11/src/main/kotlin/org/westford/compositor/launch/x11` and adjust as required.

Running with drm/kms

====================

//TODO

Dependencies

============

The following native libraries are expected, depending on the features used:

 - libc (core)

 - pixman-1 (core)

 - EGL (core)

 - GLESv2 (core)

 - libdrm (drm)

 - libudev (drm)

 - libinput (drm)

 - X11 (x11)

 - xcb (x11)

 - X11-xcb (x11)

 - xkbcommon (core)

 - xkbcommon-x11 (x11)

 - linux (core)
