# Greetd_IPC

## Installation

Supported Zig Version: `0.13`.

``` bash

zig fetch 'https://codeberg.org/meow_king/greetd_ipc/archive/v0.1.1.tar.gz' --save

```

Then you can add this dependency into `build.zig` file:

``` zig

const dep = b.dependency("greetd_ipc", .{ .target = target, .optimize = optimize });

const module = dep.module("greetd_ipc");

exe.root_module.addImport("greetd_ipc", module);

```

For other version of Zig, you can include `greetd-ipc.zig` file into

your source directory.

## Usage

``` zig

const std = @import("std");

pub fn main() !void {

    var gpa_impl = std.heap.GeneralPurposeAllocator(.{}){};

    defer if (gpa_impl.deinit() == .leak) @panic("MEMORY LEAK");

    const gpa = gpa_impl.allocator();

    const gipc: GreetdIPC = try GreetdIPC.new(null, gpa);

    defer gipc.deinit();

    const request: Request = .{ .create_session = .{ .username = "user"}};

    try gipc.sendMsg(request);

    const response = try gipc.readMsg();

    std.debug.print("{s}\n", .{std.json.fmt(response, .{})});

}

```

## Run Example

Build `fakegreet` from [greetd](https://git.sr.ht/~kennylevinsen/greetd)

repo.

``` bash

zig build -Dexample=examples/demo.zig run-example

fakegreet ./zig-out/bin/demo

```

Or you can run the following command if you have

[just](https://github.com/casey/just) installed.

``` bash

just run

```

Note `fakegreet` is a testing tool inside greetd's repo. see

[source](https://git.sr.ht/~kennylevinsen/greetd/tree/master/item/fakegreet/src/main.rs).
