swaylock-plugin

Screen locker for Wayland with background plugin support

This is a fork of swaylock, a screen locking utility for Wayland compositors. With swaylock-plugin, you can for your lockscreen background display the animated output from any wallpaper program that implements the wlr-layer-shell-unstable-v1 protocol. All you have to do is run "swaylock-plugin --command 'my-wallpaper ...'", where "my-wallpaper ..." is replaced by your desired program. Examples: * swaybg, which displays regular background images * mpvpaper, which lets you play videos * shaderbg, renders OpenGL shaders * rwalkbg, a very slow animation * wscreensaver, an experiment in porting a few xscreensaver hacks to Wayland * windowtolayer, a tool that can be used to run normally windowed applications, like terminals, as wallpapers. Requires --command-each flag.
