hyprEasymotion

Plugin to enable 'easymotion' navigation. Inspired by Xmonad easymotion (which is in turn inspired by vim-easymotion)

Configuration

Easymotion is basically a single dispatcher that brings up window labels and then allows you to execute a user-defined command when one of those labels is typed.

bind=SUPER,z,action:hyprctl dispatch focuswindow address:{}

This bind will bring up easymotion with SUPER-z. Once you select a window the window will focus. If you want to change the command, the selected window's address is substituted where "{}" occurs.

You can configure the appearance of the labels. Defaults are as follows:

plugin {
  easymotion {
    #font size of the text
    textsize=15

    #color of the text, takes standard hyprland color format
    textcolor=rgba(ffffffff)

    #background color of the label box. alpha is respected
    bgcolor=rgba(000000ff)

    #font to use for the label. This is passed directly to the pango font description
    textfont=Sans
    
    #padding around the text (inside the label box) size in pixels, adjusted for
    #monitor scaling. This is the same format as hyprland's gaps_in/gaps_out
    textpadding=0

    #size of the border around the label box
    bordersize=0

    #color of the border. takes the same format as hyprland's border (so it can be a gradient)
    bordercolor=rgba(ffffffff)

    #rounded corners? Same as hyprland's 'decoration:rounding' config
    rounding=0

    #which keys to use for labeling windows
    motionkeys=abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz1234567890
  }
}

Every one of these variables is also settable via the dispatcher, so you can create multiple dispatchers that look different based on function.

bind=SUPER,z,bgcolor=rgba(ff0000ff);bordersize=5;action:hyprctl dispatch closewindow address:{}

IMPORTANT

The easymotion arguments are separated by a semicolon, not a comma. (gap/padding format uses commas :/)
