funkpower 92b2efbd51 desktop front ends for typikon
A Quickshell widget for Hyprland, a waybar module and an eww panel, all
reading the same JSON from the typikon CLI so none of them touches the
network and all three agree.

The Quickshell piece is three separable parts: a Typikon singleton that
wraps the CLI and re-reads only when the date rolls over, a Theme singleton
that takes colours from JSON with a default for every key, and the widget
itself.

The legend is built from the week in view rather than hardcoded, because the
levels a tradition uses are its own -- six under the Typikon, three under
Ruthenian particular law -- and the words for them differ too. The church
date shows beside the civil one whenever they differ, which on the old
calendar is always. Forefeasts and afterfeasts get their own line instead of
crowding out the commemoration that makes the day.

# horologion
Desktop front ends for [`typikon`](https://git.pumpin.online/funkpower/typikon)
— the Orthodox liturgical day on your desktop, in Hyprland (Quickshell),
waybar or eww.
Everything is computed locally by `typikon`, so none of this touches the
network, and the widget re-reads only when the date rolls over — the answer
changes at midnight and at no other moment.
## Install
`typikon` first, since all three front ends shell out to it:
```console
$ pip install typikon
$ typikon --set-default rocor # or antiochian, oca, greece, ...
```
Then:
```console
$ git clone https://git.pumpin.online/funkpower/horologion
$ cd horologion && ./bin/horologion-install
```
That links rather than copies, so `git pull` updates what you are running. Pass
`quickshell`, `waybar`, `eww` or `bin` to do just one.
## Quickshell
A desktop widget for Hyprland and anything else Quickshell runs on.
```console
$ quickshell -p ~/.config/quickshell/horologion/shell.qml
```
It sits on the background layer, so it behaves like part of the wallpaper —
always under your windows, never stealing a click.
To drop it into a shell you already have:
```qml
import qs.horologion.modules
Horologion {}
```
Three pieces, each usable on its own:
| | |
|---|---|
| `services/Typikon.qml` | a singleton wrapping the CLI — bind to it from anything |
| `services/Theme.qml` | colours, from JSON, with defaults for every key |
| `modules/Horologion.qml` | the widget |
Set a jurisdiction per-widget if you want one different from your default:
```qml
Horologion {
Component.onCompleted: Typikon.jurisdiction = "moscow"
}
```
### Colours
`Theme.qml` reads `~/.config/horologion/colors.json`, or whatever
`HOROLOGION_COLORS` points at, and watches it for changes. Every key has a
default, so the widget is legible with no file at all. See
`quickshell/colors.example.json` — the flat shape most theme generators
already emit.
## waybar
```jsonc
"custom/typikon": {
"exec": "horologion-waybar",
"return-type": "json",
"interval": 1800,
"on-click": "typikon --days 7"
}
```
The module's CSS class is the fast level — `.xerophagy`, `.wine_oil`, `.fish`
— so a day's discipline reads off the colour without reading the text.
`.obligatory` is added only where a particular law actually binds, which under
the Typikon is never: the Orthodox Church keeps the fast as tradition, not as
precept. `waybar/style.css` has a starting palette.
Change what the text says with `--format`:
```console
$ horologion-waybar --format '{emoji} {fastLabel}'
$ horologion-waybar -j moscow --format '{emoji} {churchDate}'
```
## eww
```lisp
(include "horologion/horologion.yuck")
```
Then `(horologion)` for the full panel or `(horologion-bar)` for one line.
`horologion.scss` carries the styling; its colours are `!default` variables, so
set your own before the `@import`.
## What it shows
The feast or the day's principal commemoration, the fast and why, the season,
the week ahead, and Pascha. Two details worth pointing out:
- **The church date** appears beside the civil one whenever they differ, which
on the old calendar is always. 25 December and 7 January are the same feast.
- **Forefeasts, afterfeasts and leave-takings** get their own quiet line rather
than crowding out the commemoration that makes the day itself. They repeat
for days at a time.
The legend is built from the week in view rather than hardcoded, because the
levels a tradition uses are its own — six under the Typikon, three under
Ruthenian particular law — and the words for them differ too.
