# Wayshell Module System Plan ## Overview The Wayshell Module System is designed to provide a flexible and efficient way to manage different types of modules in a Wayland environment. The system will parse configuration files and trigger actions based on specific events. ## Module Types 1. **Zone Module**: Allows defining zones and triggers for entering and exiting these zones. 2. **Layout Module**: Allows triggering actions based on the activation or deactivation of specific layout types. 3. **Focused Module**: Allows triggering actions based on focusing or unfocusing specific client types. ## Configuration Files - **wayshell.conf**: General configuration file. - **wayshell.modules**: Defines the modules. ## Design Constraints - Minimize CPU usage to less than 3% when running as a daemon. - Avoid constantly running expensive commands. ## Implementation Plan ### Phase 1: Initial Setup 1. **Parse Configuration Files**: Implement parsers for `wayshell.conf` and `wayshell.modules`. 2. **Module Initialization**: Initialize the different module types (Zone, Layout, Focused). ### Phase 2: Event Handling 1. **Zone Module**: Implement event triggers for entering and exiting zones. 2. **Layout Module**: Implement event triggers for activating and deactivating layouts. 3. **Focused Module**: Implement event triggers for focusing and unfocusing clients. ### Phase 3: Performance Optimization 1. **Efficient Parsing**: Optimize the parsing of configuration files to minimize CPU usage. 2. **Event Debouncing**: Implement debouncing for events to avoid unnecessary triggers. ### Phase 4: Testing 1. **Unit Tests**: Write unit tests for each module type. 2. **Integration Tests**: Write integration tests to ensure the modules work together correctly. 3. **Performance Tests**: Conduct performance tests to ensure the system meets the CPU usage constraints. ## Next Steps 1. Review the plan and provide feedback. 2. Proceed with the implementation based on the approved plan.
