⚠️ Seeking NixOS Maintainer ⚠️

HyprPanel is currently looking for a NixOS maintainer to help stabilize and maintain the NixOS integration. If you have experience with Nix and would like to contribute, please reach out to me via the HyprPanel discord.

HyprPanel 🚀

A panel built for Hyprland with Astal

NOTE: If you would like to support the project, please instead donate to Aylur who put in tremendous effort to build AGS. Hyprpanel likely wouldn't exist without it.

Arch

pacman:

 sudo pacman -S --needed wireplumber libgtop bluez bluez-utils btop networkmanager dart-sass wl-clipboard brightnessctl swww python upower pacman-contrib power-profiles-daemon gvfs

AUR:

yay -S --needed aylurs-gtk-shell-git grimblast-git wf-recorder-git hyprpicker matugen-bin python-gpustat hyprsunset-git

Fedora

COPR - Add solopasha/hyprland for most hyprland-related dependencies, and hues-sueh/packages for matugen. Both provide the swww package, so prioritise the former repo:

sudo dnf copr enable solopasha/hyprland
sudo dnf copr enable heus-sueh/packages
sudo dnf config-manager --save --setopt=copr:copr.fedorainfracloud.org:heus-sueh:packages.priority=200

DNF:

sudo dnf install wireplumber upower libgtop2 bluez bluez-tools grimblast hyprpicker btop NetworkManager wl-clipboard swww brightnessctl gnome-bluetooth aylurs-gtk-shell power-profiles-daemon gvfs nodejs wf-recorder

npm:

npm install -g sass

Optional Dependencies

pip:

sudo dnf install python python3-pip; pip install gpustat pywal

NixOS

For NixOS/Home-Manager, see NixOS & Home-Manager instructions.

Installation

To install HyprPanel, you can run the following commands:

git clone https://github.com/Jas-SinghFSU/HyprPanel.git
cd HyprPanel
meson setup build
meson compile -C build
meson install -C build

Installing NerdFonts

HyprPanel uses Nerdfonts to display icons. You can install them using the following command from within the HyprPanel's scripts directory:

# Installs the JetBrainsMono NerdFonts used for icons
./scripts/install_fonts.sh

If you install the fonts after installing HyperPanel, you will need to restart HyperPanel for the changes to take effect.

NixOS & Home-Manager

Alternatively, if you're using NixOS and/or Home-Manager, you can setup AGS using the provided Nix Flake. First, add the repository to your Flake's inputs, and enable the overlay. You can now also just use wrapper as the package directly and ignore this section almost entirely (expect for adding inputs), it's recommended to avoid overlays.

# flake.nix

{
  inputs = {
    nixpkgs.url = "github:NixOS/nixpkgs/nixos-unstable";
    hyprpanel = {
      url = "github:Jas-SinghFSU/HyprPanel";
      inputs.nixpkgs.follows = "nixpkgs";
    };
  };

  outputs =
    { self, nixpkgs, ... }@inputs:
    let
      overlays = [
        inputs.hyprpanel.overlay
      ];
    in
    {
      nixosConfigurations = {
        nixos = nixpkgs.lib.nixosSystem {
          specialArgs = {
            inherit inputs;
          };
          modules = [
            ./configuration.nix
            { nixpkgs.overlays = [ overlays ]; }
          ];
        };
      };
    };
}

Once you've set up the overlay, you can reference HyprPanel with pkgs.hyprpanel as if it were any other Nix package. This means you can reference it as a NixOS system/user package, a Home-Manager user package, or as a direct reference in your Hyprland configuration (if your configuration is managed by Home-Manager). The first three methods will add it to your $PATH (first globally, second two user-only), however the final will not.

# configuration.nix

# install it as a system package
environment.systemPackages = with pkgs; [
  # ...
  inputs.hyprpanel.packages.${pkgs.system}.wrapper # this one if you want to avoid overlays/didn't enable them
  hyprpanel
  # ...
];

# or install it as a user package
users.users.<username>.packages = with pkgs; [
  # ...
  inputs.hyprpanel.packages.${pkgs.system}.wrapper # this one if you want to avoid overlays/didn't enable them
  hyprpanel
  # ...
];


# home.nix

# install it as a user package with home-manager
home.packages = with pkgs; [
  # ...
  inputs.hyprpanel.packages.${pkgs.system}.wrapper # this one if you want to avoid overlays/didn't enable them
  hyprpanel
  # ...
];

# or reference it directly in your Hyprland configuration
wayland.windowManager.hyprland.settings.exec-once = [
  "${pkgs.hyprpanel}/bin/hyprpanel"
  "${inputs.hyprpanel.packages.${pkgs.system}.wrapper}/bin/hyprpanel" # this one if you want to avoid overlays/didn't enable them
];

Launch the panel

Afterwards you can run the panel with the following command in your terminal:

hyprpanel

Or you can add it to your Hyprland config (hyprland.conf) to auto-start with:

exec-once = hyprpanel

Notifications

HyprPanel handles notifications through the AGS built-in notification service. If you're already using a notification daemon such as Dunst or Mako, you may have to stop them to prevent conflicts with HyprPanel.

NOTE: If your system is in a language other than English, the resource monitor in the dashboard may not work properly.
