Walker

Modular launcher with prefix support

• GitHub
• walker-wiki
• Docs
• Go
• AUR package: walker-bin
• Docs: Config
  • config.toml
  • Theming
• Issues:
  • Erratic and non-deterministic behaviour: Using the same input yields different matching results with i.e.: tail -200 recently_used_files.sh | tail -200 | tac | walker -d

Elephant

• Walker uses elephant as provider backend

  Development is on hold

• elephant-community
  • share their custom Elephant menus.

Install and setup:

pamac install elephant-providerlist-bin elephant-bitwarden-bin \
  elephant-calc-bin elephant-archlinuxpkgs-bin \
  elephant-bluetooth-bin elephant-bookmarks-bin elephant-files-bin \
  elephant-menus-bin \
  elephant-symbols-bin elephant-unicode-bin elephant-websearch-bin \
  elephant-windows-bin elephant-wireplumber-bin

Enable and start elephant systemd service:

elephant service enable
systemctl --user start elephant

Provider

• Internal providers
• walker-wiki: Providers
• Not obvious which providers are included and which need to get installed
  • i.e. clipboard provider seems to be included, but there's still a elephant-clipboard-bin AUR package ?

Walker setup

pamac install walker-bin

Menus

• Docs: Custom Menus
• Custom Walker Menus with Lua
• Config location: ~/.config/elephant/menus/
• Example custom menus
  • voznik/elephant-walker-custom-lua-menus
  • walker-iconify-menu Custom Elephant menu to browse Iconify icons in Walker Launcher.
