 # swaycycle
-Cycle through all visible windows on a sway[fx] workspace
+
+Cycle through  all visible windows  on a sway[fx]  workspace including
+floating  ones or  windows  in sub-containers.   So  it simulates  the
+behavior of other window managers  and desktop environments. Just bind
+the tool to `ALT-tab` and there you go.
+
+
+## Installation
+
+Download  the   binary  for   your  architecture  from   the  [release
+page](https://codeberg.org/scip/swaycycle/releases) and copy to
+some location within your `$PATH`.
+
+To  build  the  tool  from  source,  checkout  the  repo  and  execute
+`make`. You'll need  the go toolkit. Then copy  the binary `swaycycle`
+to some location within your `$PATH`.
+
+## Configuration
+
+Add such a line to your sway config file (e.g. in `$HOME/.config/sway/config`):
+
+```default
+bindsym $mod+Tab exec ~/bin/swaycycle
+```
+
+You may  also add  a second key  binding to do  the reverse,  which is
+sometimes very useful:
+
+```default
+bindsym $mod+Shift+Tab exec ~/bin/swaycycle --prev
+```
+
+## Debugging
+
+You may call `swaycycle` in a terminal window on a workspace with at
+least one another window to test it. Use the option `--debug (-d)` to
+get comprehensive debugging output. Add the option `--dump (-D)` to
+also get a dump of the sway data tree retrieved by swaycycle. You may
+also try `--verbose (-v)` to get a oneliner about the switch.
+
+It's also possible to debug an instance executed by sway using the
+`--logfile (-l)` switch, e.g.:
+
+```default
+bindsym $mod+Tab exec ~/bin/swaycycle -d -l /tmp/cycle.log
+```
+
+## How does it work?
+
+`swaycycle` is being executed by sway when the user presses a key
+(e.g. `ALT-tab`). It then connects to the running sway instance via
+the provided IPC unix domain socket as available in the environment
+variable `SWAYSOCK`. Via that connection it sends the `GET_TREE`
+command and processes the retrieved JSON response. This JSON tree
+contains all information about the running instance such as outputs,
+workspaces and containers.
+
+Then it determines which workspace is the current active one and
+builds a list of all windows visible on that workspace, whether
+floating or not.
+
+Next it determines which window is following the one in the list with
+the current active focus. If the active one is at the end of the list,
+it starts from the top.
+
+Finally `swaycycle` sends the propper switch focus command via the IPC
+connection to sway, e.g.:
+
+`[con_id=14] focus`
+
+## Getting help
+
+Although I'm happy to hear from swaycycle users in private email, that's the
+best way for me to forget to do something.
+
+In order to report a bug,  unexpected behavior, feature requests or to
+submit    a    patch,    please    open   an    issue    on    github:
+https://codeberg.org/scip/swaycycle/issues.
