Remote i3-wm WS
===============

This project is a POC for managing a GNU/Linux desktop (with i3-wm). It implements an interface for running:

* `amixer`
* `i3-msg`
* `xdotool`
* `playerctl`
* `import`

It allows you to:

* change the i3-wm workspaces
* manage volume and spotify
* send text and shortcuts
* move the pointer, scroll and click
* make a screenshot and show the live screen

…by using a web interface with your phone.

Installation
------------

**Requirements**
* PHP7
* composer

```
$ git clone https://gitnet.fr/deblan/remote-i3wm-ws.git
$ cd remote-i3wm-ws/
$ cd client && composer install && cd ..
$ cd server && composer install && cd ..
$ php -S 0.0.0.0:15000 -t client/&

```

The server can be run with verbosity:

* `-v` or `--verbose` to show server messages
* `-m` or `--message` to show client messages
* `-b` or `--bind` to define server address to bind (default: `0.0.0.0`)

Open `http://your.local.ip:15000` and enjoy!

If you want to start/stop/restart the websocket easily:

```
$ export SERVER_OPTIONS="-v"
$ server/server start
$ server/server stop
$ server/server restart
```
