Launch or Focus

Simple utility tool for Niri that allows to focus a window by App ID or run a command if App ID is not found.

Examples

Alacritty

1lof Alacritty alacritty

if any window with app ID “Alacritty” is found, it will be focused. Otherwise the command will execute “alacritty”

Thunderbird binding

binds {
  Mod+E repeat=false {spawn-sh "lof org.mozilla.Thunderbird thunderbird"; }
}

Binding Thunderbird to Mod+e with lof means that with this binding I will always have only one instance of thunderbird running, and I don’t need to worry where I spawned it initially because it will focus automatically
