Rofi - full menu¶

A fullscreen Rofi application launcher (drun mode) with a pre-themed grid layout. Designed to be the primary app launcher in a Hyprland setup.

Package: fullmenu

Overview¶

src/rofi/fullmenu/
├── default.nix
├── bin/
│   └── menu           # launches rofi in drun mode with the bundled config
└── share/
    ├── conf.rasi      # rofi config (keybinds, font, drun settings)
    └── full.rasi      # fullscreen grid theme (8 columns × 4 rows)

`menu` - the launcher¶

#!/usr/bin/env bash
SCRIPT_DIR="$(cd "$(dirname "$0")" && pwd)"
SRC_DIR="$(dirname "$SCRIPT_DIR")"

ROFI_THEME_STR="${ROFI_THEME_STR:-}"

killall -q rofi

rofi -show drun -config "$SRC_DIR/share/conf.rasi"

Simple by design: kill any existing rofi (toggle behavior), then launch drun with the bundled config.


Arguments	none
Runtime deps	`rofi-wayland`, `killall`
Package	`fullmenu`
Main program	`menu`

Theme¶

`conf.rasi`¶

Standard keybind config (Ctrl+h/j/k/l navigation, mouse click select, Return accept) plus drun-specific settings:

modi:                       "drun";
show-icons:                 true;
display-drun:               "";
drun-display-format:        "{name}";

Quick-select keys are enabled: l (1st), s (2nd), e (3rd), r (4th), S (5th).

`full.rasi` - grid layout¶

A centered, fullscreen window (1366×768) with a translucent black background (black / 10%). The listview is an 8-column × 4-row grid with vertical orientation, 72px icons, and rounded 15px element corners. The input bar is centered with a 10px rounded border.

Theme injection

The first line of full.rasi is {{full-theme-str}} - a placeholder replaced at build time with the full-theme-str argument. This is where color variables (@selected, @foreground, etc.) are injected, typically from Stylix.

Build overrides¶

Argument	Default	Description
`full-theme-str`	`""`	Rasi fragment substituted into `full.rasi` (color variables)

inputs.utils.packages.${pkgs.system}.fullmenu.override {
  full-theme-str = ''
    * {
      selected: #62AEEF;
      foreground: #ffffff;
      background-alt: #101010;
    }
  '';
}

Environment variables¶

Variable	Default	Description
`ROFI_THEME_STR`	`""`	Additional inline theme override (currently unused by the script but available)

Usage¶

# Direct
nix run github:semi710/utils#fullmenu

# In config
{ inputs, pkgs, lib, ... }:
let u = inputs.utils.packages.${pkgs.system};
in {
  wayland.windowManager.hyprland.settings.bind = [
    "$mod, space, exec, ${lib.getExe u.fullmenu}"
  ];
}

With Stylix colors¶

{ inputs, pkgs, config, ... }:
let
  u = inputs.utils.packages.${pkgs.system};
  fullmenu = u.fullmenu.override {
    full-theme-str = with config.lib.stylix.colors; ''
      * {
        selected: #${base0D};
        foreground: #${base05};
        background-alt: #${base01};
      }
    '';
  };

{
  home.packages = [ fullmenu ];
