Here Comes The Rain
Thunderstorms abound which will be good for the vegetables growing in my garden (beetroot, courgettes, parsnips and onions)
Debianλ︎
I use Regolith Desktop & Debian for all the Lenovo laptops I own. Regolith is keyboard driven and had numbered workspaces so I can easily organise multiple applications (terminal & neovim, firefox browsing, OBS, Inkscape, Blender, etc)
X11 version of Regolith is used, although there was one annoyance. When sharing an external monitor and switching between laptops, the workspaces are moved to the laptop screen when the monitor is not showing the laptop output. Switching the monitor back to show the laptop screen leaves all the workspaces on the laptop display.
In earlier versions of Regolith Desktop, using Super+, would save the layout and Super+. would restore the workspaces to the original displays.
I have tried several approaches to make Regolith X11 work again, but with no success.
Out of curiosity, I tried Regolith Wayland which uses the sway compositor. I was presently surprised that sway automatically restores the workspaces to the external monitor display when reconnecting after switching back from another source.
There are some other issues using Wayland though, as some apps I use do not work
- Simple Screen Recorder for creating screencasts
Thankfully, OBS now supports Wayland and seems to work quite well. Although I did get a little confused when asked to select the display to record as it now uses the mouse rather than selecting a display. Using the mouse to click on the display to record was easy to do, once I realised that is how the selection worked.
I'll continue to test Regolith Sway for the next month and if there are benefits I will eventually switch all laptops to Regolith Wayland. It is possible to have both installed, so I can always switch between the two (logout required).
Material for MkDocsλ︎
MkDocs provides a local server that is very useful for local development, especially when first starting with a new website and learning the various thems and components.
Using the Python package manager will install the very latest version of Material for MkDocs.
The plugins used by Practicalli with Material for MkDocs are fully supported when using Python Pip package manager within a virtual environment.
Install Python Pip and the Python virtual environment packages via the Debian package manager:
Create and activate a python virtual environment
Use pip to install mkdocs-material along with the plugins used by the Practicalli site. The same plugins are also installed in the GitHub workflow.
pip install mkdocs-material mkdocs-callouts mkdocs-glightbox mkdocs-git-revision-date-localized-plugin mkdocs-redirects mkdocs-rss-plugin pillow cairosvg
Python Pip will not install packages outside of a manage environment (python virtual environment)
Using pipx will automatically create and manage a local environment
Pipx install
Install the python packages as root
Install the materials for mkdocs as user account, e.g. practicalli
NOTE: Pipx approach did not seem to support using the RSS plugin
Debian includes the mkdocs-material and mkdocs-material-extras` packages are recent versions of Material for MkDocs,9.5.18` at time of writing.
NOTE: Debian packages approach did not seem to support using the RSS plugin
