Updates Phase 1 acceptance section with the per-provider live
verification done after the OWLRY_SOCKET env var landed. Replaces
the earlier 'unit-tests-imply-correctness' note for issue #5 with
the actual live-daemon evidence.
Phase 1 (repo collapse) of the v2 restructure is complete. All 11 tasks
landed; the acceptance checklist in section 9 passes end-to-end.
Captured in section 10:
- Per-task commit log (a4a903 -> c48efaa)
- Each acceptance check (build, test, clippy, fmt, file layout, runtime
smoke) with the result
- Three deferred follow-ups that don't block 2.0.0 ship: dynamic-provider
visibility in doctor, clippy style nits, refresh_widgets stub
Next: Phase 2 (AUR republish as 2.0.0). The single owlry PKGBUILD
declares replaces/conflicts/provides for the 14 dropped packages and
builds with --features full.
Closes the v2 plugin conversion. Six providers ported from the
owlry-plugins sibling repo into the single owlry crate as feature-
gated modules. Each follows the same pattern established by systemd:
drop extern "C"/PluginItem/ProviderHandle/owlry_plugin! scaffolding,
implement Provider or DynamicProvider directly on a regular struct.
Static providers (Provider trait, populate via refresh):
- providers/bookmarks.rs — Firefox + Chromium bookmarks via rusqlite,
favicon cache preserved. dep: rusqlite (bundled), feature: bookmarks
- providers/clipboard.rs — cliphist history. feature: clipboard
- providers/emoji.rs — bundled emoji list with keyword tags.
feature: emoji
- providers/ssh.rs — ~/.ssh/config host extraction. feature: ssh
Dynamic providers (DynamicProvider trait, generate per query):
- providers/filesearch.rs — fd / mlocate shellout with extract_search_term
for ':file' and '/' triggers. feature: filesearch
- providers/websearch.rs — URL builder with DuckDuckGo/Google/custom
engines. TODO: plumb engine through constructor once Lua config lands
(Phase 3). feature: websearch
Wiring:
- Cargo.toml: 7 per-provider features + 'full' meta-feature. rusqlite
added as optional dep (only pulled in with feature 'bookmarks').
- config/mod.rs: ProvidersConfig gains 6 new bool fields (defaults true)
- providers/mod.rs: gated module declarations + new_with_config takes a
config snapshot and registers each provider behind its feature flag
Verification across feature axes:
- --no-default-features: 178 tests pass (feature-gated modules excluded)
- default (systemd only): 186 tests pass
- --features full: 233 tests pass (+55 from the 6 new conversions)
Tasks #6 and #7 complete.
Workspace shrinks from 2 members to 1. The daemon, IPC layer,
providers, config, frecency store, GTK4 UI, and CLI now live in a
single `crates/owlry` crate exposing both a library (so integration
tests can reach daemon types) and a binary.
Structural changes:
- crates/owlry-core/ deleted; all source moved into crates/owlry/src/
via git mv to preserve history
- crates/owlry/src/lib.rs added with module declarations
- crates/owlry/src/main.rs rewritten as thin entry that uses owlry::*
- crates/owlry/src/providers/mod.rs absorbs owlry-core's providers/mod.rs
and pulls dmenu into the same module tree
- All owlry_core:: refs in src/ rewritten to crate::
- All owlry_core:: refs in tests/ rewritten to owlry::
- systemd/owlryd.service: ExecStart=/usr/bin/owlry -d (single binary)
- justfile: drop owlry-core/owlry-lua/owlry-rune build steps; daemon
runs via 'cargo run -p owlry -- -d'
- owlry version: 1.0.10 -> 2.0.0-dev
Tests: 178 still pass (156 lib + 14 ipc + 8 server). No test changes
needed — moved files retained their inline test modules.
Task #2 complete.
Delete the entire dynamic-loading infrastructure that produced issue #5
and the per-API-bump plugin breakage cycle:
- crates/owlry-plugin-api/ (ABI-stable interface, gone)
- crates/owlry-lua/ (Lua runtime cdylib, gone — replaced by mlua in Phase 3)
- crates/owlry-rune/ (Rune runtime cdylib, gone per D3)
- owlry-core/src/plugins/ (loader, manifest, registry, watcher — all gone)
- owlry-core/src/providers/native_provider.rs
- owlry-core/src/providers/lua_provider.rs
- owlry-core/src/providers/config_editor.rs (per D11, 1127 LOC)
- owlry/src/plugin_commands.rs (per CLI restructure, 1296 LOC)
Provider trait gains submenu_actions(), execute_action(), prefix(),
icon(), position(), priority() as default methods so future built-in
providers can declare their UI metadata directly instead of relying on
the hardcoded match table.
ProviderManager simplified: drops native_providers,
static_native_providers, dynamic_providers, widget_providers,
runtimes, runtime_type_ids, plugin_registry fields and the
reload_runtimes / find_native_provider / get_widget_item /
widget_type_ids methods. ProviderPosition enum carries the Normal/
Widget distinction on the trait instead.
IPC Request::PluginList and Response::PluginList removed; Submenu
and PluginAction stay (route to Provider trait methods now).
owlry -d / --daemon flag added as the future daemon entry point; the
old owlryd binary is still produced from owlry-core for Phase 1
compatibility but will fold into the single binary in task #2.
Workspace shrinks from 5 members to 2. Tests: 142 passed.
LOC: -13,796 / +273 (net -13,523).
Tasks #3, #4, #5 complete.
Comprehensive plan covering all 5 phases of the v2 restructure:
decisions log, target shape, CLI layout, feature naming, conversion
notes, breaking changes, deferred questions, and acceptance checklist.
This document is the source of truth for the v2 work; future sessions
read this first to recover context.

BREAKING: Restructure from monolithic binary to modular plugin ecosystem
Architecture changes:
- Convert to Cargo workspace with crates/ directory
- Create owlry-plugin-api crate with ABI-stable interface (abi_stable)
- Move core binary to crates/owlry/
- Extract providers to native plugin crates (13 plugins)
- Add owlry-lua crate for Lua plugin runtime
Plugin system:
- Plugins loaded from /usr/lib/owlry/plugins/*.so
- Widget providers refresh automatically (universal, not hardcoded)
- Per-plugin config via [plugins.<name>] sections in config.toml
- Backwards compatible with [providers] config format
New features:
- just install-local: build and install core + all plugins
- Plugin config: weather and pomodoro read from [plugins.*]
- HostAPI for plugins: notifications, logging
Documentation:
- Update README with new package structure
- Add docs/PLUGINS.md with all plugin documentation
- Add docs/PLUGIN_DEVELOPMENT.md
