# ROFI 1 rofi

## NAME

**rofi** - A window switcher, application launcher, ssh dialog, dmenu replacement and more

## SYNOPSIS

**rofi** [ -show *mode* ]|[ -dmenu ]|[ -e *msg* ] [ CONFIGURATION ]


## DESCRIPTION

**rofi** is an X11 pop-up window switcher, run dialog, dmenu replacement, and more. It focuses on
being fast to use and have minimal distraction. It supports keyboard and mouse navigation, type to
filter, tokenized search and more.


## USAGE

**rofi**'s main functionality is to assist in your workflow, allowing you to quickly switch
between windows, start applications or log into a remote machine via `ssh`.
There are different *modi* for different types of actions.
**rofi** is a standalone application and should not be integrated into scripts.
For integration into scripts it has a special mode that functions as a
(drop-in) replacement for **dmenu(1)**. See emulating dmenu below.

### Running rofi

To launch **rofi** directly in a certain mode, specify a mode with `rofi -show <mode>`.
To show the `run` dialog:

    rofi -show run

### Emulating dmenu

**rofi** can emulate **dmenu(1)** (a dynamic menu for X11) when launched with the `-dmenu` flag.

For more information see **rofi-dmenu(5)**.

### Display Error message

**rofi** error dialog can also be called from the command line.

    rofi -e "my message"

Markup support can be enabled, see CONFIGURATION options.

## CONFIGURATION

There are currently three methods of setting configuration options (evaluated in order below):

 * System configuration file  (for example `/etc/rofi.rasi`).
   It first checks `XDG_CONFIG_DIRS`, and then `SYSCONFDIR` (that is passed at compile time).
   It loads the first config file it finds, it does not merge multiple system configuration files.
 * Rasi theme file: The new *theme* format can be used to set configuration values.
 * Command-line options: Arguments passed to **rofi**.

To get a template config file, run: `rofi -dump-config > config.rasi`

This will contain (commented) all current configuration options, modified options are uncommented.

The configuration system supports the following types:

 * string
 * integer (signed and unsigned)
 * char
 * boolean
 * lists

For the syntax of these options, see the **rofi-theme(5)** manpage.

For use on the command line, Boolean options have a non-default command-line
syntax. Example to enable option X:

    -X

To disable option X:

    -no-X

Below is a list of the most important options:

### General

`-help`

The help option shows the full list of command-line options and the current set values.
These include dynamic (run-time generated) options.

`-version`

Show the **rofi** version and exit.

`-dump-config`

Dump the current active configuration, in rasi format, to stdout and exit.
Information about the rasi format can be found in the **rofi-theme(5)** manpage.

`-dump-theme`

Dump the current active theme, in rasi format, to stdout and exit.

`-rasi-validate` *filename*

Try to parse the file and return 0 when successful, non-zero when failed.

`-threads` *num*

Specify the number of threads **rofi** should use:

  * 0: Autodetect the number of supported hardware threads.
  * 1: Disable threading
  * 2..n: Specify the maximum number of threads to use in the thread pool.

    Default:  Autodetect

`-display` *display*

The X server to contact. Default is `$DISPLAY`.

`-dmenu`

Run **rofi** in dmenu mode. This allows for interactive scripts.
In `dmenu` mode, **rofi** reads from STDIN, and output to STDOUT.
A simple example, displaying three pre-defined options:

    echo -e "Option #1\nOption #2\nOption #3" | rofi -dmenu

Or get the options from a script:

    ~/my_script.sh | rofi -dmenu

`-show` *mode*

Open **rofi** in a certain mode. Available modes are `window`, `run`, `drun`, `ssh`, `combi`.
The special argument `keys` can be used to open a searchable list of supported key bindings
(see *KEY BINDINGS*)

To show the run-dialog:

    rofi -show run

If `-show` is the last option passed to rofi, the first enabled modi is shown.

`-modi` *mode1,mode2*

Specify an ordered, comma-separated list of modes to enable.
Enabled modes can be changed at runtime. Default key is `Ctrl+Tab`.
If no modes are specified, all configured modes will be enabled.
To only show the `run` and `ssh` launcher:

    rofi -modi "run,ssh" -show run

Custom modes can be added using the internal `script` mode. Each such mode has two parameters:

    <name>:<script>

Example: Have a mode called 'Workspaces' using the `i3_switch_workspaces.sh` script:

    rofi -modi "window,run,ssh,Workspaces:i3_switch_workspaces.sh" -show Workspaces

Notes: The i3 window manager dislikes commas in the command when specifying an exec command.
For that case, `#` can be used as a separator.

**TIP**: The name is allowed to contain spaces:

    rofi -modi "My File Browser:fb.sh" -show "My File Browser"

`-case-sensitive`

Start in case-sensitive mode.
This option can be changed at run-time using the `-kb-toggle-case-sensitivity` key binding.

`-cycle`

Cycle through the result list. Default is 'true'.

`-filter` *filter*

Filter the list by setting text in input bar to *filter*

`-config` *filename*

Load an alternative configuration file.

`-cache-dir` *filename*

Directory that is used to place temporary files, like history.

`-scroll-method` *method*

Select the scrolling method. 0: Per page, 1: continuous.

`-normalize-match`

Normalize the string before matching, so `o` will match `ö`, and `é` matches `e`.  
This is not a perfect implementation, but works. For now, it disables highlighting of the matched part.

`-no-lazy-grab`

Disables lazy grab, this forces the keyboard being grabbed before gui is shown.

`-no-plugins`

Disable plugin loading.

`-plugin-path` *directory*

Specify the directory where **rofi** should look for plugins.

`-show-icons`

Show application icons in `drun` and `window` modes.

`-icon-theme`

Specify icon theme to be used.
If not specified default theme from DE is used, *Adwaita* and *gnome* themes act as
fallback themes.

`-application-fallback-icon`

Specify an icon to be used when the application icon in run/drun are not yet loaded or is not available.

`-markup`

Use Pango markup to format output wherever possible.

`-normal-window`

Make **rofi** react like a normal application window. Useful for scripts like Clerk that are basically an application.

`-[no-]steal-focus`

Make rofi steal focus on launch and restore close to window that held it when launched.

### Matching

`-matching` *method*

Specify the matching algorithm used.
Currently, the following methods are supported:

* **normal**: match the int string
* **regex**: match a regex input
* **glob**: match a glob pattern
* **fuzzy**: do a fuzzy match
* **prefix**: match prefix

   Default: *normal*

Note: glob matching might be slow for larger lists

`-tokenize`

Tokenize the input.

`-drun-categories` *category1*,*category2*

Only show desktop files that are present in the listed categories.

`-drun-match-fields` *field1*,*field2*,...

When using `drun`, match only with the specified Desktop entry fields.
The different fields are:

* **name**: the application's name
* **generic**: the application's generic name
* **exec**: the application's  executable
* **categories**: the application's categories
* **comment**: the application comment
* **all**: all the above

    Default: *name,generic,exec,categories,keywords*

`-drun-display-format`

The format string for the `drun` dialog:

* **name**: the application's name
* **generic**: the application's generic name
* **exec**: the application's  executable
* **categories**: the application's categories
* **comment**: the application comment

Pango markup can be used to formatting the output.

    Default: {name} [<span weight='light' size='small'><i>({generic})</i></span>]

Note: Only fields enabled in `-drun-match-fields` can be used in the format string.

`-[no-]drun-show-actions`

Show actions present in the Desktop files.

    Default: false

`-window-match-fields` *field1*,*field2*,...

When using window mode, match only with the specified fields.
The different fields are:

* **title**: window's title
* **class**: window's class
* **role**: window's role
* **name**: window's name
* **desktop**: window's current desktop
* **all**: all the above

    Default: *all*

`-matching-negate-char` *char*

Set the character used to negate the query (i.e. if it does **not** match the next keyword).
Set to '\x0' to disable.

    Default: '-'


### Layout and Theming

**IMPORTANT:**
  In newer **rofi** releases, all the theming options have been moved into the new theme format. They are no longer normal
  **rofi** options that can be passed directly on the command line (there are too many).
  Small snippets can be passed on the command line: `rofi -theme-str 'window {width: 50%;}'` to override a single
  setting. They are merged into the current theme.
  They can also be appended at the end of the **rofi** config file to override parts of the theme.

Most of the following options are **deprecated** and should not be used. Please use the new theme format to customize
**rofi**. More information about the new format can be found in the **rofi-theme(5)** manpage.

`-location`

Specify where the window should be located. The numbers map to the following locations on screen:

      1 2 3
      8 0 4
      7 6 5

Default: *0*

`-fixed-num-lines`

Keep a fixed number of visible lines. 

`-sidebar-mode`

Open in sidebar-mode. In this mode, a list of all enabled modes is shown at the bottom.
(See `-modi` option)
To show sidebar, use:

    rofi -show run -sidebar-mode 

`-hover-select`

Automatically select the entry the mouse is hovering over. This option is best combined with custom mouse bindings.
To utilize hover-select and accept an entry in a single click, use:

    rofi -show run -hover-select -me-select-entry '' -me-accept-entry MousePrimary

`-eh` *number*

Set row height (in chars)
Default: *1*

`-auto-select`

When one entry is left, automatically select it.

`-m` *num*

`-m` *name*

`-monitor` *num*

`-monitor` *name*

Select monitor to display **rofi** on.
It accepts as input: *primary* (if primary output is set), the *xrandr* output name, or integer number (in order of
detection). Negative numbers are handled differently:

 *  **-1**: the currently focused monitor.
 *  **-2**: the currently focused window (that is, **rofi** will be displayed on top of the focused window).
 *  **-3**: Position of mouse (overrides the location setting to get normal context menu
    behavior.)
 *  **-4**: the monitor with the focused window.
 *  **-5**: the monitor that shows the mouse pointer.

    Default: *-5*

See `rofi -h` output for the detected monitors, their position, and size.


`-theme` *filename*

Path to the new theme file format. This overrides the old theme settings.

`-theme-str` *string*

Allow theme parts to be specified on the command line as an override.

For example:

    rofi -theme-str '#window { fullscreen: true; }'

This option can be specified multiple times.
This is now the method to tweak the theme via the command line.

`-dpi`  *number*

Override the default DPI setting.

* If set to `0`, it tries to auto-detect based on X11 screen size (similar to i3 and GTK).
* If set to `1`, it tries to auto-detect based on the size of the monitor that **rofi** is displayed on (similar to latest Qt 5).

`-selected-row` *selected row*

Select a certain row.

Default: *0*

### PATTERN setting

`-terminal`

Specify which terminal to start.

    rofi -terminal xterm

Pattern: *{terminal}*

Default: *x-terminal-emulator*

`-ssh-client` *client*

Override the used `ssh` client.

Pattern: *{ssh-client}*

Default: *ssh*

### SSH settings

`-ssh-command` *cmd*

Set the command to execute when starting an ssh session.
The pattern *{host}* is replaced by the selected ssh entry.

Pattern: *{ssh-client}*

Default: *{terminal} -e {ssh-client} {host}*

`-parse-hosts`

Parse the `/etc/hosts` file for entries.

Default: *disabled*

`-parse-known-hosts`

### Window switcher settings

`-window-format` *format*

Format what is being displayed for windows.

*format*: {field[:len]}

*field*:

 * **w**: desktop name
 * **t**: title of window
 * **n**: name
 * **r**: role
 * **c**: class

*len*: maximum field length (0 for auto-size). If length and window *width* are negative, field length is *width - len*.  
If length is positive, the entry will be truncated or padded to fill that length.


default: {w}  {c}   {t}

`-window-command` *cmd*

Set command to execute on selected window for an alt action (`-kb-accept-alt`).
See *PATTERN*.

Default: *"wmctrl -i -R {window}"*


`-window-thumbnail`

Show window thumbnail (if available) as icon in the window switcher.


You can stop rofi from exiting when closing a window (allowing multiple to be closed in a row).

```css
configuration {
  window {
      close-on-delete: false;
  }
}
```

### Combi settings

`-combi-modi` *mode1*,*mode2*

For syntax to `-combi-modi`, see `-modi`.
To get one merge view, of `window`,`run`, and `ssh`:

    rofi -show combi -combi-modi "window,run,ssh" -modi combi

**NOTE**: The i3 window manager dislikes commas in the command when specifying an exec command.
For that case, `#` can be used as a separator.

### History and Sorting

`-disable-history`
`-no-disable-history` (re-enable history)

Disable history

`-sort` to enable
`-no-sort` to disable

Enable, disable sorting.
This setting can be changed at runtime (see `-kb-toggle-sort`).

      /** Directory the file browser starts in. */
      directory: "/some/directory";
      /**
        * Sorting method. Can be set to:
        *   - "name"
        *   - "mtime" (modification time)
        *   - "atime" (access time)
        *   - "ctime" (change time)
        */

`-drun-url-launcher` *command*

Command to open a Desktop Entry that is a Link.

`-pid` *path*

Make **rofi** create a pid file and check this on startup. The pid file prevents multiple **rofi** instances from running simultaneously. This is useful when running **rofi** from a key-binding daemon.

`-replace`

If rofi is already running, based on pid file, try to kill that instance.

`-display-{mode}` *string*

Set the name to use for mode. This is used as prompt and in combi-browser.

  * `{host}`: the host to connect to
  * `{terminal}`: the configured terminal (see -terminal)
  * `{ssh-client}`: the configured ssh client (see -ssh-client)
  * `{cmd}`: the command to execute
  * `{window}`: the window ID of the selected window (in `window-command`)

This list might not be complete, to get a full list of all key bindings
supported in your rofi, see `rofi -h`. The options starting with `-kb` are keybindings.

Key bindings can be modified using the configuration systems. Multiple keys can be bound
to one action by comma separating them. For example `-kb-primary-paste "Conctrol+v,Insert"`

To get a searchable list of key bindings, run `rofi -show keys`.

A key binding starting with `!` will act when all keys have been released.

You can bind certain events to key-actions:

### Timeout

You can configure an action to be taken when rofi has not been interacted
with for a certain amount of seconds. You can specify a keybinding to trigger
after X seconds.

```css
configuration {
  timeout {
      delay:  15;
      action: "kb-cancel";
  }
}
```

### Input change

When the input of the textbox changes:

```css
configuration {
  inputchange {
      action: "kb-row-first";
  }
}
```

For a full list of bindings, see the **rofi-keys(5)** manpage.

## Available Modi

### window

Show a list of all the windows and allow switching between them.
Pressing the `delete-entry` binding (`shift-delete`) will close the window.
Pressing the `accept-custom` binding (`control-enter` or `shift-enter`) will run a command on the window.
(See option `window-command` );

If there is no match, it will try to launch the input.

### windowcd

Shows a list of the windows on the current desktop and allows switching between them.
Pressing the `delete-entry` binding (`shift-delete`) will kill the window.
Pressing the `accept-custom` binding (`control-enter` or `shift-enter`) will run a command on the window.
(See option `window-command` );

If there is no match, it will try to launch the input.

### run

Shows a list of executables in `$PATH` and can launch them (optional in a terminal).
Pressing the `delete-entry` binding (`shift-delete`) will remove this entry from the run history.
Pressing the `accept-custom` binding (`control-enter`) will run the command as entered in the entry box.
Pressing the `accept-alt` binding (`shift-enter`) will run the command in a terminal.

When pressing the `mode-complete` binding (`Control-l`), you can use the File Browser mode to launch the application
with a file as the first argument.

### drun

Same as the **run** launches, but the list is created from the installed desktop files. It automatically launches them
in a terminal if specified in the Desktop File.
Pressing the `delete-entry` binding (`shift-delete`) will remove this entry from the run history.
Pressing the `accept-custom` binding (`control-enter`) will run the command as entered in the entry box.
Pressing the `accept-alt` binding (`shift-enter`) will run the command in a terminal.

When pressing the `mode-complete` binding (`Control-l`), you can use the File Browser mode to launch the application
passing a file as argument if specified in the desktop file.


The DRUN mode tries to follow the [XDG Desktop Entry
Specification](https://freedesktop.org/wiki/Specifications/desktop-entry-spec/) and should be compatible with
applications using this standard.  Some applications create invalid desktop files, **rofi** will discard these entries.
See the debugging section for more info on DRUN mode, this will print why desktop files are
discarded.

There are two advanced options to tweak the behaviour:

```css
configuration {
   drun {
      /** Parse user desktop files. */
      parse-user:   true;
      /** Parse system desktop files. */
      parse-system: false;
   }
}
```



### ssh

Shows a list of SSH targets based on your `ssh` config file, and allows to quickly `ssh` into them.

### keys

Shows a searchable list of key bindings.

### script

Allows custom scripted Modi to be added, see the **rofi-script(5)** manpage for more information.

### combi

Combines multiple modi in one list. Specify which modi are included with the `-combi-modi` option.

When using the combi mode, a *!bang* can be used to filter the results by modi.
All modi that match the bang as a prefix are included.
For example, say you have specified `-combi-modi run,window,windowcd`. If your
query begins with the bang `!w`, only results from the `window` and `windowcd`
modi are shown, even if the rest of the input text would match results from `run`.

If no match, the input is handled by the first combined modi.

## FAQ

### The text in the window switcher is not nicely aligned.

Try using a mono-space font.

### The window is completely black.

Check quotes used on the command-line: you might have used `“` ("smart quotes") instead of `"` ("machine quotes").

### What does the icon in the top right show?

The indicator shows:

    ` ` Case insensitive and no sorting.
    `-` Case sensitivity enabled, no sorting.
    `+` Case insensitive and Sorting enabled
    `±` Sorting and Case sensitivity enabled"

## EXAMPLES

Some basic usage examples of **rofi**:

Show the run dialog:

    rofi -modi run -show run

Show the run dialog, and allow switching to Desktop File run dialog (`drun`):

    rofi -modi run,drun -show run

Combine the run and Desktop File run dialog (`drun`):

    rofi -modi combi -show combi -combi-modi run,drun

Combine the run and Desktop File run dialog (`drun`), and allow switching to window switcher:

    rofi -modi combi,window -show combi -combi-modi run,drun

Pop up a text message claiming that this is the end:

    rofi -e "This is the end"

Pop up a text message in red, bold font claiming that this is still the end:

    rofi -e "<span color='red'><b>This is still the end</b></span>" -markup

Show all key bindings:

    rofi -show keys

Use `qalc` to get a simple calculator in **rofi**:

     rofi -show calc -modi "calc:qalc +u8 -nocurrencies"

## i3

In [i3](http://i3wm.org/) you want to bind **rofi** to be launched on key release. Otherwise, it cannot grab the keyboard.
See also the i3 [manual](http://i3wm.org/docs/userguide.html):

Some tools (such as `import` or `xdotool`) might be unable to run upon a KeyPress event, because the keyboard/pointer is
still grabbed. For these situations, the `--release` flag can be used, as it will execute the command after the keys have
been released.

## DEBUGGING

To debug, it is smart to first try disabling your custom configuration:
`-no-config`

Disable parsing of configuration. This runs rofi in *stock* mode.

If you run custom C plugins, you can disable them using:

`-no-plugins`

Disables the loading of plugins.

To further debug the plugin, you can get a trace with (lots of) debug information.  This debug output can be enabled for
multiple parts in rofi using the glib debug framework. Debug domains can be enabled by setting the G_MESSAGES_DEBUG
environment variable. At the time of creation of this page, the following debug domains exist:

 * all: Show debug information from all domains.
 * X11Helper: The X11 Helper functions.
 * View: The main window view functions.
