Layer-shell keyboard grab is only confirmed by the compositor at map
time. The previous realize-time grab_focus() could fire before the
compositor assigned keyboard input, causing intermittent input loss.
GTK4 does not reliably read /etc/xdg/gtk-4.0/settings.ini under greetd
without a settings daemon, falling back to default blue accent instead
of Colloid-Grey-Dark-Catppuccin.
Greeter used hardcoded colors (#1a1a2e, white, #ff6b6b) instead of
GTK theme variables, breaking theme consistency across the ecosystem.
Now uses @theme_bg_color, @theme_fg_color, @error_color etc. —
matching moonlock and moonset.
- Add 30s timeout with SIGKILL to power actions (adapted from moonset)
- Add 500ms minimum login response time against timing enumeration
- Cache GREETD_SOCK in GreeterState at startup
- Add [profile.release] with LTO, codegen-units=1, strip
- Add compressed="true" to GResource CSS/SVG entries
- Add SYNC comments to duplicated blur/background functions
- Add nix dependency for signal handling in power timeout
README: replace LD_PRELOAD with MOONGREET_NO_LAYER_SHELL env var,
add missing features (GPU blur, journal logging, password wiping).
build.rs: remove wallpaper.jpg reference.
moongreet.toml: correct gtk-theme to Colloid-Grey-Dark-Catppuccin.
- Add zeroize dependency, wrap password in Zeroizing<String> from entry extraction
through to login_worker (prevents heap-resident plaintext)
- Add MAX_BLUR_DIMENSION (1920px) downscale before GPU blur to reduce 4K workload
- Wallpaper: use symlink_metadata + is_symlink rejection in greeter.rs and config.rs
- Avatar: add is_file() check, swap lookup order to ~/.face first (consistent with
moonlock/moonset)
- greetd errors: show generic fallback in UI, log raw PAM details at debug level only
- fprintd: validate device path prefix before creating D-Bus proxy
- Locale: cache detected locale via OnceLock (avoid repeated env/file reads)
paru reads .SRCINFO (not PKGBUILD) for version comparison during
sysupgrade. Without updating .SRCINFO, paru never detects upgrades
for PKGBUILD repository packages.
Colloid-Catppuccin theme loaded via ~/.config/gtk-4.0/gtk.css at
PRIORITY_USER (800) was overriding moongreet's PRIORITY_APPLICATION (600),
causing avatar to lose its circular border-radius.
- Use STYLE_PROVIDER_PRIORITY_USER for app CSS provider
- Replace border-radius: 50% with 9999px (GTK4 CSS percentage quirk)
- Include missed Cargo.lock and PKGBUILD updates from v0.6.0
Fingerprint auth was missing because moongreet rejected multi-stage
auth_message sequences from greetd. With pam_fprintd.so in the PAM
stack, greetd sends non-secret prompts for fingerprint and secret
prompts for password — moongreet now handles both in a loop.
- Replace single-pass auth with multi-stage auth_message loop
- fprintd D-Bus probe (gio::DBusProxy) for UI feedback only
- Fingerprint label shown when device available and fingers enrolled
- 60s socket timeout when fingerprint available (pam_fprintd scan time)
- Config option: [appearance] fingerprint-enabled (default: true)
- Fix: password entry focus loss after auth error (grab_focus while
widget was insensitive — now re-enable before grab_focus)
GskBlurNode samples pixels outside texture bounds as transparent,
causing visible darkening at wallpaper edges. Fix renders the texture
with 3x-sigma padding before blur, then clips back to original size.
Symmetric fix with moonset v0.7.1.
Wallpaper is installed by moonarch to /usr/share/moonarch/wallpaper.jpg.
Embedding a 374K JPEG in the binary was redundant. Without a wallpaper
file, GTK background color (Catppuccin Mocha base) shows through and
wallpaper-only windows on secondary monitors are skipped.
Replace unwrap() calls with match-based error handling that falls back
to eprintln — prevents panic when running outside a systemd session.
Consistent with moonlock's logging init pattern.
- Reject non-UTF-8 avatar paths early instead of passing empty string to GDK
- Log persistence write failures with warn! instead of silently discarding
- Reduce API surface: create_background_picture pub→fn
- Add boundary test for MAX_USERNAME_LENGTH and socket connect failure test
Address all findings from quality, performance, and security audits:
- Filter greetd error descriptions consistently (security)
- Re-enable power buttons after failed action (UX bug)
- Narrow TOCTOU window in avatar loading via symlink_metadata (security)
- Allow @ in usernames for LDAP compatibility
- Eliminate unnecessary Vec allocation in passwd parsing
- Remove dead i18n field, annotate retained-for-future struct fields
- Fix if/if→if/else and noisy test output in power.rs
Replace CPU blur (image crate + disk cache + async orchestration) with
GPU blur via GskBlurNode — symmetric with moonlock and moonset.
Removes ~15 transitive dependencies and ~200 lines of caching code.
First launch with blur blurs and saves to /var/cache/moongreet/.
Subsequent starts load the cached PNG directly. Cache invalidates
when wallpaper path, size, mtime, or sigma changes.
Gaussian blur applied at texture load time when `background-blur` is
set in the [appearance] section of moongreet.toml. Blur runs once,
result is shared across monitors.
- Rework load_background_texture(): use resources_lookup_data()/from_bytes()
for GResource path (no abort on missing resource), add 50 MB file size limit,
handle non-UTF-8 paths gracefully
- Filter error details to debug level only — warn! logs without internal details
to prevent system info leaking into journal
- Make debug logging opt-in via MOONGREET_DEBUG env var (default: Info)
- Truncate greetd error description in stale-session retry path using
MAX_GREETD_ERROR_LENGTH (matching show_greetd_error())
- Add 3 unit tests for load_background_texture edge cases
Wallpaper-only windows for secondary monitors were on Layer::Top — same
layer as the greeter window. Since they were created after the greeter,
they occluded the login UI, leaving only the wallpaper visible.
Replace env_logger file-based logging with systemd-journal-logger for
consistency with moonlock and native journalctl integration. Add debug-level
logging at all decision points: config loading, user/session detection,
avatar resolution, locale detection, IPC messages, login flow, and
persistence. No credentials are ever logged.
display_name() now returns only the first GECOS subfield (before comma)
instead of the full GECOS string with room numbers and phone extensions.
split_shell_words() returns None for trailing backslashes instead of
silently ignoring them.
Complete rewrite of the greetd greeter from Python/PyGObject to Rust/gtk4-rs
for consistency with moonset, single binary without Python runtime, and
improved security through Rust memory safety.
Modules: main, greeter, ipc, config, i18n, users, sessions, power
86 unit tests covering all modules including login_worker IPC flow.
Security hardening: shell-word splitting for exec_cmd, absolute path
validation for session binaries, session-name sanitization, absolute
loginctl path, atomic IPC writes.
Security:
- Fix path traversal in _save/_load_last_session by rejecting usernames
starting with dot (blocks '..' and hidden file creation)
- Add avatar file size limit (10 MB) to prevent DoS via large ~/.face
- Add session_name length validation on write (symmetric with read)
- Add payload size check to send_message (symmetric with recv_message)
- Set log level to INFO in production (was DEBUG)
Quality:
- Eliminate main-thread blocking on user switch: _cancel_pending_session
now sets a cancellation event and closes the socket instead of doing
blocking IPC. The login worker checks the event after each step.
- Move power actions (reboot/shutdown) to background threads
- Catch TimeoutExpired in addition to CalledProcessError for power actions
- Consolidate socket cleanup in _login_worker via finally block, remove
redundant _close_greetd_sock calls from error callbacks
- Fix _select_initial_user to return False for GLib.idle_add deregistration
- Fix context manager leak in resolve_wallpaper_path on exception
- Pass Config object to GreeterWindow instead of loading it twice
Die Regex VALID_THEME_NAME blockierte Theme-Namen mit '+' (z.B.
catppuccin-mocha-lavender-standard+default). Da GTK den Theme-Namen
intern über Standardverzeichnisse auflöst, ist eigene Validierung
unnötig und kontraproduktiv.
Nach fehlgeschlagenem Login (falsches Passwort) wurde die greetd-Session
nicht gecancelt — beim nächsten Versuch kam "a session is already being
configured". Jetzt wird cancel_session gesendet nach Auth-Fehler, und
bei create_session-Fehler wird einmal cancel + retry versucht.
Außerdem: GTK-Theme-Name und PKGBUILD-pkgver aktualisiert.
- ipc.py: !I (Big-Endian) → =I (Native Byte Order) für greetd-Protokoll
- Per-User GTK-Theme entfernt, stattdessen globales Theme aus moongreet.toml
- Last-Session pro User in /var/cache/moongreet/last-session/ speichern/laden
- PKGBUILD und install-Hook für last-session-Cache erweitert
Wenn moongreet crasht bevor Niri bereit ist, blieb eine offene
Niri-Session als greeter-User zurueck. Retry-Loop stellt sicher,
dass niri sich in jedem Fall beendet. Beispiel-Configs korrigiert
(moongreet braucht Niri als Compositor).
Gdk.Display.get_default() kann None zurueckgeben wenn der Compositor
noch nicht bereit ist. Vorher crashte moongreet mit TypeError, ohne
dass der Fehler irgendwo geloggt wurde. Display wird jetzt einmal
geholt, geprueft und an _register_icons/_load_css durchgereicht.
Logging geht nach /var/cache/moongreet/moongreet.log und stderr.
Moongreet ist ein reiner GTK4-Greeter ohne eigenen Compositor.
niri-greeter.kdl entfernt — der User konfiguriert seinen
Compositor selbst (regreet → moongreet tauschen).
