prism-rofi 0.7.0

Prism Launcher shim for Rofi

This is a helper script that allows running Prism Launcher instances from a dmenu-compatible runner. Despite the name, it supports multiple runners.

Usage

1. Install the script, e.g. with pipx install prism-rofi. Further packaging is a WIP.

2. Add a nice keybind in your settings to run ~/.local/bin/prism-rofi with the right arguments.

3. Hit the button and enjoy.

Configuration

prism-rofi is configured entirely with command line arguments.

Changing the Prism Dir

By default, prism-rofi looks in $XDG_DATA_HOME/.PrismLauncher (which is usually ~/.local/share/PrismLauncher) for the Prism Launcher configuration file. You can override this with the --config-dir option. prism-rofi will then use the instance and icon directory settings specified in the configuration.

Changing the Runner

Don’t use Rofi? That’s fine. You can change the runner with the --runner option. You can also pass the path of the runner with --exe if your chosen runner isn’t on your $PATH.

Currently supported runners:

• rofi (wayland version)

• wofi (content warning: s*rceh*t link)

• fuzzel

Icons

This project includes a small number of project icons used by various modloaders. These are:

• The Fabric icon, used for Fabric instances

• The Minecraft Forge icon, used for legacy Forge instances

• The Quilt icon, used for Quilt instances

• The NeoForge icon, used for NeoForge instances

• The MultiMC grass icon as shipped by Prism, used for vanilla/unrecognised instances
