Yabai - function with arguments

[lukakemperle]

Hi there,
I would like to execute a function (yabai) with the argument living outside the karabiner.edn:

karabiner.edn:

{:des "b-mode" :rules [ :b-sim
  [:p "~/.config/yabai/actions grid"]
]}

~/.config/yabai/actions.sh:

function float() {
  yabai -m window --toggle float
}

function grid() {
  yabai -m window --grid 3:1:1:1:1:1
}

if [ "$1" == "float" ] ; then
  float
elif [ "$1" == "grid" ] ; then
  grid
fi

# /usr/local/bin/yabai

Could please someone enlighten me on what I'm doing wrong - executing file in the terminal with arguments works (eg. ./actions.sh grid).
Thank you!

@lukakemperle
I had the same problem until i figured out that Karabiner does not source my ~/.zshrc and so there is no yabai binary in PATH.
In order to fix it you can use full path to the location where your yabai binary lives

@hotsezus, thank you for the suggestion. -I currently use yabai in the template:

:templates {
:yabai "/usr/local/bin/yabai -m %s"
}

And the call it as [:##semicolon [:yabai "display --focus east || yabai -m display --focus recent"]]

Anyway, thank you & wish you a happy and productive 2024!
