swaygrab (1)
============
Name
----
swaygrab - Grab image data from the current sway session.
Synopsis
--------
'swaygrab' [options] [file]
Grabs pixels from an output and writes them to _file_. The image will be passed to
ImageMagick convert for processing.
Options
-------
*-h, --help*::
Show help message and quit.
*-c, \--capture*::
Captures multiple frames as video and passes them into ffmpeg. Continues until
you send SIGTERM (ctrl+c) to swaygrab.
*-o, \--output* <output>::
Use the specified _output_. If no output is defined the currently focused
output in sway will be used.
*-v, \--version*::
Print the version (of swaymsg) and quit.
*-s, --socket* <path>::
Use the specified socket path. Otherwise, swaymsg will ask sway where the
socket is (which is the value of $SWAYSOCK, then of $I3SOCK).
*-R, --rate* <rate>::
Specify a framerate (in frames per second). Used in combination with -c.
Default is 30. Must be an integer.
*-r, --raw*::
Instead of invoking ImageMagick or ffmpeg, dump raw rgba data to stdout.
*-f, --focused*::
Capture only the currently focused container.
Environment Variables
---------------------
swaygrab reads the following environment variables.
*SWAYGRAB_FFMPEG_OPTS*::
Pass additional arguments to FFmpeg when starting a capture.
Examples
--------
swaygrab output.png::
Grab the contents of currently focused output and write to output.png.
swaygrab -c -o HDMI-A-1 output.webm::
Capture a webm of HDMI-A-1.
SWAYGRAB_FFMPEG_OPTS="-f alsa -i pulse" swaygrab -c::
Capture the focused output and encode audio from the default recording
device.
