Omarchy

ProbeLabs65 findings · 95 requirements

A proof layer — requirements, tests and verified fixes — for two of Omarchy's subsystems: the application menu (launcher scripts, QML model, JSONC config, search and selection) and the lock screen (lock scripts, QML, PAM authentication). Scope is deliberately limited to those components of omacom/omarchy; the rest of the distribution is not covered.

RFE : omarchy-webapp-install modifications for seperate chromium profile datarevision 1 · captured 2026-10-04 11:35 UTC via poll

Tweaking on my omarchy desktop this morning.

I know I could probably fork and submit this back to you via github but I'm being lazy this morning and in a rush.

I've modified the omarchy-webapp-install script like so :
~~~
$ diff omarchy-webapp-install omarchy-webapp-install.orig
8d7
< PROFILE=$(gum input --prompt "Separate Profile?> " --placeholder "Leave Blank for shared profile")
13d11
< PROFILE="$4"
24,32d21
< # GEL
< if [ "$PROFILE" != "" ]; then
< USER_DATA_DIR="$HOME/.cache/ChromiumInstances/$APP_NAME"
< mkdir -p "$USER_DATA_DIR"
< USER_DATA_DIR="--user-data-dir=${USER_DATA_DIR}"
< else
< # else set to null
< USER_DATA_DIR=""
< fi
46c35
< Exec=omarchy-launch-webapp $APP_URL $USER_DATA_DIR
---
> Exec=omarchy-launch-webapp $APP_URL
~~~

This adds a 4th setup question, which if its anything but blank will create a seperate data directory to use for that web app under $HOME/.cache/ChromiumInstances/"

And then creates the resulting app.desktop file like so:
~~~
…/share/applications ❯ cat Facebook\ test.desktop
[Desktop Entry]
Version=1.0
Name=Facebook test
Comment=Facebook test
Exec=omarchy-launch-webapp https://facebook.com --user-data-dir=/home/glaw/.cache/ChromiumInstances/Facebook test
Terminal=false
Type=Application
Icon=/home/glaw/.local/share/applications/icons/Facebook test.png
StartupNotify=true
~~~

Usage scenario - I have 2 separate facebook profiles, one for my personal and one for a group that I administer that having 2 of the omarcy web apps work independently of one another would be useful.
