Note that _rivercarro_ use pkgconfig for the `river-layout-v3`
protocol so if you did not installed _river_ system wide you need to
set `PKG_CONFIG_PATH` in your shell rc, e.g.

    export PKG_CONFIG_PATH="$HOME/.local/share/pkgconfig"

## Usage

Works exactly as _rivertile_, you can just replace _rivertile_ name by

  <description summary="let clients propose view positions and dimensions">
    This protocol specifies a way for clients to propose arbitrary positions
    and dimensions for a set of views on a specific output of a compositor
    through the river_layout_v3 object.

    Layouts are a strictly linear list of views, the position and dimensions
    of which are supplied by the client. Any complex underlying data structure
    a client may use when generating the layout is lost in transmission. This
    is an intentional limitation.

    Additionally, this protocol allows the compositor to deliver arbitrary
    user-provided commands associated with a layout to clients. A client
    may use these commands to implement runtime configuration/control, or
    may ignore them entirely. How the user provides these commands to the
    compositor is not specified by this protocol and left to compositor policy.

    Warning! The protocol described in this file is currently in the
    testing phase. Backward compatible changes may be added together with
    the corresponding interface version bump. Backward incompatible changes
    can only be done by creating a new major version of the extension.

        All layout related communication is done through this interface.

        The namespace is used by the compositor to decide which river_layout_v3
        object will receive layout demands for the output.

        The namespace is required to be be unique per-output. Furthermore,
        two separate clients may not share a namespace on separate outputs. If
        these conditions are not upheld, the the namespace_in_use event will
        be sent directly after creation of the river_layout_v3 object.

    <event name="layout_demand">
      <description summary="the compositor requires a layout">
        The compositor sends this event to inform the client that it requires a
        layout for a set of views.

        The usable width and height indicate the space in which the client
        can safely position views without interfering with desktop widgets
        such as panels.

        The serial of this event is used to identify subsequent requests as
        belonging to this layout demand. Beware that the client might need
        to handle multiple layout demands at the same time.

        The server will ignore responses to all but the most recent layout
        demand. Thus, clients are only required to respond to the most recent
        layout_demand received. If a newer layout_demand is received before
        the client has finished responding to an old demand, the client should
        abort work on the old demand as any further work would be wasted.

        This request proposes a size and position for a view in the layout demand

        A client must send this request for every view that is part of the
        layout demand. The number of views in the layout is given by the
        view_count argument of the layout_demand event. Pushing too many or
        too few view dimensions is a protocol error.

        The x and y coordinates are relative to the usable area of the output,

        This request indicates that the client is done pushing dimensions
        and the compositor may apply the layout. This completes the layout
        demand with matching serial, any other requests sent with the serial
        are a protocol error.

        The layout_name argument is a user-facing name or short description
        of the layout that is being committed. The compositor may for example
        display this on a status bar, though what exactly is done with it is
        left to the compositor's discretion.

        The compositor is free to use this proposed layout however it chooses,
        including ignoring it.

        This event informs the client of a command sent to it by the user.

        The semantic meaning of the command is left for the client to
        decide. It is also free to ignore it entirely if it so chooses.

        A layout_demand will be sent after this event if the compositor is
        currently using this layout object to arrange the output.
