Used In Images
Part of /ov-layers:sway-desktop composition.
Chrome Lifecycle in Sway
Chrome is launched by Sway's exec directive (autostart) via chrome-wrapper. It is not a supervisord service -- Sway owns the Chrome process. This means:
- Autostart: Chrome starts when Sway starts (via
exec chrome-wrapperin sway config). - Crashes/exits: Chrome does not auto-restart. If Chrome exits, it must be relaunched manually.
- Manual restart: Use
ov test wl sway exec <image> chrome-wrapperto relaunch Chrome from outside the container. Do not useov shellwith bareswaymsg-- the shell may lack the correctSWAYSOCKpath. - On-demand launch: The
browser-openhelper auto-launches Chrome if it's not running (see/ov-layers:chromefor details).
