dispatches do no work on hyprland 0.55

[tomjemmett]

I've noticed that hyprland-autoname-workspaces is not working for me since I moved to hyprland 0.55 (someone else has already reported this: hyprland-community/hyprland-autoname-workspaces#137).

While trying to debug that, everything seems to be running fine, it's raising no errors or warnings when it tries to rename workspaces.

When I dug down to this package, I can see hyprland-autoname-workspaces would be triggering

hyprland-rs/src/dispatch.rs

Lines 829 to 834 in 1433cd9

	RenameWorkspace(id, name) => {
	format!(
	"renameworkspace{sep}{id} {}",
	name.unwrap_or(&id.to_string())
	)
	}

but the syntax in hyprland 0.55 is now:

hyprctl dispatch 'hl.dsp.workspace.rename({ workspace=1, name="test" })'

this is going to affect all of the dispatches I assume?

I assume yes, someone's already filed a PR to deal with this. I no longer use hyprland so I don't know how the new dispatchers work.

I respect the work and effort you put into hyprland-rs. But, do you still want to maintain this crate when you personally don't use hyprland anymore? Hopefully this question is not too much off-topic.

Well people use it, so someone's gotta do it, although I've been barely maintaining. And no one has stepped up to take over maintaining, one person did at one point, but they gave up in the end. Though I might go back to using hyprland, but idk if I'll actually use hyprland-rs even if we do.
