Every module imports cleanup.nix (also exported as
homeManagerModules.cleanup), which
- puts steam-frame-nix-cleanup (install.sh cleanup) on PATH;
- runs `cleanup --orphans --quiet` after linkGeneration on every switch,
keeping what the configuration still uses (steamFrame.cleanup.keep, set
by the modules: debugger while steamvrDebugger is on, the Firefox desktop
profile's user.js while its fix applies); in a dry run it runs with
--dry-run;
- runs `cleanup --all` instead when Home Manager's `uninstall = true;` is
set (the manual uninstall route);
- removes links of older versions at paths Home Manager is about to own
before checkLinkTargets (steamFrame.cleanup.migrateLinks), which would
count as collisions otherwise.
install.sh cleanup gains --quiet (only actions, deferrals and warnings;
the header only when something is printed). The Jellyfin module's own
removal of the old shim copy goes: cleanup does it.
SteamOS's steamvr.service runs `rm -rf ~/.cache/SteamVR` on every SteamVR
start, which deletes vrwebhelper's browser profile and with it the
localStorage frame-controls kept its placements in, so they were lost on
every SteamVR restart and reboot.
steam-ui-patches: per-patch persistent state (`state = true`). The injector
keeps ~/.local/state/steam-frame-nix/ui-patches/<name>.json, seeds
window.__sfuiStore in a fresh page before the patch runs and writes the file
(atomically, on change, name-checked, max 64 KiB) when the page calls the
CDP binding __sfuiStoreSave.
frame-controls v5: placements saved there (v4 localStorage copy migrated
once, then removed). steam-close-button v8: "Steam hidden" saved there; a
restored hidden state hides Steam once if SteamVR already shows it when the
patch attaches (or first shows it before the patch sees Steam's frame).
README: "Changes outside Nix" lists the directory; install.sh uninstall
removes it.
steamFrame.dashboard.windowCurvature: the "Toggle Curvature" row of a
window's More Options menu becomes a control (click: curved -> flat,
flat -> stock; drag up/down with the laser: curvature relative to
SteamVR's stock curve, snapping to 0 and 1). The patch moves each frame's
curvature-origin node to stock distance / value in outgoing scene graphs;
per-window values live in the systemui page. Lookups by signature
("window-curvature" in signatures.json, incl. check-only anchors).
Shared method hooks (lib/hooks.js, passed by mkPatch as 4th argument):
one SendMessage wrapper for dashboard-windows (now VERSION 3) and
window-curvature instead of a chain of per-patch wrappers; legacy
wrappers on top are unwound.
Runtime patches no longer use webpack module ids or minified export
names, which change with every Steam UI build:
- modules/lib/finders.js: finder library (getWebpackRequire,
findModule/findExport by source text and shape, resolveAll with a
per-page cache, findFiberUp/findFiberDown/findInReactTree), installed
once per page as window.__sfuiFind.
- modules/lib/signatures.json: the signatures, per patch, shared by the
patches and the checker. lib/default.nix mkPatch wraps a patch
`(find, sigs, opts) => ...` with the library, its signatures and
options; exposed as steamFrame.uiPatches.lib.
- Keyboard patch (VERSION 10): layouts module, current/enabled layout
getters, arrow keys, VR keyboard status and VirtualKeyboardManager are
found by signature; if one doesn't match it reports which and leaves
Steam untouched. unpatch.js uses references the patch remembered.
The helper logs inject results when they change.
- launcher-menu launch/pinned-desktop use the library's fiber helpers;
launch no longer depends on the bar popup's window name.
- scripts/check-signatures.mjs (+ webpack-modules.mjs): extracts module
factories from the installed bundles without a browser and checks
every signature (found / ambiguous / missing, with module ids and
export names). README: "Finders and signatures", "After a Steam update".
steamFrame.uiPatches.patches registers JS patches that the
steam-ui-patches user service keeps injected into Steam's (or SteamVR's)
web UI over the local CEF DevTools ports and reverts when it stops.
steamFrame.launcherMenu uses it for the VR "+" menu: sort = true sorts
the programs by name; pinDesktop = "top" / "bottom" pins Desktop above or
below the scrolling list.
