If you are looking for the public repository of splits, autosplitters and themes. They are located here

Features

• Split Tracking and Timing: Accurately track and time your speedruns with ease.
• Auto Splitter Support: Utilize Lua-based auto splitters to automate split timing based on in-game events.
• Customizable Themes: Personalize your timer's appearance by creating and applying custom themes.
• Flexible Configuration: Configure keybindings and various settings to suit your preferences.

Dependencies

LibreSplit requires the following dependencies on your system to compile:

• meson
• libgtk+-3.0
• x11
• libjansson
• luajit

Installation

Package manager (recommended)

• AUR/Arch based distro: libresplit-git

Manual install

git clone https://github.com/wins1ey/LibreSplit
cd LibreSplit
meson setup build -Dbuildtype=release
meson compile -C build
meson install -C build

Getting Started

1. Launch LibreSplit by executing the compiled binary. libresplit inside build

2. When first launched, LibreSplit will create the libresplit directory in your config directory. Auto splitters, splits and themes go in their respective folders inside.

3. The initial window is undecorated, but you can toggle window decorations by pressing the right Control key.

4. Control the timer using the following key presses:

   Key	Stopped Action	Started Action
   Spacebar	Start	Split
   Backspace	Reset	Stop
   Delete	Cancel	-

• The "Cancel" action resets the timer and decrements the attempt counter. A run reset before the start delay is automatically cancelled.

• To manually modify the current split, use the following key actions:

  Key	Action
  Page Up	Unsplit
  Page Down	Skip split

4. Customize keybindings by setting the values in com.github.wins1ey.libresplit path with gsettings.

   Key	Type	Description
   start-decorated	Boolean	Start with window decorations
   hide-cursor	Boolean	Hide cursor in window
   global-hotkeys	Boolean	Enables global hotkeys
   theme	String	Default theme name
   theme-variant	String	Default theme variant
   keybind-start-split	String	Start/split keybind
   keybind-stop-reset	String	Stop/Reset keybind
   keybind-cancel	String	Cancel keybind
   keybind-unsplit	String	Unsplit keybind
   keybind-skip-split	String	Skip split keybind
   keybind-toggle-decorations	String	Toggle window decorations keybind

Keybind strings should be parseable by gtk_accelerator_parse.

Auto Splitters

LibreSplit supports auto splitters written in Lua to automate split timing based on in-game events. Feel free to make your own, Documentation can be found here

Split Files

Split files in LibreSplit are stored as well-formed JSON. The split file must contain a main object. The following keys are optional:

Key	Value
title	Title string at top of window
start_delay	Non-negative delay until timer starts
world_record	Best known time
splits	Array of split objects
theme	Window theme
theme_variant	Window theme variant
width	Window width
height	Window height

Each split object within the splits array has the following keys:

Key	Value
title	Split title
time	Split time
best_time	Your best split time
best_segment	Your best segment time

Times are strings in HH:MM:SS.mmmmmm format

Themes

LibreSplit supports customizable themes, allowing you to personalize the timer's appearance. To create a theme:

1. Create a CSS stylesheet with your desired styles.
2. Place the stylesheet in the ~/.config/libresplit/themes/<name>/<name>.css directory. (If you have XDG_CONFIG_HOME env var pointing somewher else than .config it will be wherever it points to)
3. Set the global theme by modifying the theme value in gsettings.
4. Theme variants should follow the pattern <name>-<variant>.css.
5. Individual splits can apply their own themes by specifying a theme key in the main split object.

For a list of supported CSS properties, refer to the GtkCssProvider documentation.
