kanshi
Heads up! This project has moved to SourceHut.
kanshi allows you to define output profiles that are automatically enabled and disabled on hotplug. For instance, this can be used to turn a laptop's internal screen off when docked.
This is a Wayland equivalent for tools like autorandr. kanshi can be used on Wayland compositors supporting the wlr-output-management protocol.

kanshiConfiguration file
Each output profile is delimited by brackets. It contains several output
directives (whose syntax is similar to sway-output(5)). A profile will be
enabled if all of the listed outputs are connected.
profile {
output LVDS-1 disable
output "Some Company ASDF 4242" mode 1600x900 position 0,0
}
profile {
output LVDS-1 enable scale 2
}
