Hi,
You seem to be doing everything right with the library.
The problem is most likely that you are using a version of i3 that does
not emit the `focus` events. This feature was added in version 4.8.
Check your version with `i3 --version` and make sure it is up to date.

I am trying to register for a window::focus event, but am not seeing
the events come in.
I can register for window::new and for workspace::focus just fine.
The code snippet I am using to register is:
*from gi.repository import i3ipc*
**
*# Create the Connection object that can be used to send commands and
subscribe*
*# to events.*
*conn = i3ipc.Connection()*
**
*conn.on('window::focus', on_window_focus)*
I did turn on i3 debug and I did notice the following (this occurs
when I call conn.on):
08/29/2014 04:53:25 PM - ipc.c:add_subscription:744 - should add
subscription to extra 0xef61a0, sub window
08/29/2014 04:53:25 PM - ipc.c:add_subscription:754 - client is now
subscribed to:
08/29/2014 04:53:25 PM - ipc.c:add_subscription:756 - event window
08/29/2014 04:53:25 PM - ipc.c:add_subscription:757 - (done)
Not sure how to interpret that debug info, but I think its telling me
that I need to subscribe for window::focus differently.
Again, I am able to register for workspace::focus just fine (and
receive workspace focus events).
*conn.on('workspace::focus', on_workspace_focus)*
