What would you like to be added?

• Title
• As suggested in A new module for the ags bar #219

How will it help

• Makes left side of bar not too empty

[clsty]

My personal suggestion:
If ~/.cache/ags/user/barcmd.sh exists, then execute it and show its output every $(cat ~/.cache/ags/user/barcmd-period.txt) (default 5000) miliseconds.

By supporting this, user will be able to custom this area.

And it could be even more powerful:

• If ~/.cache/ags/user/barcmd-leftclick.sh exists, then execute it when leftclick on it.
• If ~/.cache/ags/user/barcmd-rightclick.sh exists, then execute it when rightclick on it.
• ...

Thanks for the suggestion
Fine I guess, though I don't really care about that. The point of using ags is to not use polling shell scripts.

[end-4]

the way i'll be implementing polls but doesn't need a script, just a command

About city for weather, as mentioned before, curl ipinfo.io returns a false city as for my test.
I suggest that we could read an environment variable such as $AGS_WEATHER_CITY to override.

@end-4 However I still want this one because I'm familiar with bash scripting lol

I will not submit such code to this repo of course, but I want to use it in my own version of config, and I can add document to the wiki on how to do it (or maybe you could add this document).

[end-4]

oops then

[end-4]

@clsty try it
if you're happy close the issue
and it would be nice if you can add docs too

[clsty]

Very nice. Would you please allow customed polling period (and default 5000 ms when not customed)?
I suggest to read it from ${GLib.get_home_dir()}/.cache/ags/user/scripts/custom-module-period.txt when it exists, and use 5000 when it does not exists.

[end-4]

done

[clsty]

Thank you very much. I have documented them.
