Many, many thanks to all contributors! As of now, 20 of the modules are from various contributors (!), and only 16 from myself.
bumblebee-status is a modular, theme-able status line generator for the i3 window manager.
Focus is on:
- Ease of use (no configuration files!)
- Theme support
- Extensibility (of course...)
I hope you like it and appreciate any kind of feedback: Bug reports, Feature requests, etc. :)
Thanks a lot!
Supported Python versions: 2.7, 3.3, 3.4, 3.5, 3.6
Explicitly unsupported Python versions: 3.2 (missing unicode literals)
See the wiki for documentation.
Other resources:
$ git clone git://github.com/tobi-wan-kenobi/bumblebee-status
Next, open your i3wm configuration and modify the status_command for your i3bar like this:
bar {
status_command = <path to bumblebee-status/bumblebee-status> -m <list of modules> -p <list of module parameters> -t <theme>
}
You can retrieve a list of modules and themes by entering:
$ cd bumblebee-status
$ ./bumblebee-status -l themes
$ ./bumblebee-status -l modules
To change the update interval, use:
$ ./bumblebee-status -m <list of modules> -p interval=<interval in seconds>
As a simple example, this is what my i3 configuration looks like:
bar {
font pango:Inconsolata 10
position top
tray_output none
status_command ~/.i3/bumblebee-status/bumblebee-status -m nic disk:root cpu memory battery date time pasink pasource dnf -p root.path=/ time.format="%H:%M CW %V" date.format="%a, %b %d %Y" -t solarized-powerline
}
Restart i3wm and - that's it!
If errors occur, you should see them in the i3bar itself. If that does not work, or you need more information for troubleshooting, you can activate a debug log using the -d or --debug switch:
$ ./bumblebee-status -d -m <list of modules>
This will create a file called debug.log in the same directory as the executable bumblebee-status.
Modules and commandline utilities are only required for modules, the core itself has no external dependencies at all.
