sbar

sbar is modular, asynchronous and configurable bar for dwm written in rust.

Features

• signal for updating each component
• yaml config file
• async
• per-component interval (and updating)

note: sbar is still in early development

Installation

By cargo

cargo install sbar

Usage

sbar [-c configpath] [-v] [h]

Configuration

create $HOME/.config/sbar/config.yaml

see default config as example

built-in modules: - exec - execute a command and return the result - memory - formatted memory - battery - monitor battery (take battery index as param, default is 0) - time - formatted time - echo - return all params joined together as string take params[0] as program name and params[1..len] as args - sep - return seperator (defined in config.yaml)

property - params is list of string - interval is how often to update each component, in second not putting in interval use default which is never update

Signal

put signal in wanted component's config

- name: echo
  params:
    - TEST
  signal:
    44

then to call it, do

kill -44 $(pidof sbar)

replace 44 with your signal

Todo

• [x] signal support for updating, etc
• [x] per component update interval and signal
• [ ] make code not bad
