Usage

  • --ampm - display time in AM/PM format
  • --location STRING - pass a specific location to wttr.in
  • --main-indicator - decide which current_conditions key will be shown on waybar. defaults to temp_C
  • --date-format - defaults to %Y-%m-%d, formats the date next to the days. see reference
  • --hide-conditions - show a shorter descrpition next to each hour, like 7° Mist instead of 7° Mist, Overcast 81%, Sunshine 17%, Frost 15%
  • --fahrenheit - use fahrenheit instead of celsius
  • --vertical-view - shows the icon on the first line and temperature in a new line
  • --custom-indicator STRING - optional expression that will be shown instead of main indicator. current_conditions keys surrounded by {} can be used. For example, "{ICON}{temp_C}({FeelsLikeC})" will be transformed to "text":"🌧️0(-4)" in the output
  • --lang LANG - set language (currently en, pl or de; submit a PR to add yours)

e.g. wttrbar --date-format "%m/%d" --location Paris --hide-conditions

Icons

To display the weather icons correctly, you will need to have a font that supports emojis installed. The screenshot uses Noto Emoji, but you can use other fonts too.

Waybar configuration

Assuming wttrbar is in your path, it can be used like:

"custom/weather": {
    "format": "{} °",
    "tooltip": true,
    "interval": 3600,
    "exec": "wttrbar",
    "return-type": "json"
},

Old version

This code is based on my old Python gist that was used for the same purpose.
