Installation

# from git (development snapshot)
$ git clone git://github.com/tobi-wan-kenobi/bumblebee-status

# from AUR:
git clone https://aur.archlinux.org/bumblebee-status.git
cd bumblebee-status
makepkg -sicr

# from PyPI (thanks @tony):
# will install bumblebee-status into ~/.local/bin/bumblebee-status
pip install --user bumblebee-status

Dependencies

Available modules lists the dependencies (Python modules and external executables) for each module. If you are not using a module, you don't need the dependencies.

Usage

Normal usage

In your i3wm configuration, 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 their parameters) 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>

The update interval can also be changed on a per-module basis, like this:

$ ./bumblebee-status -m cpu memory -p cpu.interval=5s memory.interval=1m

All modules can be given "aliases" using <module name>:<alias>, by which they can be parametrized, for example:

$ ./bumblebee-status -m disk:root disk:home -p root.path=/ home.path=/home

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!
