gryf / pywmtemp

Simple dockapp for displaying temperature

PyWMTemp

WindowMaker dockapp for monitoring resources like CPU/GPU temperatures. It supports up to 2 different readings.

Requirements

• Python
• wmdocklib
• psutil

Note, that you'll need to install this wmdocklib instead of original pywmdockapps, since the latter works only with Python2.

Installation

For now, use virtualenv:

$ python -m virtualenv venv
$ . venv/bin/activate
(venv) $ pip install .

Usage

You'll need to prepare yaml file with the configuration. And put it in ~/.config/pywmtemp.yaml (or whatever your XDG_CONFIG_HOME points to). For example:

---
readings:
  - sensor: k10temp
    label: Tccd1
    name: cpu
    override_warning: 65
    override_critical: 70
    unit: °C
  - sensor: amdgpu
    label: edge
    name: gpu
    override_warning: 60
    override_critical: 70
    unit: °C

This will look for the two separate temperatures, one for AMD Ryzen CPU, second for Radeon graphic card. Your hardware might vary, see the output of:

$ python -c 'import psutil; import pprint; pprint.pprint(psutil.sensors_temperatures())'

There are six supported keys in the config:

• sensor - case sensitive sensor name, it corresponds for the keys in dictionary returned by psutil.sensors_temperatures()
• label - it's a unique label for the sensor reading, all the shwtemp namedtuples should have it. Case sensitive.
• name - name displayed on the dockapp. It will be uppercased.
• unit - it should be always °C
• override_warning - if not set, high value from shwtemp would be used if exists.
• override_warning - if not set, critical value from shwtemp would be used if exists.

Those last keys will set the threshold when color for the temperature line will change.

By clicking with the left mouse button on the graph region, it will switch between those two readings.

You can create only one entry if you like. If you create more than two entries in config, all above first two will be ignored. You can, however, run multiple instances of this dockapp by passing different configs using --config parameter.
