shuibar

A sh-driven swaybar.

I'm using this project as an excuse to learn things. As such, it's probably a little bit of a mess and subject to change at any time.

One of the goals is to mostly use the tools available on a fresh Alpine Linux install (Busybox) and keep the package requirements low.

A decent number of "blocks" rely on external services (location, weather, etc.). Each block should have its own README with more information. Blocks aim to be somewhat configurable (ex: custom endpoints for external services).

Usage

See the "config.example" file to configure which blocks to run.

In your sway config file (usually ~/.config/sway/config) point the "status_command" property to main.sh, with the --json parameter like so:

bar {
 status_command '~/.config/sway/swaybar/bin/main.sh -p json'
}
