Add a plugin that displays the remaining battery power in %. This also
introduces the concept of arguments that can be passed to a module
during startup by delimiting the module name with ":", for example:
-m battery:BAT1 to query the BAT1 device.
Note that this works to an arbitray length, i.e. if a module accepts 3
parameters: -m <modulename>:<A>:<B>:<C>
The module gets the arguments as list.
Add - again a very simplistic - method for themeing the output.
Essentially, the plan is to have JSON-formatted configuration files in
bumblebee/themes/ and have a separate class for querying the config
whenever the output needs to know about semantic formatting/coloring.
Note that the theme object is stored on a per-module basis. Right now,
that doesn't have any effect (except looking particularly wasteful), but
the idea is to be able to have different themes for different modules in
the future.
Add a very simplistic framework for loading modules that query system
data. The user can provide a list of modules via an argument switch, and
the name of the module is used to look up a Python module that has to
have a class called "Module".
The outer framework (the outputs, in particular) then uses various query
methods of that class to construct a meaningful output.
Prepare a framework for having modular outputs. Essentially, the main
application uses a output-type object to format strings for the
preamble, the actual data items, and a "postamble" (finalizer). The
printing of that representation, again, is up to the main application,
not the output framework.
Probably, at some point in the future, an interface class will be in
order, but right now, I want to keep it lean - seeing as for the
forseeable future, i3bar is going to be the one and only consumer of
this.
