In order to use symbol files, symbol.json needs to be created manually
now.
Also, remove symbol usage from the prepackaged themes to avoid
breakage.
fixes#216
Theme writers are now able to use FontAwesome names and IDs instead of
the symbols itself!
The implementation itself is *slightly* hacky and might get improved in
the future: Upon the first start, a YAML file containing the FontAwesome
symbols is fetched from
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/FortAwesome/Font-Awesome/master/src/icons.yml
Note: This is only done once - to retrigger this (i.e. for an update),
please just delete the file and restart bumblebee-status.
Then, in the *icon* theme itself, you can use ${<name or id>} instead of
the actual symbol.
Names and IDs can be found here:
http://fontawesome.io/cheatsheet/
(simply remove the "fa-" prefix)
An example is provided in themes/icons/awesome-fonts.json.
(finally) fixes#20
sorry for taking so long :)
In a theme file, it is now possible to provide an array of "color
definitions", which allow you to use names instead of colors throughout
the theme file.
Currently, only the colorset "wal" is supported, which reads all colors
from the wal JSON file (~/.cache/wal/colors.json) and makes them usable
in the theme (as "foreground", "background", "cursor", "color12", etc.).
An example of this can be found in the theme wal-powerline.
see #185
In order to do that, change the theme engine so that a theme can
override settings in the iconsets. Was probably a bug to begin with that
this was not possible.
The moon icon seems to make more sense for night time.
Add a datetime icon so you get a clock when using datetime.
Change the CPU icon to the microchip character.
The current thermometer icon isn't actually included in fontawesome, requiring a user to install and find another font that does support it, such as symbola or nota-emoji
Since this is for font-awesome it would make sense to only require font-awesome.
Set the minimum width for uplink and downlink widgets to "down 1000MB",
which should be plenty, and change alignment to right (personally, I
find this looks nicer).
To not have the icons on the left side "jump around" depending on the
value, make them suffixes.
If this solution is not sufficient, alternatively, the widget itself
could perform value padding. In that case, the whole alignment and
min-width settings would be obsolete and the icons could remain on the
left side.
* use psutil instead of "ifconfig" in order to avoid external command
calls
* fix a small bug in the ascii theme (missing colon)
* show statistics per-nic
If the computer runs on AC, display that instead of showing "100%" in
the status.
Also, if reading the charging status fails for some reason (except the
computer being on AC), go into critical state and display "n/a".
