Cycled widget styles (such as the battery charging style) were broken
until now. The reason for this: They maintain state that represents the
current cycle position (i.e. what is the current icon that is being
displayed), but that is done in a way that uses repr() on the widget
object.
Since the widget objects are re-created each time the bar is drawn, this
is a deeply flawed design.
Instead, use the instance() of the widget for now.
Hide alias concept for modules in the engine. That way, the individual
modules never get to know about whether a module has been aliased or
not.

"nic.exclude" is now a parameter that can be used to have a custom list
of excluded interface prefixes. Multiple prefixes should be separated by
a comma.
fixes#26
When receiving a "nop" (None) command, skip it. Otherwise, an exception
is thrown and input processing stops.
Also, remove the "communicate()" call to *not* wait until a process has
finished until resuming input processing. Otherwise, whenever an
external program (pavucontrol, nautilius, ...) is started, any further
input processing is stalled until the program has been closed again.
fixes#24
Whenever the language is changed outside the bar, update the bar
accordingly. Also, when a new language is used, automatically append it
to the list of available languages.
User can now specify a list of languages as parameter (pipe-separated
list). Variants can also be specified by separating language and variant
with a :
For instance: -p layout.lang="us|rs:latin"
Left click moves on to the next language, right click to the previous.
Right now, there are the following caveats:
* The first entry in the list must be the language used when the bar
starts
* kxbd changes outside the bar are not picked up automatically
This one is a bit tricky:
* Clicking on an active xrandr output will disable it
* Clicking on a disabled xrandr output will enable it -> if
it is a left-click, it will put it as the left-most display
if it is a right-click, as the right-most display
Also, it will reload the i3 bars (using a script that allows
you to write custom pieces of an i3 configuration that is applied
conditionally depending on the screens you have).
It goes like this:
* Base config is in ~/.i3/config.template
* Output-specific config is in ~/.i3/config.<screen name>
* Output-specific config when other screens are also active is in
~/.i3/config.<screen>-<other-screens-in-alphabetic-order>
For instance:
$ ls ~/.i3
config.template
config.eDP1 -> will be applied to eDP1 (always)
config.VGA1-eDP1 -> will be applied to VGA1, if eDP1 is also active
config.VGA1 -> will be applied to VGA1 (if eDP1 is inactive)
fixes#19
This modules shows attached displays and their states (on or off).
Future versions of this module will order the icons by the relative
order of the screens (left-to-right) and will allow switching monitors
on and off.
see #19
Add code that allows themes to be merged (i.e. if certain elements are
not present in a theme, another theme can be "overlaid" to add missing
elements).
Effectively, this is used to create the logical concept of an "icon
theme", which is loaded after the main theme. So, the main theme can
define colors, and the icon theme fills in any missing elements
(practically, all the icons in the form of prefixes and suffixes).
Icon sets are defined in a theme using the "icons" directive, which
should be an array.
see #17
Add the possibility to specify a list of commands to be added as
callbacks. Commands will be executed one after the other, waiting for
the previous command to finish execution.
Due to a bug, when the destination was unreachable, the checking thread
would terminate, effectively keeping the widget stuck in "unreachable"
mode.
Now, enable recovery by keeping the thread running even if the target is
not reachable for some time.
Add controls that allow the user to switch to the next and previous song
in cmus, toggle shuffle and repeat. Pause/play is toggled by clicking on
the song title itself.
fixes#5
Allow the user to use all tags read by cmus (cmus-remote -Q|grep ^tag)
as part of the displayed data (plus the special 'tags' "duration" and
"position").
This callback just makes it really hard to see for the user what is
going on. The alias the user provides should *always* match the
instance, so that it can be used in a meaningful way in the click
action, for example (otherwise, something like "nautilus {instance}"
gets really hard to interpret.
This is now much nicer implemented to address issue #3. A user can now
have a configuration parameter mapped to a module instance (via the
module name or the instance name) with the value "left-click",
"right-click", etc., like this:
-m disk:home -p home.left-click="nautilus {instance}"
Big oversight in my previous commits: Widgets need to be able to have
specific configurations (i.e. the path for different instances of the
"disk" module has to be different).
To account for that, it is now possible to assign an "alias" to a module
instance using ":" (for example: -m "disk:home"). This alias is then
used for the configuration parameter resolution automatically, for
example:
-m disk:home -p home.path=/home
As a consequence, parameter names in the module code are now relative to
the module, which means: shorter!
Repeatedly querying the interface type the way I'm doing right now
results in "too many files open" pretty quickly. Obviously, it's a bit
of a concern that I am leaking a file descriptor somewhere, but for now,
the quickfix is to cache the type (it shouldn't change, anyhow).
All callback from a widget into a module (e.g. for retrieving the status
or the criticality state) now get a widget passed. This has the purpose
of allowing a module to store state/widget specific data somewhere. This
way, for instance, it is possible to store the interface name as part of
the widget, thus making it possible to show the status of the correct
interface.
Allow the user to specify arbitrary configuration parameters from the
commandline and evaluate those in the modules (and elsewhere). Re-enable
the CPU module as a first showcase of this functionality.
Allow theme entries to be lists that are then iterated. For this
purpose, extend the Config class so that it can serve as generic store
for data items. That makes it easy to centralize code used for rotation
etc. in a single place.
Yet another bug in the DNF module - really a troublesome one. Only call
the dnf updateinfo every interval, not every second. That significantly
reduces CPU load.
Due to name-clashing of the datetime module's "time" alias, time.sleep
didn't work (as it was looked up from the i3bumblebee module),
consequently, the DNF poll thread exited.
While at it, "beautify" the thread cancelling a bit by waiting until
the main thread is not running anymore.
* cpu+memory: Open "gnome-system-monitor"
* disk: Open nautilus
* pulseaudio: Mute/unmute, open "pavucontrol" on right-click, raise/lower
volume on mouse wheel up/down
Pass the "output" object to the modules' constructor to allow them to
define their own callbacks.
Any user-provided callbacks take precedence and override those of the
module.
