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.
Allow a user to specify click events with the following format:
-e "<module name><splitter><button ID><splitter><command to execute>"
for example:
-e "disk::1::nautilus {instance}"
The i3 output now has a separate thread that continuously monitors stdin
for incoming click events. The generic output class also has methods for
registering callbacks (as commands). For now, by default, scroll events
will be used to emulate the next/previous workspace.
Add a module that periodically (by default, once every 30min) calls
"dnf updateinfo" and evaluates the results to report the number of
bugfixes, enhancements, etc.
If there's either too many pending updates, or at least one security
update, the module goes critical.
Add a module that retrieve mute status and volume (left, right, mono)
from pulseaudio. Unfortunately, this module is really, really hacky. It
invokes "pactl" multiple times to get the status and does some ugly
parsing on the output.
Overall, this is pretty brittle and prone to failure, but as I was not
able to find a decent pulseaudio library for Python... Probably, I
haven't searched hard enough, cannot believe such a thing does not
exist.
Add a new module "disk" that takes an optional parameter (the path) and
displays free & total disk space, along with the usage percentage.
Also, added Tunnel/VPN support to the themeing of the "net" module.
First, cache lookups were bugged... Second, the output needs to call
data() first, everything else later.
This is a bit nasty, and I'll consider re-visiting this, but right now,
I don't see any other way, given that modules can now be iterated.
Add a module that displays the status of all NICs (interface name, list
of IPs and state).
In its status, it also exposes whether it's a WiFi or a wired NIC.
For this functionality, additional code was implemented to allow a
module to add multiple elements to the bar at once. The framework calls
the module until its "next()" method return False.
