Make input thread non-blocking by using select(). This increases the CPU
utilization a bit (depending on the timeout), but makes the thread exit
cleanly, even if an exception is thrown in the main thread.
see #23
If a widget exists for an interface that is not there anymore (i.e. a
tunnel interface that has been removed, or a USB device that has been
unplugged), remove that widget from the list.
see #23
Re-add the NIC module with all its functionality (hopefully...).
This introduces a new concept: Instead of having separate queries for
critical and warning (which really are just another set of states), a
module can now return a list of states for each widget. All the state
information is then merged together into a single theme. So, for
instance, the NIC module can return a state saying "critical -
wlan-down", which applies the theme information for both "critical" and
"wlan-down".
see #23
I cannot get the min_width property to work right now, so in order to
fix the width of the CPU widget, pad the utilization to 3 digits (so
that even 100% aligns nicely).
see #23
The cpu module now has cpu.warning and cpu.critical thresholds. If the
CPU utilization is higher than any of those values, the widget's state
changes to warning or critical, respectively.
see #23
Create infrastructure for input event handling and add i3bar event
processing. For each event, callbacks can be registered in the input
module.
Modules and widgets both identify themselves using a unique ID (the
module name for modules, a generated UUID for the widgets). This ID is
then used for registering the callbacks. This is possible since both
widgets and modules are statically allocated & do not change their IDs.
Callback actions can be either callable Python objects (in which case
the event is passed as parameter), or strings, in which case the string
is interpreted as a shell command.
see #23
Each widget can now return a state using the method "state()". This
string is then used to look up a theme information which is used instead
of the default or module theme, if found.
see #23
Add customized separators:
* The default separators are automatically disabled if custom separators
are used (to "just" disable the default, use empty custom separators)
* Use previous background color as their background color and the
current background color as foreground color
* Allow the separator-block-width to be configured
see #23
Allow a theme to define a "cycle" of attributes that are cycled through
on a widget-per-widget basis (e.g. for alternating the widget
background). These cycles take precedence over the default values, but
can be overridden by module-specific theme instructions.
see #23
Make the format string of the datetime module configurable using the new
parameter() method in the module.
Also, restructured the setting of the config information a bit so that
the parameter() method can be used in the constructor of a module.
see #23
User can now use -p <key>=<value> to pass configuration parameters to
modules. For this, the module gets a "parameter()" method. Parameter
keys are in the format <name>.<key> where <name> is the name of the
loaded module. This is either the name of the module itself (e.g. "cpu")
or its alias, if the user specified it, for example:
bumblebee-status -m cpu -p cpu.warning=90
vs.
bumblebee-status -m cpu:test -p test.warning=90
see #23
Add an interface that allows arbitrary objects to store/retrieve
arbitrary key/value pairs. This will be used for different purposes in
the future:
* Config class(es) can store user-defined parameters for modules
* Widgets can store state
* ???
see #23
