This is going to be a bit more comprehensive than anticipated. In order
to cleanly refactor the core and the engine, basically start from
scratch with the implementation.
Goals:
* Test coverage
* Maintain backwards compatibility with module interface as much as
possible (but still make modules easier to code)
* Simplicity
see #23
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.
see #23
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.
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!
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.
* 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.
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 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.
