# bumblebee-status
|
|
|
|
bumblebee-status is a modular, theme-able status line generator for the [i3 window manager](https://i3wm.org/).
|
|
|
|
Focus is on:
|
|
* Ease of use (no configuration files!)
|
|
* Theme support
|
|
* Extensibility (of course...)
|
|
|
|
I hope you like it and appreciate any kind of feedback: Bug reports, Feature requests, etc. :)
|
|
|
|
Thanks a lot!

# Installation
|
|
```
|
|
$ git clone git://github.com/tobi-wan-kenobi/bumblebee-status
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
# Usage
|
|
|
|
Next, open your i3wm configuration and modify the *status_command* for your i3bar like this:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
bar {
|
|
status_command = <path to bumblebee-status/bumblebee-status> -m <list of modules> -p <list of module parameters> -t <theme>
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
You can retrieve a list of modules and themes by entering:
|
|
```
|
|
$ cd bumblebee-status
|
|
$ ./bumblebee-status -l
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
As a simple example, this is what my i3 configuration looks like:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
bar {
|
|
font pango:Inconsolata 10
|
|
position top
|
|
tray_output none
|
|
status_command ~/.i3/bumblebee-status/bumblebee-status -m nic disk:/ cpu memory battery date time pasink pasource dnf -p time.format="%H:%M CW %V" date.format="%a, %b %d %Y" -t solarized-powerline
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
Restart i3wm and - that's it!
|
