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). |

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> -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 ~/src/bumblebee-status/bumblebee-status -m disk disk::/home nic cpu memory battery date::"%a, %b %d %Y" spacer time::"%H:%M CW %V" pasink pasource dnf -t solarized-powerline
}
Restart i3wm and - that's it!
Examples
Here are some screenshots for all themes that currently exist:
