Set the minimum width for uplink and downlink widgets to "down 1000MB", which should be plenty, and change alignment to right (personally, I find this looks nicer). To not have the icons on the left side "jump around" depending on the value, make them suffixes. If this solution is not sufficient, alternatively, the widget itself could perform value padding. In that case, the whole alignment and min-width settings would be obsolete and the icons could remain on the left side. |

bumblebee-status
bumblebee-status is a modular, theme-able status line generator for the i3 window manager.
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!
Supported Python versions: 2.7, 3.3, 3.4, 3.5, 3.6
Explicitly unsupported Python versions: 3.2 (missing unicode literals)

Installation
$ git clone git://github.com/tobi-wan-kenobi/bumblebee-status
Usage
Normal 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 themes
$ ./bumblebee-status -l modules
To change the update interval, use:
$ ./bumblebee-status -m <list of modules> -p interval=<interval in seconds>
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:root cpu memory battery date time pasink pasource dnf -p root.path=/ time.format="%H:%M CW %V" date.format="%a, %b %d %Y" -t solarized-powerline
}
Restart i3wm and - that's it!
Errors
If errors occur, you should see them in the i3bar itself. If that does not work, or you need more information for troubleshooting, you can activate a debug log using the -d
or --debug
switch:
$ ./bumblebee-status -d -m <list of modules>
This will create a file called debug.log
in the same directory as the executable bumblebee-status
.
