minimalist block based lemonbar wrapper

From the AUR with:

aura -S thonkbar-git

or manualy with:

make install

The program reads a config file located at ~/.config/thonkbar/config.

[config]
delimiter = <delimiter>
delimiter_color = "#AARRGGBB"
font = "<font>:size=<integer>"
underline_width = <integer>
background_color = "#AARRGGBB"
foreground_color = "#AARRGGBB"
text_offset = <integer>
left_padding = <integer>
right_padding = <integer>
position = top|bottom
docking_mode = normal|force

To create a block you just need to add a line in one of the following formats:

[name]
essential = True|False
side = left|right|center
cmd = <command>
update = CONTINUOUS|ONCE|<integer>
event = <command>

Can be either a command in the $PATH or a command in ~/.config/thonkbar/scripts (when prepended with scripts/) that outputs a suported block format.

Using the SIGUSR2 a user can toggle the bar between showing all the blocks and showing only the blocks marked as essential. By default the blocks are marked as essential so this field can be omitted.

Can be either a command in the PATH or a command in ~/.config/thonkbar/scripts (when prepended with scripts/) that outputs a supported block format.

Commands used can output up to 3 lines:

• text on the block
• text color (#RRGGBB)
• underline color (#RRGGBB)

Represents the script update kind/frequency. Can be any of the following:

Optionally a block can be updated via the corresponding signal via pkill.

Useful information for each block (including the bound signal) is outputted when the bar starts.

Is a script that is called with the following arguments whenever a mouse click is registered on the bar.

<button handler> <button> <id>

• <button> can be: LEFT, CENTER, RIGHT, UP or DOWN
• <id> is the signal bound to the block (useful for updating the block after handling the button press)

• Config file with:
  • custom delimiter character and color
  • block on the right side of the bar that displays time/date (updates every second)
  • block on the left side that listens continuously to a script located at ~/.config/thonkbar/scripts/workspaces

[config]
delimiter = "  |  "
delimiter_color = "#666666"

[uptime]
side = right
cmd = "uptime -p"
update = 60

[workspaces]
side = left
cmd = "scripts/workspaces"
update = CONTINUOUS

• My personal config
• Usefull scripts:
  • Script for battery
  • Script for wifi
  • Script for workspaces on i3.
