LemonbarGo(LEGO)

Simple configurable lemonbar wrapper written in go. Supports single block refresh, timers, user signals, stalonetray. Contains multiple examples and preconfigured config.

Getting Started

These instructions will get you a copy of the project up and running on your local machine for development and testing purposes. See deployment for notes on how to deploy the project on a live system.

Prerequisites

Needs lemonbar,preconfigured to work with stalonetray if installed. Lemonbar also support transparent background, but needs compositor (such as compton) to be running, otherwise transparency is ignored.

Installing

git clone "https://github.com/nagy135/lego"

and then

cd lego
make
sudo make install
./lego

Config

Sample config

left:music|packages
center:workspaces
right:torrent|volume|battery|brightness|redshift|wifi|layout|date

separator=" %{F#FF0000}#%{F-} "
powerline=true
after_run=/home/infiniter/.scripts/lego_fix_layers

# format #aarrggbb
background=#ff0b0b0b

font="Inconsolata for Powerline-19"
font="FontAwesome-19"

stalonetray--geometry=1x1+700+0
stalonetray--grow-gravity=E
stalonetray--icon-gravity=W
stalonetray-bg=#0b0b0b

[music
    interval=0
    color=#FF282A2E
    subscribe=/usr/bin/subscribe_music
]

First 3 lines define positions of blocks and their order

left:music|packages
center:workspaces
right:torrent|volume|battery|brightness|redshift|wifi|layout|date

Set separator character (if not using powerline mode)

separator=" %{F#FF0000}#%{F-} "

Turns on powerline mode, needs specified color for each block

powerline=true

Sets script that is ran after bar is created (to set your xorg layers properly). Features example used in BSPWM.

after_run=/home/infiniter/.scripts/lego_fix_layers

Sets background color, format #aarrggbb (allows transparency)

background=#ff0b0b0b

Accepts multiple fonts, uses them all (one for text, one icons)

font="Inconsolata for Powerline-19"
font="FontAwesome-19"

Settings for stalonetray

stalonetray--geometry=1x1+700+0
stalonetray--grow-gravity=E
stalonetray--icon-gravity=W
stalonetray-bg=#0b0b0b

Example block with name "music", no refresh interval, color #FF282A2E and enabled subscribe script. This script will be ran to refresh block on events.
