Using title number all, this enables aggregates. Note that FreeBSD and
OpenBSD previously only reported aggregates, so this is bringing Linux
and NetBSD that functionality.
Changes the default battery reporting to the aggregate since most
users probably don't care about individual batteries. For single-battery
systems there should be no change.
Fixes one obvious memory leak in NetBSD.
CPU usage had previously not supported the color option. Add support
for a "degraded" state above which the degraded color is used, and a
higher "bad" state above which the "bad" color is used. One possible
use for these might be indicating whether one or all cores are
saturated.
Unlike the color settings for other, these are set high enough to be
disabled by default. This is done because i3status determines CPU
usage over only the last display interval, which means that, a user
with a low refresh rate might see frequent, potentially-annoying color
changes.
Since we have deterministic device names in Linux, these strings are a
much better default in the i3status config than "eth0" and "wlan0" (what
we used before).
Replaced hard coded status strings (CHR, BAT, FULL) in
print_battery_info.c with user defined strings. The new strings are
'status_chr', 'status_bat' and 'status_full' and can be set in i3status.conf.
e.g.
status_chr = "⚡ CHR"
If any of the new status strings is omitted the standard strings (CHR,
BAT, FULL) are used.
This patch enables users to define "align" and "min_width" options
right in the i3status module config sections.
Specifically this patch:
* Adds macros for the two new options that are used in the option
definitions. As the min_width option can take either a string or a
number, a custom type has been added along with a corresponding callback
function that parses the provided value (and provides input validation).
The align option also uses a callback for input validation
* Expands all module config option definitions to include the new
options
* Extends the SEC_CLOSE_MAP() macro to generate the JSON for the new
options as necessary
* Updates the manpage to explain the new options
This patch adds the ability to customize the separator that is placed
between modules.
Specifically this patch:
* adds the "separator" general directive
* moves the definition of the default separator for the different
output formats (excluding color formatting) to src/i3status.c
* updates the SEC_CLOSE_MAP macro to disable the separator for the
i3bar output format if the separator directive dictates so
* changes print_seperator() in src/output.c to take a separator
parameter in order to disable the output of the separator if
the separator is empty and to use the provided separator
otherwise
* updates the manpage to explain the new directive
If the volume is muted, the volume level would simply be displayed as zero and the color changed to color_degraded.
This patch lets the user define a custom format string for when the volume is muted.
The default value is "♪: 0%" ("♪: %volume" being the usual format).
If we don't do this, the output of i3status will remain on the terminal,
which is really ugly if the statusline becomes shorter after a while
(for example a connection get's lost), because there will be garbage.
- Temperature sensors can now set a 'max_threshold' value to color the output red if exceeded.
- Allow for arbitrary temperature sensors nodes to be selected with 'path' on OpenBSD.
The battery threshold can now be configured as type "time" or
"percentage", but defaults to "time" to prevent unexpected behavior.
Also, low_threshold was set to a more reasonable default of 30.
This will make i3status depend on a useful configuration file (so
/etc/i3status.conf has to be installed) to actually output anything.
However, it fixes a very common error: people edit their i3status.conf and
don’t get that the first order directive has to use =, not +=. Since order is
now empty by default, you can use += everywhere.
We finally switched to libconfuse for a configuration file format
which does not require much work for the programmer nor for the user.
Plus, it avoids the Not-Invented-Here syndrome of yet another config
file format.
Furthermore, as a consequence of providing format strings for every
"module" (ipv6, wireless, …), we directly print the output and thus
we needed to drop support for wmii. This allowed us to get rid of
quite some complexity.
Documentation about the new configuration file and options will
follow. This commit is the beginning of what will be i3status v2.0.
