bargets 0.1.0rc2

Tiny arsenal of widgets for statusbars

About

Bargets is a small set of tiny but nice little widgets to be used in a statusbar, such as Polybar, i3bar etc.

Where does the name, "bargets", come from? [Bar] Wid[gets].

Installation

bargets requires python3.10, so the way to install is:

python3.10 -m pip install bargets

Usage

To use a widget in your statusbar, simply provide path to the widget in your statusbar's config. Make sure to check where pip installed the widgets, by typing which <widget name> against any of the widgets, so that you know what path to use.

Example: polybar

The following is a snippet of how you could use the battery widget with polybar:

[battery]
type = custom/script
exec = $HOME/.local/bin/bargets-battery
interval = 5

Configuration: bargets.yaml

If you wish, you can configure each widget how you like in bargets.yaml. First, you need to create a file called bargets.yaml to ~/.config/bargets. You can copy example configuration from here.
