Contribute

To contribute a module, make sure it uses one of the ``Module`` classes. Most modules
use ``IntervalModule``, which just calls a function repeatedly in a specified interval.

The ``output`` attribute should be set to a dictionary which represents your modules output,
the protocol is documented `here <http://i3wm.org/docs/i3bar-protocol.html>`_.

Developer documentation is available in the source code and `here
<http://docs.enkore.de/i3pystatus>`_.
