A dwm status bar in python customized for my version of dwm with different colors. This status bar update with signals for better volume integration and also displays a loading bar when your package manager is running
Usage: dwmstat
Sets the status bar of dwm to a small and precise status bar
Arguments:
-h, --help The help message
-v, --verbose Display on the terminal the output of the command
-t, --time Set the refresh time in seconds (default: 60)
Status output:
[Date Time][Battery][Local IP addresses][Volume][Distribution hostname]
Made by p4p1.
The loading bar is toggled when a package manager is running, currently it does not show progress properly and just endlessly cicles but I am looking into changing that soon.
To install this status bar you can use pip the python package by downloading the repository and running:
$ sudo pip3 install -U .
After installation you can add the script to your startup app, if you need the full path you can use whereis
The dependancies for python should be automatically installed by pip.
