**********************
Window manager widgets
**********************
Awesome widget
==============
.. note:: Powerline currently only supports awesome 3.5 and 4+.
.. note:: The Powerline widget will spawn a shell script that runs in the
background and updates the statusline with ``awesome-client``.
Add the following to :file:`rc.lua`, where ``{repository_root}`` is the absolute
path to Powerline installation directory (see :ref:`repository root
<repository-root>`):
.. code-block:: lua
package.path = package.path .. ';{repository_root}/powerline/bindings/awesome/?.lua'
require('powerline')
Then add the ``powerline_widget`` to ``wibox``:
.. code-block:: lua
-- awesome3.5
right_layout:add(powerline_widget)
-- awesome4+
s.mywibox:setup {
...
{ -- Right widgets
...
powerline_widget,
},
}
Qtile widget
============
Add the following to :file:`~/.config/qtile/config.py`:
.. code-block:: python
from libqtile.bar import Bar
from libqtile.config import Screen
from libqtile.widget import Spacer
from powerline.bindings.qtile.widget import PowerlineTextBox
screens = [
Screen(
top=Bar([
PowerlineTextBox(update_interval=2, side='left'),
Spacer(),
PowerlineTextBox(update_interval=2, side='right'),
],
35 # width
),
),
]
.. _lemonbar-usage:
lemonbar (formerly bar-aint-recursive)
======================================
To run the bar simply start the binding script:
python /path/to/powerline/bindings/lemonbar/powerline-lemonbar.py
You can specify options to be passed to ``lemonbar`` after ``--``, like so:
python /path/to/powerline/bindings/lemonbar/powerline-lemonbar.py --height 16 -- -f "Source Code Pro for Powerline-9"
to run with i3, simply ``exec`` this in the i3 config file and set the ``--i3`` switch:
exec python /path/to/powerline/bindings/lemonbar/powerline-lemonbar.py --i3
Running the binding in i3-mode will require `i3ipc <https://github.com/acrisci/i3ipc-python>`_
(or the outdated `i3-py <https://github.com/ziberna/i3-py>`_).
See the `lemonbar documentation <https://github.com/LemonBoy/bar>`_ for more
information and options.
All ``powerline-lemonbar.py`` arguments:
.. automan:: powerline.commands.lemonbar
:prog: powerline-lemonbar.py
:minimal: true
I3 bar
======
Add the following to :file:`~/.config/i3/config`::
bar {
status_command python /path/to/powerline/bindings/i3/powerline-i3.py
font pango:PowerlineFont 12
}
where ``PowerlineFont`` is any system font with powerline support.
