sardemff7 / j4status Goto Github PK

The output stopped working completely for me ever since the @750482d commit. I tried it on Arch Linux using glib 2.44.1 and Debian Jessie with glib 2.42.1.

I believe this line is to blame.

So far I wasn't able to find a release package for j4status, would it be possible for you to provide a release tarball (i.e. a 0.0.1/0.1.0 version)?

It would make it easier to package j4status (for Debian/Ubuntu in my case).

Thanks!

As of 8c017e4 building from a checkout of the Git repository does not work because the meson_options.txt file is missing, and Meson complains about undefined options.

Hi!

Thank you for this tool.
I used it previously to replace i3bar completely and use it with eventd to spawn notifications.

Unfortunately it seems that it has been abandoned :(

Any change it can be merged with master?

Appreciate it!

Seems like j4tools.org has been lost to domain sitters.

Hi, very interested to demo j4status but I'm unable to build and I receive following error:

Any hints on where to go from here? Thanks

After running i3 fullscreen; i3 fullscreen the i3bar says "Error: status_command process exited unexpectedly (exit 0)".

Before this, the process tree looks like this: i3bar -> sh -> j4status. After the second i3 fullscreen, sh exits and j4status is adopted by pid 1. It has probably something to do with i3bar sending SIGSTOP/SIGCONT signal to the child. I figured out a difference between using i3status and j4status. When using i3status and watching the processes with top during fullscreen, both sh and i3status are marked as stopped ("T"), while with j4status it is not the case.

(or maybe docbook-style-xsl on other distris) because else you get make error:

I/O error : Attempt to load network entity http://docbook.sourceforge.net/release/xsl/current/manpages/profile-docbook.xsl
warning: failed to load external entity "http://docbook.sourceforge.net/release/xsl/current/manpages/profile-docbook.xsl"
cannot parse http://docbook.sourceforge.net/release/xsl/current/manpages/profile-docbook.xsl

Would you provide an example of a [systemd] section?

So every now and then, I will come across a bug in systemd, or maybe by my own mistakes cause some sort of problem on my system that may be difficult to detect until I require the full resources of the system.

For instance, a script or application may be in an infinite loop without any immediate indication and many times the first way I notice this is by the rising temperature of the room.

So this is a feature request for some feature that will allow me to run some sort of light system diagnosis at some interval and alert me if this test fails. Maybe something as general as running a script and reporting the exit code unless zero will do.

Because use of definiton PA_CVOLUME_SNPRINT_VERBOSE_MAX in
pulseaudio.c, line 43.

The plugins with -o flat and with the [plugins] in j4status/config sections doesnt work with git version. time works, upower works, systemd, but nm doesnt work, i3bar doesnt work.

I noticed that if NetworkManager is not running, j4status says not input plugin with no error specified, maybe the others doesnt work because fails finding the program o service.

Hi,

Is it possible to get a visual indicator shown in the i3bar when in fullscreen mode. A bit like resize ?

Cheers

my config:

[NetworkManager]
Interfaces=eenp5s0;wlp1s0;
Addresses=IPv4

yet i get an IPv6:

$ j4status -1i nm
W: 192.168.2.105, fe80::218:deff:fe97:9322 (78% at My_SSID, 54Mb/s)

MPD plugin display No song if title of song is nothing while ncmpcpp display filename...

Compilation works with gcc though, maybe README should mention it as mandatory?

OS: ArchLinux 64-bit fully patched yesterday.

Fresh checkout, I ran:

./autogen.sh && ./configure && make 

and end up with this (end of configure, plus compile and error)

Other similar projects allow to interpolate on a given list to display something.

What i mean is that given e.g. an interpolation list of [" ", "▁", "▂", "▃", "▄", "▅", "▆", "▇", "█"], one can interpolate a numeric value (e.g. between 0 and 100, or 0 and 1) on this list.

This could be used in formatting or for labels (if used for labels, there has to be a concept of a “main number” that can be used for interpolation, e.g. hours÷12 for time, signal strength for wifi, volume, charge, …)

The recently popular emojis are really useful. I’d like to use 🔌 for my system power, 🖰 for my mouse, …

(install ttf-symbola or watch on a mobile device to see what i mean)
