## Introduction
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
**f00bar** is a light-weight and configurable status panel (_bar_, for
|
|
short) for X and Wayland.
|
|
|
|
It has a number of _modules_ that provide information in the form of
|
|
_tags_. For example, the _clock_ module has a _date_ tag that contains
|
|
the current date.
|
|
|
|
The modules do not know _how_ to present the information though. This
|
|
is instead done by _particles_. And the user, you, decides _which_
|
|
particles (and thus _how_ to present the data) to use.
|
|
|
|
Furthermore, each particle can have a _decoration_. These are things
|
|
like a different background, or an graphical underline.
|
|
|
|
There is **no** support for images or icons. use an icon font
|
|
(e.g. _Font Awesome_, or _Material Icons_) if you want a graphical
|
|
representation.
|
|
|
|
There are a number of modules and particles builtin. More can be added
|
|
as plugins. You can even write your own!
|
|
|
|
To summarize: a _bar_ displays information provided by _modules_,
|
|
using _particles_ and _decorations_. **How** is configured by you.
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Configuration
|
|
|
|
F00bar is configured using YAML, in `~/.config/f00bar/config.yml`. It
|
|
must define a top-level dictionary named **bar**:
|
|
|
|
bar:
|
|
height: 26
|
|
location: top
|
|
background: 000000ff
|
|
|
|
right:
|
|
- clock:
|
|
content:
|
|
- string: {text: , font: *awesome}
|
|
- string: {text: "{date}", right-margin: 5}
|
|
- string: {text: , font: *awesome}
|
|
- string: {text: "{time}"}
|
|
|
|
|
|
For details, see the man pages (**f00bar**(5) is a good start).
