Lemonbuddy

A fast and easy-to-use tool for Lemonbar.

Lemonbuddy aims to help users build beautiful and highly customizable status bars without messing with named pipes, MacGyver-like scripting or non-blocking loops lobotomizing your CPU.

Please note that the project hasn't been tested, other then by myself, so bugs and various bumps is to be expected. Please report any issues here on github.

Installation

Arch Linux

Install the AUR package lemonbuddy

Void Linux

A package will be written for XBPS so stay tuned.

Dependencies:

A C++ compiler with C++14 support. For example clang.

• lemonbar (obviously)

  • NOTE: The application has only been tested against the single-mon fork. If you have trouble with your version of lemonbar, install the fork which is included in the contrib folder.

    There are plans to integrate lemonbar into the project.

• cmake
• boost
• libx11
• libxrandr
• wireless_tools (optional: used by the network module)
• alsa-lib (optional: used by the volume module)
• libmpdclient (optional: used by the mpd module)
• libsigc++ (optional: used by the i3 module)

Installing using pacman:

$ pacman -S cmake boost libx11 libxrandr wireless_tools alsa-lib libmpdclient libsigc++ i3-wm

Installing using xbps-install:

$ xbps-install -S cmake alsa-lib-devel boost-devel i3-devel libX11-devel libXrandr-devel libmpdclient-devel libsigc++-devel wireless_tools-devel

Installing using apt-get:

NOTE: libmpdclient-dev and i3-wm are located in the universe repository, so if you want support for the mpd/i3 modules you need to make sure it's included in the list of sources in /etc/apt/sources.list. For example:

deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ xenial main restricted universe

$ apt-get install cmake libx11-dev libxrandr-dev libboost-dev libiw-dev libmpdclient-dev libsigc++-dev i3-wm

Building from source

Automatic installation using ./build.sh

If you haven't worked with builds before you could try to run the following command chain:

$ git clone --branch 0.1.2 --recursive https://github.com/jaagr/lemonbuddy.git
$ cd lemonbuddy
$ ./build.sh

NOTE: git-perl is required for submodules to work in Void Linux

It is of course recommended that you control the build process yourself.

$ git clone --branch 0.1.2 --recursive https://github.com/jaagr/lemonbuddy.git
$ mkdir lemonbuddy/build
$ cd lemonbuddy/build
$ cmake ..
# Optionally list and edit build variables
$ make edit_cache
$ sudo make install
