i3pystatus is a (hopefully growing) collection of python scripts for status output compatible to i3status / i3bar of the i3 window manager.
Note
i3pystatus requires Python 3.2 or newer and is not compatible with Python 2.x. Some modules require additional dependencies documented below (see Modules).

- battery module: removed remaining_* formatters in favor of TimeWrapper, as it can not only reproduce all the variants removed, but can do much more.
- mpd: Uses TimeWrapper for song_length, song_elapsed
The config file is just a normal Python script.
A simple configuration file could look like this (note the additional dependencies from network, wireless and pulseaudio in this example):
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*- import subprocess from i3pystatus import Status status = Status(standalone=True) # Displays clock like this: # Tue 30 Jul 11:59:46 PM KW31 # ^-- calendar week status.register("clock", format="%a %-d %b %X KW%V",) # Shows the average load of the last minute and the last 5 minutes # (the default value for format is used) status.register("load") # Shows your CPU temperature, if you have a Intel CPU status.register("temp", format="{temp:.0f}°C",) # The battery monitor has many formatting options, see README for details # This would look like this, when discharging (or charging) # ↓14.22W 56.15% [77.81%] 2h:41m # And like this if full: # =14.22W 100.0% [91.21%] # # This would also display a desktop notification (via dbus) if the percentage # goes below 5 percent while discharging.

Also change your i3wm config to the following:
# i3bar bar { status_command python ~/.path/to/your/config/file.py position top workspace_buttons yes }
All modules let you specifiy the exact output formatting using a format string, which gives you a great deal of flexibility.
If a module gives you a float, it probably has a ton of
uninteresting decimal places. Use {somefloat:.0f}
to get the integer
value, {somefloat:0.2f}
gives you two decimal places after the
decimal dot
Some modules use an extended format string syntax (the mpd module, for example). Given the format string below the output adapts itself to the available data.
[{artist}/{album}/]{title}{status}
Only if both the artist and album is known they're displayed. If only one or none of them is known the entire group between the brackets is excluded.
"is known" is here defined as "value evaluating to True in Python", i.e. an empty string or 0 (or 0.0) counts as "not known".
Inside a group always all format specifiers must evaluate to true (logical and).
You can nest groups. The inner group will only become part of the output if both the outer group and the inner group are eligible for output.
Some modules that output times use TimeWrapper to format these. TimeWrapper is a mere extension of the standard formatting method.
The time format that should be used is specified using the format specifier, i.e.
with some_time being 3951 seconds a format string like {some_time:%h:%m:%s}
would produce 1:5:51
.
%h
,%m
and%s
are the hours, minutes and seconds without leading zeros (i.e. 0 to 59 for minutes and seconds)%H
,%M
and%S
are padded with a leading zero to two digits, i.e. 00 to 59%l
and%L
produce hours non-padded and padded but only if hours is not zero. If the hours are zero it produces an empty string.%%
produces a literal %%E
(only valid on beginning of the string) if the time is null, don't format anything but rather produce an empty string. If the time is non-null it is removed from the string.- When the module in question also uses formatp, 0 seconds counts as "not known".
- The formatted time is stripped, i.e. spaces on both ends of the result are removed.

To contribute a module, make sure it uses one of the Module classes. Most modules use IntervalModule, which just calls a function repeatedly in a specified interval.
The output attribute should be set to a dictionary which represents your modules output, the protocol is documented here.
