A simple fetch tool for Linux written in Python.
- python - For obvious reasons.
- distro - Python library for getting the machine's Linux distribution.
- pyxdg - Python library used to get the $XDG_CONFIG_HOME file path.
- wmctrl-python3 - Python library for the wmctrl tool for X used to get the window manager.
Download the repository and add a symbolic link to the vfetch.py script in your /usr/bin/ directory:
$ git clone https://github.com/Lorago/vfetch.git
$ sudo ln -s /path/to/vfetch/vfetch.py /usr/bin/vfetch
You can then run the script with a simple
$ vfetch
The default configuration is located in the same folder as the vfetch.py file, and is called vfetch.conf. This file should not be removed, moved, or edited.
To configure the script, make a copy of the configuration to $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/vfetch/vfetch.conf, which will usually be ~/.config/vfetch/vfetch.conf.
If the script does not find a file in this directory it will use the default configuration file. By default the vfetch output will look similar to this:
Note that all option values that are not integers or booleans (true or false) need to be surrounded by
quotation marks as the configuration file is a JSON file.
The alignMode option sets the data align mode for the output. Acceptable values are spaces and center.
The alignSpace option sets the shortest space between the data names and values when the alignMode is set to
spaces. Acceptable values are positive integers.
The colorIndex option sets the index of the terminal color (from 0 to 15) to use for the data names. Acceptable
values are 0-15.
The displayAscii option sets whether to display an ascii image at the top left corner of the output. Acceptable
values are true and false.
The asciiImage option sets the file path for the ascii image used if the displayAscii option is set to true.
Acceptable values are file paths to text files.
The iconMode option sets whether to replace the data names with NERD Font icons. Acceptable values are true and
false.
The lowercase option sets whether to lowercase all text. Acceptable values are true and false.
The removeLinux option sets whether to remove the text Linux (case-independent) from the OS data. Acceptable
values are true and false.
The kernelFullName options sets whether to display the full kernel name or to cut off at the first - (e.g.
5.8.4-arch1-1 becomes 5.8.4). Acceptable values are true and false.
The displayArchitecture option sets whether to display the current system architecture after the OS name (e.g.
arch linux x86_64 becomes arch linux). Acceptable values are true and false.
The displayPackageManager option sets whether to display the package manager in parentheses after the number of
packages. Acceptable values are true and false.
The data option sets what data to display and in what order. Values are separated by commas. Acceptable values
are os, kernel, uptime, packages, wm, shell, terminal, battery, and usage.
The offset option sets the offset of the data from the edge or the ascii image (in both the x- and y-directions).
Acceptable values are two different positive integer values (one for the offset in the x-direction, and one for the
offset in the y-direction).
