Custom Polybar theme

Custom Polybar theme

• Using https://github.com/Templarian/MaterialDesign fonts
• Most modules are configured to use scripts from scripts directory but some run desktop environment (GNOME in this case) based commands like gnome-control-center etc. which can be easily configured.
• pulseaudio-control module taken from https://github.com/marioortizmanero/polybar-pulseaudio-control but modified.

Fonts

1. Clone Material Design repository:

git clone https://github.com/Templarian/MaterialDesign-Font.git

2. Move .ttf file to ~/.local/share/fonts:

mkdir -p ~/.local/share/fonts
cd MaterialDesign-Font
mv *.ttf ~/.local/share/fonts
fc-cache -v

3. Get font name for .config to use it:

fc-list | grep "MaterialDesign"

this should return something like this:

~/.local/share/fonts/MaterialDesignIconsDesktop.ttf: Material Design Icons Desktop:style=Regular

and you have to copy part after : which is Material Design Icons Desktop:style=Regular

4. Paste it to .config file:

[bar/example]
font-3 = Material Design Icons Desktop:style=Regular:pixelsize=15:antialias=true;4

For all scripts to work install:

sudo apt install rfkill lm-sensors udisks2 libnotify-bin pulseaudio upower pacmd
