This is a relatively basic status bar for sway and i3. It's not intended to be a serious project that works for lots of use cases, but perhaps others will find it useful.

Features

  • Australian weather from BOM Buddy
  • Now playing from MPD
  • Current volume from WirePlumber
  • Current date and time

Usage

The MPD_HOST environment variable is read if set. The --no-stop-on-hide flag prevents the process from being suspended when the bar is hidden. Features can be disabled with the --no-mpd, --no-vol, and --no-bom flags. If using the weather feature, you must either pass --check-weather or run bom-buddy monitor separately.
