Simple CAVA (music visualization) module for waybar.

The shell script cava.sh is exactly the same as in polybar-cava. I just add waybar config examples in this repo.

Usage

Dependencies:

• CAVA
• waybar
• font that support unicode U+2581 to U+2588 (▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█). Most unicode fonts should support these characters
• playerctl (optional: for playerinfo.sh)

If you also like to have the media information in the bar, you can use the playerinfo.sh script. It uses playerctl to get the media information.

Note

Note

When the waybar is killed (or restarted), the cava process will still be running. You can kill it manually using pkill cava or add a script to kill it automatically when the waybar is killed. (Alexays/Waybar#358) (Alexays/Waybar#121)
