This is a sample code to help you to build your personal i3 bar.

Install

In your ~/.config/i3/config file, add the path to the script mybar.sh :

}

Replace /home/you in this project with your home path.

Copy the files from this i3status repository directory to ~/.config/i3status.

⚠️ Please, read and modify each script !

  • it is given as an example. You may not have ProtonVPN. You need to set you city for the weather informations...
  • Replace /home/you/ with your home path in the mybar.sh file.
  • if you get errors, try to run each bash and python script separately.

Restart i3 : MOD4+SHIFT+R.

yay -S pamixer # for volume information
yay -S pacman-contrib # for checkupdates, to count available packages
yay -S ttf-font-awesome # for icons
yay -S alsa-utils # for alsamixer (sound volume)
pip3 install psutil --user # for cpu, memory, disk usage
