Tested languages

Anything that can write to standard out is supported, but here is a list that have been explicitally tested.

  1. Ruby
  2. Status: Working
  3. Output: puts "your string here"
  4. Python2
  5. Status: Working
  6. Output: print "your string here"
  7. Python3
  8. Status: Working
  9. Output: print("your string here")
  10. JavaScript (node)
  11. Status: Working
  12. Caveats: Shebang has to be in the format #!/usr/bin/env /path/to/the/node/executable
  13. Output: console.log("your string here")
  14. Notes: 1. process.stdout.write doesn't output desired text. 1. There may be a better way to run JavaScript files.
  15. CoffeeScript (coffee)
  16. Status: Working
  17. Caveats: 1. Shebang has to be in the format #!/usr/bin/env /path/to/the/coffee/executable 1. coffee shebang also had to be modified.
    1. #!/usr/bin/env /path/to/the/node/executable
  18. Output: console.log "your string here"
  19. Notes: 1. process.stdout.write doesn't output desired text. 1. There may be a better way to run CoffeeScript files.
  20. Swift (Interpreted)
  21. Status: Working
  22. Output: print("your string here")
  23. Swift (Compiled)
  24. Status: Working
  25. Caveats: You still need a file extension (file.cswift)
  26. Output: print("your string here")
  27. Notes: 1. To compile a swift file, use: xcrun -sdk macosx swiftc -o file.1s.cswift file.1s.swift

Plugin API

  • To write a plugin, just write some form of executable script that outputs to the standard output.
  • Multiple lines will be cycled through over and over.
  • If your output contians a line consisting only of ---, the lines below it will appear in the dropdown for that plugin, but won't appear in the menu bar itself.
  • Your lines might contain | to separate the title from other parameters, such as...
    • href=.. to make the dropdown items clickable
    • color=.. to change their text color. eg. color=red or color=#ff0000
    • font=.. to change their text font. eg. font=UbuntuMono-Bold
    • size=.. to change their text size. eg. size=12
    • bash=.. to make the dropdown run a given script terminal with your script e.g. bash="/Users/user/BitBar_Plugins/scripts/nginx.restart.sh --verbose"
    • terminal=.. if need to start bash script without open Terminal may be true or false
    • refresh=.. to make the dropdown items refresh the plugin it belongs to
    • dropdown=.. May be set to true or false. If false, the line will only appear and cycle in the status bar but not in the dropdown
  • If you're writing scripts, ensure it has a shebang at the top.
  • You can add to PATH by including something like export PATH='/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:$PATH' in your plugin script.
  • You can use emoji in the output (find an example in the Music/vox Plugin).
