py3status-uptime

Uptime module for py3status

Installation

To install the module you must first get the py3status sources and insert the module into the modules directory.

cd ~
mkdir -p src
cd src
git clone https://github.com/ultrabug/py3status.git
git clone https://github.com/Yugge/py3status-uptime
cp py3status-uptime/uptime.py py3status/py3status/modules/

Then build/install py3status as per usual

cd py3status
sudo python setup.py install

Configuration

Configure the module as per usual.

The following configuration options are available:

• color - Color of the output, as hexstring (Default: #FFFFFF)
• format - Format string for the output, the uptime text will be inserted at %uptime (Default: "UP: %uptime")
• pretty - Sends the -p flag to the uptime command, giving a prettified output. (Default: False)

What is left to do?

An improvement would be to parse uptime -s and make it available with the strftime syntax.

Well, I probably will when I feel the module is completed.
