i3status-custom-pim
i3status-custom-pim is a tool to output JSON content for users of the pimutils
The output can be used for the custom block of i3status-rust to display events or due dates in the i3 status bar.
Requirements
In order to build a binary, you need the Rust language and the package manager cargo. And of course you need the pimutils khal and/or
todoman. Please refer to the documentation on the project pages in order to install and configure these tools.
Install
There are no packaged versions yet, so you have to compile i3status-cutom-pim yourself.
$ cargo install --git https://github.com/theamma/i3status-custom-pim i3status-custom-pim
By default, this will install the binary to ~/.cargo/bin/i3status-custom-pim. Please make sure, this is in your $PATH or copy the binary to an appropriate location (like /usr/local/bin).
You may also compile manually
$ git clone https://github.com/theamma/i3status-custom-pim
$ cd i3status-custom-pim && cargo build --release
Configuration
To add the blocks, add this to your i3status-rs configuration
[[block]]
block = "custom"
command = ''' i3status-custom-pim -k '''
json = true
[[block]]
block = "custom"
command = ''' i3status-custom-pim -t -i tasks -w 20160 -c 7200'''
json = true
Thresholds for warning or critical state can be given via commandline switches. In warning state the widget will change the background colour to orange, in critical state to red.
Please run i3status-custom-pim --help for available options.
