Does not use any color codes. Separates values by the pipe symbol. This should
be used with i3bar and can be used for custom scripts.
+It's also possible to use the color_good, color_degraded, color_bad directives
+to define specific colors per module. If one of these directives is defined
+in a module section its value will override the value defined in the general
+section just for this module.
+
=== IPv6
This module gets the IPv6 address used for outgoing connections (that is, the
see it this way, because it tells me how worn off my battery is.), just specify
+last_full_capacity = true+.
+If you want the battery percentage to be shown without decimals, add
++integer_battery_capacity = true+.
+
If your battery is represented in a non-standard path in /sys, be sure to
modify the "path" property accordingly. The first occurence of %d gets replaced
with the battery number, but you can just hard-code a path as well.
=== CPU-Temperature
-Gets the temperature of the given thermal zone.
+Gets the temperature of the given thermal zone. It is possible to
+define a max_threshold that will color the temperature red in case the
+specified thermal zone is getting too hot. Defaults to 75 degrees C.
*Example order*: +cpu_temperature 0+
*Example format*: +T: %degrees °C+
+*Example max_threshold*: +42+
+
=== CPU Usage
Gets the percentual CPU usage from +/proc/stat+ (Linux) or +sysctl(3)+ (FreeBSD/OpenBSD).
=== Load
Gets the system load (number of processes waiting for CPU time in the last
-1, 5 and 15 minutes).
+1, 5 and 15 minutes). It is possible to define a max_threshold that will
+color the load value red in case the load average of the last minute is
+getting higher than the configured threshold. Defaults to 5.
*Example order*: +load+
*Example format*: +%1min %5min %15min+
+*Example max_threshold*: 5
+
=== Time
-Formats the current system time. See +strftime(3)+ for the format.
+Outputs the current time in the local timezone.
+To use a different timezone, you can set the TZ environment variable,
+or use the +tztime+ module.
+See +strftime(3)+ for details on the format string.
*Example order*: +time+
*Example format*: +%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S+
+=== TzTime
+
+Outputs the current time in the given timezone.
+If no timezone is given, local time will be used.
+See +strftime(3)+ for details on the format string.
+The system's timezone database is usually installed in +/usr/share/zoneinfo+.
+Files below that path make for valid timezone strings, e.g. for
++/usr/share/zoneinfo/Europe/Berlin+ you can set timezone to +Europe/Berlin+
+in the +tztime+ module.
+
+*Example order*: +tztime berlin+
+
+*Example format*: +%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S %Z+
+
+*Example timezone*: +Europe/Berlin+
+
=== DDate
Outputs the current discordian date in user-specified format. See +ddate(1)+ for
need to use a slightly more complex wrapper script. There are examples in the
contrib/ folder, see http://code.i3wm.org/i3status/tree/contrib
+== SIGNALS
+
+When receiving +SIGUSR1+, i3status’s nanosleep() will be interrupted and thus
+you will force an update. You can use killall -USR1 i3status to force an update
+after changing the system volume, for example.
