Features

SysMon periodically fetches CPU and memory Usage, as well as CPU temperature and displays them on the status bar down below.

Installation

You can install this plugin using Lazy.nvim.

Simply add this line to your LunarVim config file at ~/.config/lvim/config.lua:

lvim.plugins = {
    {
        "git@github.com:BytePaws/sysmon.nvim",
        config = function()
            require('sysmon')
        end,
    },
}

After installation your system resources should be displayed as text in the status bar on the bottom of the screen. It will refresh every 2 seconds.

[!Note] While this plugin was developed specifically with and for LunarVim, it should be compatible with any NeoVim configuration using the lualine.nvim statusbar.

If you want, please share you experience with me in the discussion section so I can build a collection of supported configurations. Thank you :)

Configuration

SysMon allows you to choose the interval in which it should fetch your system information.

The default is 2 seconds. To change this, add this to your ~/.config/lvim/config.lua when including the plugin.

lvim.plugins = {
    {
        "git@github.com:BytePaws/sysmon.nvim",
        config = function()
            local sysmon = require('sysmon')
            sysmon.setup({ update_interval = 5000 }) -- Example: 5 seconds interval. Change this to the value you want.
        end,
    },
}

To use icons instead of the simple text lables for the fields enable the use_icon option.

lvim.plugins = {
    {
        "git@github.com:BytePaws/sysmon.nvim",
        config = function()
            local sysmon = require('sysmon')
            sysmon.setup({
                update_interval = 5000, -- Example: 5 seconds interval. Change this to the value you want.
                use_icons = true,
            })
        end,
    },
}

[!Note] This setting was tested using both kitty and konsole with NerdFonts installed.

Requirements

• NeoVim 0.5 or higher
• LunarVim v1.4 or newer (tested with 1.4, older versions might work, but I do not guarantee it)
• top needs to be installed to fetch cpu usage
• free needs to be installed to fetch memory usage
• lm-sensors package needs to be installed to fetch temperature

[!Note] This Plugin will only work on Linux systems. I do not plan on porting to any other platform at the moment as I only use Linux.

But I do welcome contributions to fix this predicament.

Todos

• Implement Unittests
• Experiment with icons instead of Text labels
• Fix content not refreshing when cursor is still
• Support other status bar plugins
• Support other neovim setups besides LunarVim
