A script for polybar to display rofications.

This script will display a bell icon if there are no rofifications. If there are rofifications, it will display a ringing bell icon with the number of rofifications next to it.

Left-clicking the icon will spawn rofification-gui.

How to install

  1. Copy bin/rofication-status to ~/bin, make sure ~/bin is in your $PATH. We don't want the styles in the output, just the number of notifications.
  2. Copy the script in .config/polybar/scripts to ~/.config/polybar/scripts (or whatever location you prefer).
  3. Be sure to make both executable, and check that rofification-status gives the correct output (an integer).
  4. Add this to your polybar config:
    [module/rofication-status]
    type = custom/script
    exec = ~/.config/polybar/scripts/rofication.sh
    click-left = ~/.config/polybar/scripts/rofication.sh --show &
    
  5. The icons used are from Material Design Icons, so make sure to install the font and name it in your polybar config: font-3 = Material Design Icons:pixelsize=16;1
