polybar-scripts

This is a community project. We write and collect scripts for Polybar!

To find out how to write and use your own scripts, read Polybars wiki.

This repository is not an exact blueprint. I guess every script has to be customized to make your Polybar unique. We cannot guarantee that all scripts will work because many scripts are written for very specific purposes. But we're trying.

Your script isn't here yet? You have ideas to extend the scripts or descriptions? Send us your pull request or join us on freenode's #polybar.

Hall of Fame

Is this your first time here? You should definitely take a look at these scripts:

Setup

Save the script of your choice somewhere at ~/.config/polybar/.
Don't forget to make the script executable: chmod +x ~/.config/polybar/script.sh.
Copy the module settings into your configuration file.
Replace the appropriate icon strings in the script (e.g. replace #1 with 🎉).

all colors are beautiful
