Conky v1.9 Thread

^ I tried that one from the tar but there are a couple of files missing...

/home/kitsune/.conky/lua/lwifitz-allcombined[dk75mod].lua

and

conky-vnstat-month.sh

mrpeachy · 2012-10-31 18:28:32

@dk75
so now you can code using lua/cairo directly in the conkyrc?
i tried installing the deb but got some missing dependancy issues, will try and track them down and see if i can get it running

^ FYI mrpeachy, it installed fine on my Debian Sid system. I was lucky enough that all dependencies were installed already.

Then use anything else - it was as to show how settings and "TEXT" block are in LUA conkyrc.

Settings are one table, and "TEXT" block is as string. But as inside of this string can be single or double quote chars, then it is enclosed in long brackets.
If you want to comment out some instructions without deleting it from "TEXT" block, you just close string before this instruction, add concatenation (".."), comment out what you want in LUA style, and then open up a string again, like:

conky.text = [[${alignc}This is a test]] ..
-- this line is commented out
[[This line is after "commented" one, but.. ]] .. --[[you can comment out inside]] [[there is 'comment' inside this line]]

No, you still need to use '${lua}' to use functions from script and 'lua_load' to load the script.
I've thought that at least we could use LUA variables and table directly from conkyrc without need for 'loadstring' function in LUA script - unfortunately it's not the case too.

Next time packaging, I must add more packet as dependencies to it, at least essential one.
I've done 'dpkg-depcheck -d ./configure' as required and copied packages from it to 'debian/control' but it seems not enough.

I see that you are having a good time conkying with v2.0, but here I come with a quick question (in the old one)
How can I draw a block of text in lua? Lets assume there is a text file with many lines of stuff and I want to draw it on the screen, line by line. How?

Is this the way?

local file = io.popen("cat /here/is/the/habababa.txt")
    for line in file:lines() do
    s,f,used=string.find(line,"%a*(.*)\n")   -- this is the stuff I dont quite undestand...
    end
file:close()

Or there is other way?

Thanks in advance !

thats almost it
if it is a text file then you can simply use

local file=io.open("/path/to/file.txt")

this is my first thought how to do it

linetab={}
local file=io.open("/path/to/file.txt")
    for line in file:lines() do
    table.insert(linetab,line)
    end
file:close()
linegap=15
xposition=20
yposition=20
font="mono"
fontsize="12"
cairo_set_source_rgba(cr,1,1,1,1)
cairo_select_font_face (cr, font, CAIRO_FONT_SLANT_NORMAL, CAIRO_FONT_WEIGHT_NORMAL);
cairo_set_font_size (cr, fontsize)
for i=1,#linetab do
cairo_move_to(cr,xposition,yposition+((i-1)*linegap))
cairo_show_text(cr,linetab[i])
cairo_stroke (cr)
end

this part

    s,f,used=string.find(line,"%a*(.*)\n")   -- this is the stuff I dont quite undestand...

is if you want to get a particular piece of information out of the line instead of the whole line

re conky2 - so far it sounds like conky2 isn't the total overhaul of conky that was expected
particularly if lua isn't any more integrated into the conkyrc than it was before

Tommy311 · 2012-11-01 01:25:51

Ok,now I understand.
But Im curious if its the string itself that cant store multiple lines,or the cairo drawing that doesnt know how to handle text blocks?

(BTW, Im sending this from a SonyEricson j10i2 via Opera Mini. Its pure awesomnes that this little baby can keep me online practically 24/7 everywhere.
F U smartphones! )

mrpeachy · 2012-11-01 01:27:28

it is the limitation of cairo text, you have to specify an x,y coordinate for every instance of text to show
this is what i get if i dont break up the lines first

What exactly do I do when I Want to add something to conky? In tint2 I just select all and paste the new tint2 config.

This is the one I want

machinebacon · 2012-11-01 08:31:36

Download the file from devianart
Unpack it with the archiver tool to a new folder
Copy the .conkyrc file to ~/.conkyrc
Copy the font (BankGthd) to ~/.fonts/ (create the folder if not existing)
Log out and back, to be sure.

GotSupreme · 2012-11-01 08:38:21

Wait. Confused. what exactly is ''Copy the .conkyrc file to ~/.conkyrc''

So.. I open up conkyrc and then I right click > select all > paste the code from the conkyrc in that file I donwloaded?

chameleon · 2012-11-01 09:22:33

^If you already have conky you will have a .conkyrc in your home folder.
~/ = home folder.
Rename or delete the .conkyrc in your home folder.
Paste the dowloaded .conkyrc into your home folder.
From a terminal;

killall conky
conky

Could you try this DEB (amd64, Debian Sid/unstable) and see if you have problem with dependencies?

Is that with regard to conky v2? Or something to do with cairo in a LUA script?

dk75 · 2012-11-01 17:11:08

It's limitation of Cairo internal text routine, which is called as "toy text api" by Cairo developers.

If only Conky developers could add LUA Cairo Pango to Conky... then whoa... londonali1010 tried to convince them for that... 3 years ago, already?
Another whoa.

And since I have over 500 conkys here, I test commands, scripts and OPC's (Conkys; not cigarettes) is it really worth converting them all, or the 11/13 I use, to the format for Conky v2 ?

What advantage does this Conky v2 have over Conky v1.9.0-2 ?

There is a conkyrc converter for Conky2 - /usr/local/share/doc/conky-2.0.0_pre/convert.lua ; which is doing the job on the fly, but you can do it manually if you want, and correct resulting file if errors occur.

As for question "is it really worth converting"... so far, Conky2 isn't even listed as alpha/beta on Conky site so it might be long time or not at all when it hit release stadium, worth of use by normal user.
So, hard to tell.
Maybe, if more users will use it, developers will start to work on it harder, maybe adding more plug-ins (Pango, please!) to Cairo would be easier in Conky2... dunno.

OK. So this is a preview of 'what might become' - something to play with.

Guess it boils down to personal choice at the moment though. Since 'convert.lua' isn't converting any of my daily conkys I'd have to say it will be an enormous job to do them manually.

I'll play with it though, I have the deb here and going back and forth between the two versions isn't all that hard.

Thanks dk75.

So I have decided that I would make up a little conky tutorial file that has some of my best scripts to save space.
I started making them when I ran into a laptop that had a short screen, that even my smallest conky at the time ran off.
So to make sure that I could keep the conky on the screen I started making things compress when not active.

Alright so here is the body of my conky tutorial, I do have a real conky that works and everything, this came out of.
If you would like it please let me know and I will do my best to get it to you.
People with netbooks will probably benifit from this the most, as well as anyone that likes the minimal look but still wants all the information.

Oh, please ignore the line ## this only works when it is in the original file.

----------------------------------------
  Swap Information
----------------------------------------
 this is just a simple method to compress the
 swap information when it is not active

 "Cable Unplugged"

 down speed and down speed graph. they will
 only show up if your down speed rises to
 1.0 or higher.

 line 91 and 92 are one thing, these are your
 up speed and up speed graph. they will
 only show up if your up speed rises to
 1.0 or higher.

----------------------------------------
  File System
----------------------------------------
 now for this section i have 2 different
 scripts. the first one i will be showing is
 for removable media or atleast that is what
 i use it for. the second script i will be 
 showing is for other internal hard drives.
 i will be showing a example of the script
 configured for a windows partition.

 script 1: removable media
 this will stay as DriveName: Disconnected,
 till the media is connected and mounted.
 other useful code i have added to this
 is, the warning script (simple used percent
 monitor via if_match). the warning script
 will activate when the drive reads as 75%
 or more full, then the used percent will
 change from green to red and flashing to
 catch your eye
 (please see note / script section for more
 information)

${if_existing /media/DriveName}DriveName:$alignr${fs_used /media/DriveName} / ${fs_size /media/DriveName}
${fs_bar 5,130 /media/DriveName}${if_match "74"<"${fs_used_perc /media/DriveName}"}${color red}${alignr}${blink ${fs_used_perc /media/DriveName}}%${color}${else}${alignr}${color green}${fs_used_perc /media/DriveName}%${color}${endif} : ${fs_free_perc /media/DriveName}%${else}DriveName:${alignr}Disconnected${endif}

 script 2: internal hard drives
 as i said this one will be configured for a
 windows partion (windows 7 is what i set mine
 up on). so things that are needed for this to
 work. 1: a folder in your media folder called
 "windows" (easy way "sudo mkdir /media/windows").
 2: your windows partition mounted to this folder
 (easy way sudo mount /dev/"partition" /media/windows)
 3: this script does have a depend file (change as needed)
 "/media/windows/pagefile.sys". the pagefile.sys
 is a file that i believe every windows system
 has, that is why i used it.

 until the partition is mounted, it reads
 "windows-partition: unmounted". once the
 partition is mounted it will expand showing you
 your drives information. i have also add the 
 warning script to this, so that you can track your
 windows system the same as the removable media
 script

Windows-partition:${if_existing /media/windows/pagefile.sys}$alignr${fs_used /media/windows} / ${fs_size /media/windows}
${fs_bar 5,130 /media/windows}${if_match "50"<"${fs_used_perc /media/windows}"}${color red}${alignr}${blink ${fs_used_perc /media/windows}}%${color}${else}${alignr}${color green}${fs_used_perc /media/windows}%${color}${endif} : ${fs_free_perc /media/windows}%${else}${alignr}Not Mounted${endif}

----------------------------------------
  Note / Script sections
----------------------------------------

 warning script all by it's self

 this will be a little tutorial on how the
 warning script works. this script works via
 the if_match statement, this one's argument
 is stated as:
   "74"<"${fs_used_perc /media/DriveName}"
 this simply means that if the dirve used percent
 hits 75 or higher is should do what is listed
 first. so the first choice is used percent
 red and blinking, if used percent is below 75
 it will choose the second choice marked by
 "${else}", in this case used percent green.
 this is all finished up with "${endif}" so that
 the if_match statment knows we are done

 ${if_match "74"<"${fs_used_perc /media/DriveName}"}${color red}${alignr}${blink ${fs_used_perc /media/DriveName}}%${color}${else}${alignr}${color green}${fs_used_perc /media/DriveName}%${color}${endif}

 Warning lights

 now i did not add this into the above section
 because it doesn't save space unless you want
 to use it instead of the more traditional ways
 or you don't care to know the exact information
 also i have ran into some odd behavior from it
 please see warning below for more information
 on the issues that it has some times.

 so there are 4 warning lights here: ram, swap,
 system partition, and home partition.
 each light has 3 settings they are written
 backwards in the code but they are:
  normal:           is green text
  level 1 warning:  is orange text
  level 2 warning:  is red text that flashes

  normal:   0-49%
  level 1:  50-89%
  level 2:  90-100%
 these vaules are easy to change all you have to
 do is replace the "89" or "49" with any number
 you would like inside quotes, like "".
 other things that are easy to change would be 
 the colors and the final green texts is not
 really needed but it is nice to have a place
 holder so that you know how much room your 
 lights will take up. i have my lights in their
 own conky all side by side. as the lights side
 by side would not fit so well in this small
 conky and so that it will make it easier to
 to take only the ones you want, i will be
 seperating them. the order is the same as i 
 stated before:
  ram
  swap
  system partition
  home partition

 also the system partition makes for a good base
 when making lights for other partitions as it
 only has a "/" for the path

  Warning:
 please also note some times the lights have
 problems they may change levels for a moment,
 for no visible reasons or they may sit at the
 wrong level. my ram light likes to sit at
 level 2 warning when it doesn't need to, this
 is a simple fix, just flip the < to > and it
 should be fine. the switching for no reason i
 do not know how to fix, so i can not help you on
 that. i have had no problems with the partition
 warning lights so i would tentatively call them
 stable, but the ram and swap are a different story.

i tried installing the deb but got some missing dependancy issues, will try and track them down and see if i can get it running
Could you try this DEB (amd64, Debian Sid/unstable) and see if you have problem with dependencies?

Thanks dk75... tried it, got this

Error: Dependency is not satisfiable:
libmicrohttpd10

i should probably mention that i am using linux mint 12

[quote=mrpeachy]^if you look at the chronograph lua you will have the centers of all the dials set as variables\

set up a the color then

but it is important to draw the circle BEFORE you draw the hands, dots and titles, otherwise it will cover them up[/quote]

And optional, I'm using it: draw-bg.lua - this version has a LUA calendar in it as well (not in use here.)

--[[Background originally by londonali1010 (2009)
    ability to set any size for background mrpeachy 2011
    ability to set variables for bg in conkyrc dk75

  the change is that if you set width and/or height to 0
  then it assumes the width and/or height of the conky window

so:

Above and After TEXT  (requires a composite manager or it blinks!)

 lua_load ~/wea_conky/draw_bg.lua
 TEXT
 ${lua conky_draw_bg 10 0 0 0 0 0x000000 0.4}

OR Both above TEXT (no composite manager required - no blinking!)

 lua_load ~/wea_conky/draw_bg.lua
 lua_draw_hook_pre draw_bg 10 0 0 0 0 0x000000 0.5
 TEXT

Note
${lua conky_draw_bg 20 0 0 0 0 0x000000 0.4}
  See below:        1  2 3 4 5 6        7

${lua conky_draw_bg corner_radius x_position y_position width height color alpha}

covers the whole window and will change if you change the minimum_size setting

1 = 20             corner_radius
2 = 0             x_position
3 = 0             y_position
3 = 0             width
5 = 0             height
6 = 0x000000      color
7 = 0.4           alpha

######### calendar function ##################################################

then to use it, you activate the calendar function BELOW TEXT like this

i should probably mention that i am using linux mint 12

This might help if you don't run into dependency problems, check the list of dependencies:

thanks sector11
but to be honest i cant see any particular reason to switch to conky2 at the moment
i think i'll wait until it is officially released
