Collection of scripts to provide system information and controls as icons or textual display. Aimed atTint2, possible to apply in other panels. Also check thepsuinfo project.

Same aspsuinfo, these scripts were originally developed within thetint2-executors project, and a number of people contributed to it:

• edskeye is the author of all icons, and also a tester from the very beginning;
• natemaia improved thet2ec --volume command (later I applied similar solution in several other scripts);
• johanmalm provided the idea and a code snippet to attachjgmenu;
• PackRat,Head_on_a_Stick,sevenday4 have always good ideas.

Many thanks to you all!

t2ec --script [argument] [argument]

t2ec --volume - to draw the volume icon + current volume level

t2ec --volume -N - to print "Vol: 20%" instead of the icon

t2ec --volume [up] | [down] | [toggle] | [level] - to use as mouse event commands

Please install thet2ec package (AUR).

Forpsuinfo commands install thepsuinfo package (AUR).

[-N] replaces icons with text:

t2ec --desktop [-N]

t2ec --bbswitch [-N]

t2ec --volume [-N]

t2ec --brightness [-N]

t2ec --lbrightness [-N] (forligh optional package)

t2ec --battery [-l] | [-N] ([-l] for icon + level,[-N] for "Bri: " + level

t2ec --wifi [-N] | [-M'custom name']

t2ec --update -C[pacaur | trizen | yay] [-N] | [-M<custom_name]read more

t2ec --weather [-I<items>] [-A<api_key>] [-C<city_id>] [-U<units>] [-L<lang>]read more

t2ec --desktop [next] | [prev] | [<number>]

t2ec --volume [up] | [down] | [toggle] | [<level>]

t2ec --paswitch (assign to the volume icon click event to switch audio output with jgmenu)

t2ec --brightness [up] | [down] | [<level>]

t2ec --lbrightness [up] | [down] | [<level>] (for 'light-git' optional package)

t2ec --update -U<terminal>[:aur_helper]

t2ec --update -O displays n(O)tifiction with the last saved updates list

t2ec --weather -D[<city_id>]

Remember to uncheck 'Show icon' in executor if textual display selected!

t2ec --command menu - assigned to a mouse event (preferrably left/right click) allows to attach context menus to executors.

You need thejgmenu package (optional dependency) installed and initialized (jgmenu init).

Two of the commands have predefined menus:t2ec --update menu andt2ec --desktop menu will display:

Other commands launched with themenu argument will use a sample template. All templates are beingcreated in the~/.t2ecol hidden folder as soon, as you run the command for the first time.You may customize templates to your taste. To restore defaults, just remove the modified template.

Check thejgmenu reference document to learn more.

t2ec --zbox [bri] | [vol] - displays Zenity box to set volume | brightness level. Depends on 'zenity' and 'rof-git' optional packages.

This command may need some further clarification. To benefit from all its features, you should install thejgmenu optional package, and assignt2ec --update menu to the left click event:

Also the "Continous output" field is necessary. For graphical output (e.g.t2ec --update -Ctrizen) please setexecp_continuous = 2. For textual output (e.g.t2ec --update -Ctrizen -N setexecp_continuous = 1.

You need to edit the~/.t2ecol/menu-update.sh template, as your AUR helper and terminal are defined here. Defaultyay andtermite may, or may not work for you.

This script retrieves and displays weather data fromhttp://openweathermap.org © 2012 — 2018 OpenWeatherMap, Inc.

Icon display:

t2ec --weather

"Show icons" and"Cache icons" checked.Continous output = 2.

Textual display:

t2ec --weather -N | -M"My own text here" (or just-M for no name)

"Show icons" unchecked.Continous output = 1.

t2ec --weather -D[<city_id>]

Assign the command above to a mouse click event. Optional<city_id> you only need if the executor displays data for another city than specified in the config file (see below).

At the first use, the script creates the~/.t2ecol/weatherrc config file. You need to edit at least 2 values.

items = ctapi_key = your_api_key_kerecity_id = 2643743units = metric#lang = en#img_path = /home/user/my_custom_icons/# You may translate your output below:#_weather = Weather in_wind = Wind_cloudiness = Cloudiness_pressure = Pressure_humidity = Humidity_sunrise = Sunrise_sunset = Sunset

1. Obtain an API key athttp://openweathermap.org, enter it in theapi_key field;
2. find your city ID athttps://openweathermap.org/find, enter in thecity_id field.
3. You may also replace defaultmetric units withimperial, if you need to.

Theitems field defines data components to be shown:

[c]ity name, [s]hort description, [d]escription, [t]emperature, [p]ressure, [h]umidity, [w]ind

The script uses the system $LANG variable by default. In case it didn't work for you, or you just wanted another language, uncomment the#lang = en line, and replace English with your own lang code (2 chars).

If default icons by @edskeye don't go well with your desktop layout, you may uncomment the#img_path = /home/user/my_custom_icons/ line and enter a path to own icons. Originals you'll find in/usr/share/t2ec/ow*-svg.

This small script does not really provide internalization. However, you may translate the display into your language by editing fields which names start from_, e.g.:

_weather = Pogoda w

for "Weather in" in Polish.

Since v1.3 it's possible to display sunrise and sunset in the panel. Use the [S] in the command, e.g.:

t2ec --weather -IcstS

It makes sense to edit~/.t2ecol/weatherrc and replaceSunrise andSunset with appropriate glyphs.The symbols below come from the icomoon font.

If you need to see data for more than one location, you may override default~/.t2ec/weatherrc config setting:

t2ec --weather [-I<items>] [-A<api_key>] [-C<city_id>] [-U<metric>|<imperial>] [-L<lang>]

If you specified<city_id> in the main command, to see relevant data in the details notification you also need to do so:

t2ec --weather -D<city_id>

• v1.3-2 Bug int2ec --weather command hopefully fixed: unwanted accidental~/wget-log* files are now being sent to /dev/null.

• v1.3-1 [S]unrise/sunset panel item added; temperature units formatting altered.

• v1.2-1 Thet2ec --paswitch command added. It creates jgmenu to switch PulseAudio output.

• v1.1-3 Fix to vulnerability causing ValueError on numeric field names in openwathermap JSON.

• v1.1-2 Error handling for locale.getdefaultlocale() TypeError in the weather.py script.

• v1.1-1 Initial release as a separate project.
