Log conky:

Thank you for the idea:

I've been in/out - over/under - up/down - left/right all day ... am I coming or going, I'm not sure?

What I am sure of is the list!

I came up with the idea from JuseBOX on the ARCH forums - and thought mrpeachy's "interactive" LUA script for conky would make a great conky for that!

So lets get this straight; not my idea, not my work, JuseBOX and mrpeachy own this.

It starts: http://crunchbanglinux.org/forums/post/197902/#p197902 (watch a video of it in action!)

Click on [Logs] -> the List:

Click on one: -> on [Close] go go back to [Logs] -

Select another: more ->

Yup, LUA is more than just a pretty face and eye candy ... it Works for ya!

Now I have to try the folding lines one.

call in conkyrc in a similar manner to this

in the conkyrc you also need to add this setting

own_window_title click_log

or you can set your own window title then edit towards the bottom of the script
so that any instances of click_log are replaced with the title you set
avoid spaces in title name

Yes, folks - interactive conkys are now available!
Imagine the possibilities!

Conky + lua sure is a lot of fun!

Although there is no real practical use to mine other than looking pretty.
I can't believe I put so much effort into something I won't even look at 99% of the time haha

My computer has a core i7 in it. It is a quad core with hyperthreading, so usually hardware monitors detects 8 cores (which is kind of hard to keep track of!!)
To deal with this, I wrote the circles that represent a core. The outline of the circle (green) will give a percentage of one thread, while the inside of the circle (purple) will keep track of the second.

A core with both threads running at 100% will then look like a circle with a green outline and a completely filled purple interior.
I am still playing around with color combos for more ideas.

Below is a comparison of my system in both extremes: idle (left) and full usage (right)

I would like to thank VirtualBox for making 100% cpu usage just one click away.

EDIT:
I realized I didn't actually share my configuration. That's not very acceptable. The configuration is actually a bit complicated, as each ring gets its own script that get's called up. This allows for the movement of individual gauges without messing up the rest of the system.

It's all on github found here:
https://github.com/LabDwellers/ConkyCon … ster/Zanty

Hi all,

I am trying to set up some "specific" conky config, but I can't find a way to do it. I wish to display a small country flag depending on my IP. What I am trying now, is to run a script in cron that grabs the source from the following page : http://aruljohn.com/details.php. Then it checks for specific string "lu.gif"; "us.guf" or "fr.gif", since my IP can be one of those 3 possibilities.

Here is my "flag.sh" script (but it is not working yet, and a big WIP, just checking if my IP is located in Luxembourg or not) :

#/bin/bash
curl -A firefox http://aruljohn.com/details.php > source.html &
if grep -q "^[^#]*lu.gif" source.html ; then rsync -av lu.gif flag.gif ; 
else rsync -av fr.gif flag.gif ; fi

The goal would be to get the country flag corresponding to the current WAN IP saved as flag.gif.

Then in my conkyflag conky config file, I have the following :

# .conkyrc by fabsh <fabsh@lamerk.org>
# Based on ideas and code from the CunchBang Linux forums at http://crunchbanglinux.org

# Add spaces to keep things from moving about? This only affects certain objects.
use_spacer none

TEXT
${image /home/nesousx/.config/conky/flag/flag.gif -p 0,5 -s 18x12}

Expected result would be to display the country flag in a corner of my screen, next to my tray icons (see screenshot).
Right now, the flag is correctly displayed at the desired location, however if I manually change the flag.gif after conky has been started it doesn't update it. I am thinking maybe the image is cached somehow/somewhere.

So my questions are. Has anyone done something similar, or do you have any idea on how to achieve this (fixing the 1st script and/or conky loading the update flag.gif image). Maybe it can be done with lua?

I don't do any script writing but if your IP's are static why not use ${if_match} and your own images/icons:

${if_match "${addr eth0}"=="000.000.000.00"}${image ~/Conky/images/lu.png -p 0,0 -s 30x10}${else}\
${if_match "${addr eth0}"=="111.111.111.11"}${image ~/Conky/images/us.png -p 0,0 -s 30x10}${else}\
${if_match "${addr eth0}"=="222.222.222.22"}${image ~/Conky/images/fr.png -p 0,0 -s 30x10}${else}\
${image ~/Conky/images/UN.png -p 0,0 -s 10x10}${endif}${endif}${endif}

UN.png would be an unknown IP.

Grab some really nice flag icons
http://www.famfamfam.com/lab/icons/flags/ (very small though)
or
http://www.veryicon.com/icons/flag/

I grabbed my country code here but hated the flag:

wget -O $HOME/IP_C.txt "http://www.phptutorial.info/iptocountry/"

Just an opinion but I would be more inclined to search for my "country" on the net and then based on the results use an archived image on my HDD. You could wrap that whole ${if_match} code inside an ${if_up} command:

if_up
 	(interface)
 	if INTERFACE exists and is up, display everything between $if_up and the matching $endif

${if_up wlan0\
  ${if_match "${addr eth0}"=="000.000.000.00"}${image ~/Conky/images/lu.png -p 0,0 -s 30x10}${else}\
  ${if_match "${addr eth0}"=="111.111.111.11"}${image ~/Conky/images/us.png -p 0,0 -s 30x10}${else}\
  ${if_match "${addr eth0}"=="222.222.222.22"}${image ~/Conky/images/fr.png -p 0,0 -s 30x10}${else}\
  ${image ~/Conky/images/UN.png -p 0,0 -s 10x10}${endif}${endif}${endif}}\
${else}${image ~/Conky/images/NOT.png -p 0,0 -s 10x10}${endif}

NOT.png is "not connected"

I like that layout. I have not used Xfce in years so this may not apply:

Have you tried: ~/.xsession

sleep 10; conky

Also, just as a side note, for info only;
- every one of your bars is: '6,80' - one command above TEXT can look after them all:

default_bar_size
Specify a default width and height for bars. Example: 'default_bar_size 0 6'. This is particularly useful for execbar and execibar as they do not take size arguments.

Beware the command above TEXT uses the width and height in reverse to the bar commands below TEXT, and with a space not a comma:

default_bar_size 80 6
TEXT

I did, it doesn't start (same when putting it in ~/.xinitrc).
Made a .desktop according to the wiki, doesn't work (other .desktop autostarts do). Same .desktop file works fine when started once XFCE is running.

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh the elegance of a simple conky and the complexity of a robotic limb!
sehr gut!

You're welcome.

Well how about a bash script in 'autostart' and or attached to an icon you can click on:

#!/bin/sh
if [ "$(pidof conky)" ]; then
    killall conky
      sleep 5 && conky &
    exit
else
      sleep 5 && conky &
    exit
fi

This, as a startup will see no conky running and run conky, if conky is running it will kill the process and restart it.
Mine is a bit more complicated, it starts 8 conkys - some on all desktops others only on desktop 2 or 3.

One more tip if I may... a LUA background vs the "image" background.
I use to use the "square" image set at certain levels of transparency: bk_10.png, bk_20.png, bk_30.png .. etc etc.

Then londonali1010, mrpeachy and dk75 came to the rescue with "the ultimate background LUA script" (my words not theirs). I don't do scripts, just use them. It can be used with or without a composite manager and all the "settings" are right there on the command line:

draw-bg.lua

--[[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 ~/path/to/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 ~/path/to/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}

Set 2,3,4 & 5 to '0' to cover the whole window, will change if you change those settings.

1 = 20             corner_radius
2 = 0             x_position
3 = 0             y_position

Well YEA! Nice.
Is that a TeoBigusGeekus weather script?
Love the layout.

xorgx3 · 2012-04-11 16:28:54

No, weather script is mrpeachy (http://crunchbanglinux.org/forums/topic … r-in-conky), with simple modifications

I'm glad that you like this
