Re: Paconky: displays repo and AUR pkg info in conky

Hi Xyne,

thanks a lot, this is exactly what i wanted!


EDIT: almost there.... but i'll try myself before.

now i get the right behaviour but one thing: when everything is up-to-date i don't want to have only

local packages:   up-to-date

but

[core]: up-to-date
[extra]: up-to-date
[comm]:up-to-date

etcetera.

what i mean is: the repos adn aur should always been shown, what changes it's their status. between up-to-date and $n pkgs.

cheers


EDIT 2:

commenting  the if condition on no pkgs did it!!

thanks a lot Xyne

Re: Paconky: displays repo and AUR pkg info in conky

Hi Xyne,

just a quick request fro help:

with this code:

#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use warnings;

use Xyne::Arch::Bauerbill;

my $n_threads = 1;

my $bb = Xyne::Arch::Bauerbill->new({autoload=>1});
$bb->{AUR}->{CALLBACK}->{QUIET} = 1;
$bb->{PowerpillConf}->set_value('Threads', $n_threads);
$bb->{AUR}->{THREADS} = $n_threads;

my @repopkgs = sort $bb->get_upgradable_pkgnames();
my @aurpkgs = sort $bb->{AUR}->get_upgradable();

my %versions;
$versions{$_} = ($bb->{AUR}->get_versions($_))[0] foreach @aurpkgs;
$versions{$_} = $bb->get_sync_db_pkg_ver($_) foreach @repopkgs;

my $groups = $bb->group_pkgnames_by_repo(@repopkgs);

foreach my $reponame ($bb->get_repo_list)
{
  if (ref($groups->{$reponame}) eq 'ARRAY')
  {
    &display($reponame, @{$groups->{$reponame}});
  }
  else
  {
    &display($reponame);
  }
}

if (@aurpkgs)
{
  &display('AUR',@aurpkgs);
}
                                                                                                                                                                                   
                                                                                                                                                                                   
sub display                                                                                                                                                                        
{
  my ($name,@pkgs) = @_;
  my $msg;
  if (@pkgs)
  {
    my $n = scalar(@pkgs);
    $msg = ($n > 1) ? "$n new pkgs" : '1 new pkg';
  }
  else
  {
    $msg = "up-to-date";
  }
  print '${color1}[${color1}'.$name.'${color1}]${alignr}${color1}'.$msg.'${voffset 0}${color1}'."\n";
}

I get the wanted output result but it always show up-to-date even if there are packages to upgrade (ie: I issue pacman -Syu and upgrade them). Do miss anything?

thanks

It could, but then it would need to be run as root. The cronjob is a much safer and simpler solution.

Re: Paconky: displays repo and AUR pkg info in conky

How do I tell paconky to use a newline for output? The manual says that "Blank lines [in the configuration file] are included to facilitate conky formatting", but that doesn't seem to be the case. Maybe I'm misunderstanding something.

Configuration file:

Main: %MSG%
%PKG_REPO%/%PKG_NAME% %PKG_VER%

AUR: %AUR_MSG%
aur/%AUR_PKG_NAME% %AUR_PKG_VER%

Example expected output:

Main: 3 packages
extra/allegro 4.4.1.1-1
extra/bluez 4.71-1
community/libtorrent-rasterbar 0.15.2-1

AUR: 3 packages
aur/flvtool2 1.0.6-3
aur/hwinfo 18.1-5
aur/libx86emu 1.1-27

Example actual output:

Main: 3 packages
extra/allegro 4.4.1.1-1
extra/bluez 4.71-1
community/libtorrent-rasterbar 0.15.2-1
AUR: 3 packages
aur/flvtool2 1.0.6-3
aur/hwinfo 18.1-5
aur/libx86emu 1.1-27

You understood... Bash didn't. tongue

For whatever reason, the command that I was using to append the parsed lines to a variable ignored newlines (cat + heredocs). It should work now.

Re: Paconky: displays repo and AUR pkg info in conky

Thanks for the update. The spacing now works properly here. Awesome.

One problem I noticed. paconky now prints the following error messages when running.

/usr/bin/paconky: line 80: get_upgradable_repo_pkgs: command not found
/usr/bin/paconky: line 88: get_upgradable_aur_pkgs: command not found

I'm running bash version 4.1.7(2)-release.

Re: Paconky: displays repo and AUR pkg info in conky

Sorry, I forgot to undo one of my debugging changes. Try paconky>=2010.09.27.2-1.

Re: Paconky: displays repo and AUR pkg info in conky

I really like this script, but I'm having one issue with it.    When the system comes up, and conky is started for the first time, it will run the script, but then the script doesn't seem to be running every hour.   It will not display updated info until I manually kill and restart conky.   Here are my configs, please tell me if there is anything obviously wrong.

I'm calling the script from .conkyrc with this line:

${voffset -20}${execpi 3600 paconky /home/beelzebud/.paconky}

My .paconky file looks like this:

#SET AUR_MSG_0 up to date
#SET AUR_MSG_1 1 new AUR pkg
#SET AUR_MSG_N %AUR_N% new AUR pkgs
#SET MSG_0 up to date
#SET MSG_1 1 new Arch pkg
#SET MSG_N %N% new Arch pkgs
#
${if_match "%MSG%" != "up to date"}${GOTO 1200}${color0}%MSG%${endif}
${if_match "%AUR_MSG%" != "up to date"}${GOTO 1200}${color0}%AUR_MSG%${endif}

As I said, if i manually restart conky, it seems to be working, it just doesn't seem to be executing the script every hour with the execpi command.

Re: Paconky: displays repo and AUR pkg info in conky

You'll need to use Conky's execpi command for that. The Conky manual has a nice write up on the command, and Xyne provides an example in his first post.

Re: Paconky: displays repo and AUR pkg info in conky

execpi is what I'm using.    What I'm thinking is that it might be my if_match commands interfering with it.   perhaps I should try a way to hide the 'up to date' status with that command from the conkyrc file.

Re: Paconky: displays repo and AUR pkg info in conky

Ah, sorry. I didn't see your use of execpi there.

It might have something to do with the if_match clauses, but that's just a guess. I've been running paconky for a while now without the issue you're describing, but I also don't use the if logic that you do.

If you'd like, I could post my configuration file for you to test.

Re: Paconky: displays repo and AUR pkg info in conky

Posting a follow up.   My problem was more due to my ignorance than anything.   I missed the part about setting up a cron job.   big_smile   I also found a much more elegant solution than using if_match commands.   Just leave the 'up to date' line blank.    smile

Re: Paconky: displays repo and AUR pkg info in conky

Hi all,

@Xyne:

conky got updated and now your script integration is upsetting the formatting. (now conky takes 80% of the screen, repos side of the shown seem to be the culprit)

i don't know what it could be but let us know if you fix it.

thanks

EDIT:

here they go two screenies: before (working) and after (broken)

What do you mean by "script integration"?
Which script are you using?
What is the output of the script on a command line?

Very nice desktop btw. What icon set is that?

${execpi 3600 .conkyscripts/paconky.pl}

there's no output for script invocation by hand.

There's nothing that I can do about it. I recommend that you downgrade conky until a bugfix is released.

The script has to output something, otherwise nothing would show up in conky.  hmm
It doesn't matter though as this seems to be a conky issue.

I'm following that thread now, and the issue on conky bugtracker.

Sorry to have thought it was your script's fault but I noticed that taking the execpi script.pl line out wasn't causing the problem.
But now we know that is somehow related to execpi itself.

Thanks for support.

Re: Paconky: displays repo and AUR pkg info in conky

Xyne, thanks for the recent of the script so we can use it with the latest conky.  I still have alignment issues, it's probably something easy I can alter, although I can't see what it is.  Screenshot here

@forkboy
You need to use a monospace font for the alignment to work properly, assuming that you're using the second script on the project page.
