Conky thread, show your work!

[excalibur1234]

i have rewritten my conkys into the new 1.10 syntax. as promised, i share them here.
i have uploaded an old screenshot, because there are no updates available at the moment. my conky setup still looks identical, except for 1 point: the weather display in my main conky does not work reliable anymore (there is a problem with the "execi" command in conky).

here is the source code for my main ~/.conky/conky file. it is only a bash script, which starts all the other conkys. this script is started by autostart with the command

Code: [Select]

~/.conky/conky

and the content of ~/.conky/conky is:

Code: [Select]

#!/bin/bash

sleep 1 && conky -q -d -c ~/.conky/conkyrc
sleep 2 && conky -q -d -c ~/.conky/conkyrc_updates
sleep 1 && conky -q -d -c ~/.conky/conkyrc_desktops


the next file is my main conky on the right edge of my screen: ~/.conky/conkyrc:

Very nice..! Good work.

thnx bro

[Holmes]

hi guys, good morning! i would like to know one thing. the following parameter is to identify updates:

Code: [Select]

${execpi 12000 checkupdates | wc -l}
the number 12000 is of minutes?

vlw fwi, Holmes

[eugen-b]

must be seconds

update_interval seconds
Update interval

http://conky.sourceforge.net/docs.html

[excalibur1234]

yes, that value is given in seconds.


the best and latest documentation for conky is no longer on conky's webpage but in the man page:

Code: [Select]

man conky

if you want to read it in your web browser, do:

Code: [Select]

man -H conky


p.s.: sorry, if eugen-b's link also offers the latest documentation (i.e. the documentation of conky 0.10 with the new syntax). i have not checked that.

[Holmes]

thank people and has changed my conky.

vlw fwi, Holmes

[papajoke]

hi,

checkupdates is the good method but it's very very slow, you can test in console
use fakeroot (code source)

[Fatboy]

 Hi Guys and Gals!
I need your help.
I'm running a custom conky and am trying to find code that will display my time as a alarm clock. Do I need to install a type of font? E.g. blackboxx?
Ideally, I would have the look of this digital clock at the middle-bottom of this conky:
http://helmuthdu.deviantart.com/art/CONKY-COLORS-244793180

[eugen-b]

@Fatboy, I don't think an LCD clock has s.th. to do with fonts. It is an algorithm of its own. There will be some implementation for conky somewhere. But could be also a font, "LCD" as search term might give a result.

[Fatboy]

Thanks eugen-b
Will look into it

My latest Openbox set up.

[CyberWolf2k14]

After a wee bit of work (mostly formatting), I created a printable version of the latest conky man pages.
In the attached file you will find it in 3 formats:
1. LibreOffice Writer
2. MS Word (I know, but included for balance)
3. PDF format

This way I figure if ya needed to have a "hardcopy" of it you can print it.

Enjoy.

CyberWolf2k14 Thank you .
