mi3stat is a multithreaded drop-in replacement for 'i3status', a neat tool generating status information for minimalistic status bars like i3bar, dzen2, xmobar, etc.
I wrote mi3stat because of i3status' lack of a memory gauge, and because I was looking for a small coding project to keep up C skills.
The NVIDIA module requires the nvidia-settings binary in /usr/bin in order
to read GPU temperatures.
If support for the Aquaero 5 is enabled (make enable_aq5=1), a copy of
aerotools-ng is required (see https://github.com/lynix/aerotools-ng).
mi3stat supports JSON or plaintext output mode, the latter chosen by -t as
command line argument.
A configuration file can be specified using the -c argument, by default
mi3stat will look for ~/.mi3stat.conf. See the following section for an
example configuration file.
The configuration file is an ini-styled plain text file holding en enumeration of the modules to be loaded and several options. An example that shows all available modules and their options is shown below. The option interval is optional and defaults to 1 second.
[global]
interval = 1
[module0]
type = cpu_usage
prefix = CPU:
[module1]
type = cpu_temp
interval = 3
sensor = /sys/bus/platform/devices/coretemp.0/temp3_input
[module2]
type = mem_usage
prefix = MEM:
interval = 5
[module3]
type = nvidia_temp
prefix = GPU:
interval = 7
[module4]
type = aquaero5_temp
prefix = WATER:
interval = 5
[module5]
type = disk_free
prefix = HOME:
interval = 61
path = /home
[module6]
type = disk_free
prefix = ARCH:
interval = 31
pata = /mnt/archive
[module7]
type = net_rates
prefix = ETH:
device = eth0
[module8]
type = clock
interval = 9
format = %a %d. %b %H:%M
