# calendar
|
|
|
|
Shows the current date and time. When clicked, a calendar popup is created.
|
|
|
|
This is similar to the rofi-calendar blocklet, but without the rofi dependency and with a slightly more advanced popup (at least in my opinion).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
# Dependencies
|
|
|
|
* yad
|
|
* xdotool (for positioning of the popup)
|
|
|
|
# Installation
|
|
|
|
* Copy the script into your directory of choice, e.g. ~/.i3blocks/blocklets
|
|
* Give it execution permission (`chmod +x calendar`)
|
|
* Add the script to your i3blocks.conf, for example like this:
|
|
|
|
```ini
|
|
[calendar]
|
|
command=$SCRIPT_DIR/calendar
|
|
interval=1
|
|
LABEL=
|
|
DATEFMT=+%H:%M:%S
|
|
# SHORTFMT=+%H:%M:%S
|
|
HEIGHT=180
|
|
WIDTH=220
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
* Add `for_window [class="Yad"] floating enable` to your i3 config file.
|
|
Unfortunately this is neccessary [because of a bug in `yad`](https://sourceforge.net/p/yad-dialog/tickets/301/).
|
|
You may skip this step if you want to open the calendar popup as a normal tile instead.
|
|
|
|
# Configuration
|
|
|
|
Parameters _[deprecated!]_:
|
|
|
|
* `-f FMT`: date/time format (default _+%a %d.%m.%Y %H:%M:%S_)
|
|
* `-W WIDTH`: width of the window (default _200_)
|
|
* `-H HEIGHT`: height of the window (default _200_)
|
|
|
|
Additionally you may want to
|
|
|
|
* change the placement of the popup
|
|
* change the parameters for `yad` to change the appearance of the popup
