Génial ce petit programme appellé #swiftBar sur mac os x qui permet d'écrire un script en shell permettant d'afficher des infos directement dans la barre des menus !
Released version 1.5.0 of https://github.com/unixorn/lima-xbar-plugin
lima-xbar-plugin works with both xbar and swiftbar to add a #macos menubar item to control your lima VMs and containers.
Thanks to new contributors github/pythoninthegrass and github/deepjia for adding functionality.
I got really used to seeing my #sourcehut builds in the menu bar with #swiftbar, so I created a version of the script for #github actions I can use at work.
It uses the same focus checking script, so you can set them to "Personal" and "Work" respectively.
On gemini: gemini://r.bdr.sh/swiftbar_scripts.gmi
On the world wide web: https://r.bdr.sh/swiftbar_scripts.html
I did end up writing a #swiftbar utility that conditionally runs or halts a script depending on which focus mode is enabled.
My scripts now have this functionality available, and you can download it for use on your own plugins here: https://r.bdr.sh/swiftbar_scripts.html
This means I can control which menu bar items I have enabled depending on what my current activity is.
(Haven't tested this on #xbar)
added my first #swiftbar script to my page https://r.bdr.sh/swiftbar_scripts.html
The first one is to show your #sourcehut builds.
I can see myself building some other scripts. What I would find super handy is to load different plugins based on the current focus (eg. at work we use AWS/Github but for other projects I use Scaleway/Sourcehut)
