luastatusis a universal status bar content generator. It allows you to configure the way the data from event sources is processed and shown, with Lua.
Its main feature is that the content can be updated immediately as some event occurs, be it a change of keyboard layout, active window title, volume or a song in your favorite music player (provided that there is a plugin for it) — a thing rather uncommon for tiling window managers.
Its motto is:
No more heavy-forking, second-lagging shell-script status bar generators!

Above is i3bar with luastatus with Bitcoin price, time, volume, and keyboard layout widgets.
Key concepts
In short:
- plugin is a thing that decides when to call the callback function
widget.cb
and what to pass to it; - barlib ( bar lib rary) is a thing that decides what to with values that
widget.cb
function returns; - there are also derived plugins , which are plugins written in Lua that use regular plugins.
Examples
ALSA volume widget:
widget = { plugin = 'alsa', opts = { channel = 'PCM' }, cb = function(t) if t.mute then return {full_text = '[mute]', color = '#e03838'} else local percent = (t.vol.cur - t.vol.min) / (t.vol.max - t.vol.min) * 100 return {full_text = string.format('[%3d%%]', math.floor(0.5 + percent)), color = '#718ba6'} end end, event = function(t) if t.button == 1 then -- left mouse button os.execute('urxvt -e alsamixer &') end end }
GMail widget (uses the derived plugin imap
):
--[[ -- Expects 'credentials.lua' to be present in the current directory; it may contain, e.g., -- return { -- gmail = { -- login = 'john.smith', -- password = 'qwerty' -- } -- } --]] credentials = require 'credentials' widget = luastatus.require_plugin('imap').widget{ host = 'imap.gmail.com', port = 993, mailbox = 'Inbox', use_ssl = true, timeout = 2 * 60, handshake_timeout = 10, login = credentials.gmail.login, password = credentials.gmail.password, error_sleep_period = 60, cb = function(unseen) if unseen == nil then return nil elseif unseen == 0 then return {full_text = '[-]', color = '#595959'} else return {full_text = string.format('[%d unseen]', unseen)} end end, event = [[ -- separate-state event function local t = ... -- obtain argument of this implicit function if t.button == 1 then -- left mouse button os.execute('xdg-open https://gmail.com &') end ]] }

Installation
cmake . && make && sudo make install
You can specify a Lua library to build with: cmake -DWITH_LUA_LIBRARY=luajit .
You can disable building certain barlibs and plugins, e.g. cmake -DBUILD_PLUGIN_XTITLE=OFF .
You can disable building man pages: cmake -DBUILD_DOCS=OFF .
Getting started
It is recommended to first have a look at the luastatus' man page .
Then, read the barlib's and plugins' documentation, either via directly viewing barlibs/<name>/README.rst
and plugins/<name>/README.rst
files, or via installing the man pages and reading luastatus-barlib-<name>(7)
and luastatus-plugin-<name>(7)
.
Barlib-specific notes on usage follow.
i3
luastatus-i3-wrapper
should be specified as the i3bar's status command in the i3 config, e.g.:
bar { status_command cd ~/.config/luastatus && exec luastatus-i3-wrapper -B no_separators time-battery-combined.lua alsa.lua xkb.lua
See also README for i3 and examples for i3 .
dwm
luastatus should simply be launched with -b dwm
, e.g.:
luastatus -b dwm -B separator=' • ' alsa.lua time-battery-combined.lua
See also README for dwm and examples for dwm .
lemonbar
lemonbar
should be launched with luastatus-lemonbar-launcher
, e.g.:
luastatus-lemonbar-launcher -p -B#111111 -p -f'Droid Sans Mono for Powerline:pixelsize=12:weight=Bold' -- -Bseparator=' ' alsa.lua time-date.lua
See also README for lemonbar and examples for lemonbar .
stdout
luastatus should be launched with luastatus-stdout-wrapper
; or write your own wrapper, see e.g. the wrapper for launching dvtm with luastatus .
See also README for stdout and and examples for stdout .
