Bug#762517: ITP: i3blocks - highly flexible status line for the i3 window manager



Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist
Owner: Jason Pleau <jason@jpleau.ca>

* Package name: i3blocks
  Version: 1.2
  Upstream Author: Vivien Didelot <vivien@didelot.org>
* URL : https://github.com/vivien/i3blocks
* License : GPL-3
  Programming Lang: C
  Description: highly flexible status line for the i3 window manager.

It follows the i3bar protocol; outputs JSON text which can be parsed with i3bar to display useful information in the status bar such as the current time, system load, uptime, available package updates, and much more.

A configuration file holds the settings for each "block", which contains a script or a command that the user provides (upstream provides a few scripts). Blocks can be updated at a given internal, by a mouse click/wheel movement, or a signal.
