Post your .conkyrc files w/ screenshots

**5BallJuggler** · March 1st, 2009

I would like to change the colour of the Bat bargraph, currently it is light blue, I would like to make the left side Red indicating low battery and the right side Green indicating a charged battery, here is my conkyrc

Is there anyone who can help?

Code:

i've tried using this format for the bar but it does not work:- ${memgraph 30,255 104E8B 00ff00}

Hey Bruce, do you happen to know How_To get conky to show your total downloads for a set amount of time?

I came across this very nice setup:

http://ubuntuforums.org/attachment.p...7&d=1235030952

And towards the bottom he has his total downloads for the day and month displayed. I can't figure out how he did that though. Like it says in the man pages the normal total downloads var resets after 4 GB.

@5BallJuggler: I don't think that any of the bars support gradient. Just the graphs

Gradient color in bar is not supported, you must realize bar is not graph.
For changing colour you must change the codigo:

Code:

${color #0077ff}Bat ${alignr}${battery_bar 6,255 BAT1}

To know the value you want you can use any color program like gcolor2, as well it's possibly use name color like:
${color red}

using vnstat and parse its output in a execi conky clause, pej:

Code:

jjgomera@ordenata:~$ vnstat
Database updated: Sun Mar  1 21:15:01 2009

	eth0

jjgomera@ordenata:~$ vnstat | tail -n3 | head -n1 | cut -d" " -f11-12
2.65 GB
jjgomera@ordenata:~$

and in conky:
${execi 30 vnstat | tail -n3 | head -n1 | cut -d" " -f11-12}

read vnstat manpage for more options, monthly, weekly download...

I'm using:

Code:

${font Zekton:size=10}${color2}Transfer Totals:$color$font

${font DejaVu Sans Mono:size=9}${color8}Today:$color${goto 55}${execi 300 vnstat | grep "today" | awk '{print $2 $3}'}${goto 140}${color7}Today:$color${goto 185}${execi 300 vnstat | grep "today" | awk '{print $5 $6}'}  
${color8}Week:$color${goto 55}${execi 300 vnstat -w | grep "current week" | awk '{print $3 $4}'}${goto 140}${color7}Week:$color${goto 185}${execi 300 vnstat -w | grep "current week" | awk '{print $6 $7}'} 
${color8}Month:$color${goto 55}${execi 300 vnstat -m | grep "`date +"%b '%y"`" | awk '{print $3 $4}'}${goto 140}${color7}Month:$color${goto 185}${execi 300 vnstat -m | grep "`date +"%b '%y"`" | awk '{print $6 $7}'}$font
${color0}${hr}$color

to get the attached results.

Unfortunately I don't have enough to see if it cuts off at the 4GB mark since my last install a week ago. And because it's day 1 of March, my month and today look the same.

Hey thanks a lot! This seems like a good program inside or outside of conky.

I've also been having problems getting any sort of information from my hardware such as temps, voltages, fan speeds, etc... I've tried vars like platform or hwmon without any success.

Would you recommend any good picture fonts? I've noticed a lot of people use fonts like pizzadude or openlogos. I'd like to be able to download (preferably with my package manager) but I'm not sure where I can get them. Any idea about this?

**Bannor** · March 1st, 2009

I have seen this post a thousand times I am embarassed to ask but here goes.

What is a .conkyrx ?
should I mess with it?
what can editing it do for me?
what is the allure of a custom file?
how do i read it?

a wiki address is probably my best answer huh?

**ScottG489** · March 1st, 2009

The .conkyrc file is what conky will read by default when it starts. It is the file you edit to configure how conky displays.

You definitely should mess with it. Look up different variables and put them in your .conkyrc file to get the output you want.

Editing it will make conky display what you want how you want.

The allure of a custom file is basically just changing it from the example one that comes with conky. You can use it or someone elses if you want but the awesome thing about conky is that its ridiculously customizable.

Its not all that hard to read. But knowing variables will help (even though most are self explanatory).

Check out this page:
Manual Page (all the variables and descriptions): http://conky.sourceforge.net/docs.html

**Bannor** · March 1st, 2009

can I copy these files to see what they do, without major issues?

**bikerider42** · March 1st, 2009

Thanks to all! after much work! and stealing many ideas from 589 pages here is mine! hope you like!

how to show the screenshot?

**nikoboxxx** · March 1st, 2009

Like many others on here.. I have gathered bits and pieces from different conky setups I have seen and adjusted them to my liking. I'm using the conckyforecast script, a twitter script displaying timeline, and a gmail script.

Check out davmac's conky on lifehacker and the simple conky 1.0 on gnome-look. Those were the main config files I used.
I am using gnome-do with the docky theme for the dock setup, and new clearlooks orange theme for emerald for the windows.

I may end up adding some now playing music if I find something good to display what songbird is playing.
