Conky Exaile Python Script

[kaivalagi]

Any help would be appreciated

ERROR: Error loading template file: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'usr/share/conkyexaile/example/conkyExaile.template'
Traceback (most recent call last):

The answer really is in the error message, the example template you are pointing to with the command line options isn't there...

Thats the thing that confuses me, it IS there. I've checked and double checked, deleted the file, made a new one, still I get the same error.

Missing "/" at the start of the path?

"usr/share/conkyexaile/example/conkyExaile.template" should be "/usr/share/conkyexaile/example/conkyExaile.template" otherwise the script may try loading the file from a usr sub-folder somewhere...

You sir, are a gentleman and a squire. I never once picked up on that! Even though the other 3 scripts of yours I run have the "/", haha.

THANK YOU :3.

Can this script produce a progress bar? I don't see it in the template or options but it's mentioned once in this thread, so it's possible I'm being totally dense...?

The script can produce a percentage value for progress, which can be used along with the execibar function, e.g.:

${execibar 1 conkyExaile --datatype=PC}

Take a look at the conky documentation pages for more info on it if you get stuck, it should be simple enough though

Cheers

UPDATE

I have added cover art support to the script, now cover art image filepaths can be found by using the --datatype=CA option. This option will be useful to anyone using the $image function now available with conky v1.7.1+

Package changes can be seen here: https://launchpad.net/~m-buck/+archive/conky/+files/conkyexaile_2.05_source.changes

The apt packages should be available shortly, the first post has the new packages attached also

Edit: I forgot to update the README and the help output to detail the CA datatype availability...this will be updated in the next release whenever that is...
