# swaybar\_info
## About
swaybar\_info is a program to be utilized by swaybar that is used by the [Sway
tiling Wayland compositor](https://swaywm.org).
## Usage
# build the "release" build of the program
cargo build --release
# put the "release" build somewhere to be used by swaybar
cp ./target/release/swaybar_info ~/.config/sway/
Put the following in your `~/.config/sway/config`:
bar {
position top
# Set --netdev=<device> such that <device> is the network device you
# want to monitor. You can omit --netdev=<device>, but that will also
# cause the program to omit network traffic stats.
status_command $HOME/.config/sway/swaybar_info --netdev=enp7s0
# A "built-in" for "acpi -b" is available, and can be activated with the
# --acpi-builtin flag:
#status_command $HOME/.config/sway/swaybar_info --acpi-builtin
# One can use the "--regex-cmd=<cmd>[SPLIT]<args...>[SPLIT]<regex>" option like so:
#status_command $HOME/.config/sway/swaybar_info --regex-cmd="acpi[SPLIT]-b[SPLIT][0-9]+%.*"
# This example gets battery info into the bar.
# Multiple args should be separated with "[SPLIT]".
# Note that the <args...> portion is optional.
}
