Yabar has the following features:\n\n* Extremely configurable with easy configuration system using a single config file.\n* A growing set of ready-to-use internal blocks developed in plain c.\n* Pango font rendering with support of [Pango Markup Language](https://developer.gnome.org/pango/stable/PangoMarkupFormat.html).\n* Support for icons and images.\n* Support for transparency.\n* Multi-monitor support using RandR.\n* Entirely clickable.\n* Support for several environment variables to help button commands.\n* Multiple bars within the same session.\n\n**Warning**: Yabar is still in its infancy and far from being mature. Feel free to contribute or report bugs!\n\n## Terminology\n\nA Yabar session should contain one or more *bars* within the same session. Each bar should contain one or more *blocks*. Each block should display some useful info to the user (free memory, CPU temperature, etc...).\n\n## Installation\n\n### Packages\n\n#### ArchLinux\n\nAUR: [yabar](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/yabar/) and [yabar-git](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/yabar-git/)\n\n#### Debian\n\nYabar is available in the official repositories since Debian Stretch (9.0):\n```sh\n# apt install yabar\n```\n\n#### Ubuntu\n\n[yabar](http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=yabar\u0026searchon=names\u0026suite=all\u0026section=all) in [Yakkety Yak](http://packages.ubuntu.com/yakkety/yabar)\n\n#### NixOS / Nix\n\n[yabar](https://nixos.org/nixos/packages.html#yabar) is available in the official `nixpkgs` package set and can be installed easily:\n\n```sh\nnix-env -iA nixos.yabar\n```\n\nSince NixOS 18.03 (Impala) there's a [yabar-unstable](https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/blob/master/pkgs/applications/window-managers/yabar/unstable.nix) package which is built from the latest master.\n\n### From Source\nYabar initially requires a C compiler (e.g. gcc or clang), make as well as the libraries libconfig, cairo, pango and alsa. The feature `DYA_INTERNAL_EWMH` in `Makefile` additionaly xcb-ewmh (or xcb-util-wm in some distros) and the feature `-DYA_ICON` requires gdk-pixbuf2. These dependencies can be installed through your distribution's package manager:\n\n* Fedora: `dnf install libconfig-devel cairo-devel pango-devel gdk-pixbuf2-devel alsa-lib-devel xcb-util-wm-devel wireless-tools-devel libxkbcommon-devel libxkbcommon-x11-devel asciidoc`\n* Debian / Ubuntu: `apt-get install libcairo2-dev libpango1.0-dev libconfig-dev libxcb-randr0-dev libxcb-ewmh-dev libxcb-icccm4-dev libgdk-pixbuf2.0-dev libasound2-dev libiw-dev libxkbcommon-dev libxkbcommon-x11-dev libxcb-xkb-dev`\n\nYou can install yabar as follows:\n\n\t\t$ git clone https://github.com/geommer/yabar\n\t\t$ cd yabar\n\t\t$ make yabar\n\t\t$ sudo make install\n\nIf you use libconfig 1.4.x (still used in Ubuntu 14.04 and Debian Jessie), please type `export CPPFLAGS=-DOLD_LIBCONFIG` then build using `make` as usual.\n\nBuilding the documentation (man page) requires AsciiDoc and a few other dependencies: `asciidoc docbook-xml xsltproc`\n\n\t\t$ make docs\n\nThis will generate the yabar man page inside `doc/yabar.1`.\n\n## Configuration\n\nPlease see [our documentation](doc/yabar.1.asciidoc) for in-depth configuration details. Also check the provided [example configuration](examples/example.config).\n\n## License\n\nYabar is licensed under the MIT license.
