# My touchbar. My rules. [](https://github.com/Toxblh/MTMR/releases) [](https://github.com/Toxblh/MTMR/blob/master/LICENSE)  
_The TouchBar Customization App for your MacBook Pro_
My idea is to create a platform for creating plugins to customize the TouchBar. I very much like BTT and having a full custom TouchBar (my BTT preset), and I wanted to create it. It's my first Swift project for MacOS :)
**Share your presets [here](https://github.com/Toxblh/MTMR-presets)**
## Installation
- Download latest [release](https://github.com/Toxblh/MTMR/releases) (.dmg) from github
- Or via Homebrew `brew install --cask mtmr`
- [Dario Prski](https://medium.com/@urdigitalpulse) has written a [fantastic article on medium](https://medium.com/@urdigitalpulse/customise-your-macbook-pro-touch-bar-966998e606b5) that goes into more detail on installing MTMR
**On first install** you need to allow access for MTMR in Accessibility otherwise buttons like Esc, Volume, Brightness and other system keys won't work.
🍏→ System Preferences → Security and Privacy → tab Privacy → Accessibility → MTMR
## Examples
[MTMR presets](https://github.com/Toxblh/MTMR-presets)
## Customization
MTMR preferences are stored in `~/Library/Application\ Support/MTMR/items.json`.
The pre-installed configuration contains less or more than you'll probably want, try to configure:
## Built-in button types:
> Buttons
- escape
- exitTouchbar
- brightnessUp
- brightnessDown
- illuminationUp (keyboard illumination)
- illuminationDown (keyboard illumination)
- volumeDown
- volumeUp
- mute
> Native Plugins
- timeButton
- battery
- cpu
- currency
- weather
- yandexWeather
- inputsource
- music (tap for pause, longTap for next)
- dock (half-long click to open app, full-long click to kill app)
- nightShift
- dnd (Don't disturb)
- darkMode
- pomodoro
- network
- upnext (Calendar events)
> Media Keys
- previous
- play
- next
> AppleScript plugins
- sleep
- displaySleep
> Custom buttons
- staticButton
- appleScriptTitledButton
- shellScriptTitledButton
## Gestures
By default you can enable basic gestures from application menu (status bar -> MTMR icon -> Volume/Brightness gestures):
- two finger slide: change you Volume
- three finger slide: change you Brightness
### Custom gestures
You can add custom actions for two/three/four finger swipes. To do it, you need to use `swipe` type:
```json
"type": "swipe",
"fingers": 2, // number of fingers required (2,3 or 4)
"direction": "right", // direction of swipe (right/left)
"minOffset": 10, // optional: minimal required offset for gesture to emit event
"sourceApple": { // optional: apple script to run
"inline": "beep"
},
"sourceBash": { // optional: bash script to run
"inline": "touch /Users/lobster/test"
}
```
You may create as many `swipe` objects in the preset as you want.
## Built-in slider types:
- brightness
- volume
### You can also make custom buttons using these types
#### `staticButton`
```json
"type": "staticButton",
"title": "esc",
```
#### `appleScriptTitledButton`
```js
{
"type": "appleScriptTitledButton",
"refreshInterval": 60, //optional
"source": {
"filePath": "~/Library/Application Support/MTMR/iTunes.nowPlaying.scpt",
// or
"inline": "tell application \"Finder\"\rif not (exists window 1) then\rmake new Finder window\rset target of front window to path to home folder as string\rend if\ractivate\rend tell",
// or
"base64": "StringInbase64"
},
}
```
> Note: You can change appleScriptTitledButton's icon by following these steps:
1. Declare dictionary of icons in `alternativeImages` field
2. Make you script return array of two values - `{"TITLE", "IMAGE_LABEL"}`
3. Make sure that your `IMAGE_LABEL` is declared in `alternativeImages` field
Example:
```js
{
"type": "appleScriptTitledButton",
"source": {
"inline": "if (random number from 1 to 2) = 1 then\n\tset val to {\"title\", \"play\"}\nelse\n\tset val to {\"title\", \"pause\"}\nend if\nreturn val"
},
"refreshInterval": 1,
"image": {
"base64": "iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgA..."
},
"alternativeImages": {
"play": {
"base64": "iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAAAA..."
},
"pause": {
"base64": "iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAIAA..."
}
}
},
```
#### `shellScriptTitledButton`
> Note: script may also use escape sequences to return colors (read https://misc.flogisoft.com/bash/tip_colors_and_formatting for more information)
> "16 Colors" is the only mode supported presently. Buttons will set their own background color to the color returned.
Example of "CPU load" button which also changes color based on load value (Note: The native `cpu` plugin runs runs better):
```js
{
"type": "shellScriptTitledButton",
"width": 80,
"refreshInterval": 2,
"source": {
"inline": "top -l 2 -n 0 -F | egrep -o ' \\d*\\.\\d+% idle' | tail -1 | awk -F% '{p = 100 - $1; if (p > 30) c = \"\\033[33m\"; if (p > 70) c = \"\\033[30;43m\"; printf \"%s%4.1f%%\\n\", c, p}'"
},
"actions": [
{
"trigger": "singleTap",
"action": "appleScript",
"actionAppleScript": {
"inline": "activate application \"Activity Monitor\"\rtell application \"System Events\"\r\ttell process \"Activity Monitor\"\r\t\ttell radio button \"CPU\" of radio group 1 of group 2 of toolbar 1 of window 1 to perform action \"AXPress\"\r\tend tell\rend tell"
}
}
],
"align": "right",
"image": {
// Or you can specify a filePath here.
// Images will be resized to 24x24.
// "filePath": "~/myproject/myimage.jpg" // or "/fixed/path/to/the.png"
"base64":

## Troubleshooting
#### If you can't open preferences:

2. Put `open -a TextEdit ~/Library/Application\ Support/MTMR/items.json` command and press Enter
#### Buttons or gestures doesn't work:
- "After the last update my mtmr is not working anymore!"
- "Buttons sometimes do not trigger action"
- "ESC don't work"
- "Gestures don't work"
Re-tick or check a tick for access 🍏→ System Preferences → Security and Privacy → tab Privacy → Accessibility → MTMR
