Governance

Patches that don't break the build (Travis or docs) are generally just merged. This is a "do-it-yourself" project, so to speak.

Releases

No further releases are planned. Install it from Git.

i3pystatus requires Python 3.6 or newer and is not compatible with Python 2. Some modules require additional dependencies documented in the docs.

Detailed installation instructions can be found here.

The official documentation is located at https://i3pystatus.readthedocs.io.

The changelog for old releases can be found here.

A list of all contributors can be found in CONTRIBUTORS, but git likely has more up-to-date information. i3pystatus was initially written by Jan Oliver Oelerich and later ported to Python 3 and mostly rewritten by enkore.

To contribute a module, make sure it uses one of the Module classes. Most modules use IntervalModule, which just calls a function repeatedly in a specified interval.

The output attribute should be set to a dictionary which represents your module's output, the protocol is documented here.

Developer documentation is available in the source code and here.

Patches and pull requests are very welcome :-)
