2020-05-02Update stderr and the bar on receiving exceptionSibi Prabakaran
2020-05-02Avoid busy looping by not catching all exceptionsSibi Prabakaran
This specifically avoids situation described in this issue https://github.com/jaor/xmobar/issues/438 where the handle was throwing the IOException continously in a loop: <stdin>: hGetLine: invalid argument (invalid byte sequence) It happened because my system's environment was right, but the proper behaviour hear would be to let it to throw the exception rather than leading to a busy loop. I did some git blame to find out that this commit introduced the behaviour: https://github.com/jaor/xmobar/commit/fc24dc1874dcf7c9e66e21502a58b40cbe627c85 but there was no reason mentioned in the commit for trying to capture all exceptions.

2020-04-12Add a HandleReader PluginPavan Rikhi
This adds a new `HandleReader` plugin, which displays data from a Haskell `Handle`. This is really only useful if you are running xmobar from within another Haskell program, but lets you avoid the mechanics of creating a named pipe with the proper file permissions. Instead, you can use `System.Process.createPipe` to make a pair of read & write Handles. If you pass the read handle to HandleReader, you can use hPutStr on the write Handle to send data to xmobar from your application code.
2020-04-12Require bytestring >= 0.10.8.2.Zev Weiss
Version 0.10.8.1 contains a bug in the readFile function that misbehaves on things like magic procfs files where stat(2) returns an st_size of zero, which breaks the Net monitor and such; 0.10.8.2 contains the fix.

2020-04-12Fix Tests When Compiling Without ALSAPavan Rikhi
Use CPP macros to make the ALSA Spec file a no-op when the `with_alsa` flag is set to False. Without these macros, HSpec will import the AlsaSpec module causing test compilation to fail.

2020-02-25Wireless: support NL80211 userspace <-> kernelspace APIPaul Fertser
NL80211 was introduced in Linux 2.6.24 in 2007 as a new extensible universal API, replacing "wireless extensions" ioctls. It works on top of netlink, and allows direct communication to cfg80211 kernel subsystem. Since then it became a hard requirement for all upstream wireless drivers to hook into cfg80211 (SoftMAC drivers do it via the common mac80211 layer). There's still additional compatibility code that allows limited Wext functionality for cfg80211 drivers but it's buggy and can be disabled altogether when CONFIG_CFG80211_WEXT is not set. This patch makes use of "netlink" Haskell library which doesn't have any additional runtime dependencies (so neither iwlib nor libnl are required). The operation is the same as performed by "iw dev <devname> link" command. The signal level is transformed to "quality" by first clamping it to [-110; -40], then adding 110 and dividing by 70 (same meaningless formula as used by the cfg80211 Wext compatibility layer). "essid" template argument is replaced by more appropriate "ssid" (with the old variant still available for backwards compatibility)

2020-02-23Timer coalescing: handle exceptions in timer coordination threadTomas Janousek
This corrects my (wrong) assumption that the timer coordination thread will only fail if there's an error in the code, and in that case any attempt to recover is futile. It turns out that the thread does fail recoverably in one notable case: when running in the non-threaded RTS, registerDelay fails immediately. And we probably still wish for xmobar to support the non-threaded RTS. One way to solve this issue is to add a bunch of #ifdefs and compile the code only in the threaded case. This would double the number of configurations that need to be tested, though. Instead, let's make the code robust against all kinds of exceptions in the timer coordination thread, and get non-threaded RTS support for free.
2020-02-22Timer coalescing: gracefully uncoalesce slow timersTomas Janousek
The first implementation assumed all timers (monitors) are fast and frequent (which happens to be the case in my configuration). This meant that a single on-line weather monitor could block the entire xmobar instance for a long time due to the refresh pausing (meant to reduce power consumption). This commit attempts to fix that by limiting the refresh pause time and using the old periodic sleep method for these slow timers (monitors).
2020-02-22Implement timer coalescing (noticeably less CPU/power usage)Tomas Janousek
xmobar currently runs every monitor in its own thread. Monitors that do periodic updates simply sleep and loop. This unfortunately leads to these threads coming out of sync, and xmobar ends up waking up and redrawing for every periodic monitor. In my case, that is 7 times per second, which is enough for xmobar to be at the top of "top" with more than 1% CPU usage, and to have a noticeable impact on battery life. This commit adds a central timer coordination thread which makes sure that periodic updates happen together and that we only redraw once they're all done. Together with PR #409, I managed to lower the idle power draw of my laptop from 4W to 3W.
2020-02-22Refactor code from tenthSeconds to doEveryTenthSecondsTomas Janousek
A preparation for timer coalescing: tenthSeconds is just a sleep whereas doEveryTenthSeconds enables using a central timer and waiting for all monitors to update before refreshing the window. This commit is just a simple refactor, the actual timer coalescing code comes later.

2020-02-11Battery: fix time calculations on some Linux systemsPaul Fertser
The calculations are based on the assumption that current_now (or power_now) are always positive. However, power_supply documentation in the kernel sources say nothing about it, and so some drivers provide a signed value (e.g. bq27xxx_battery_current). Discovered and fixed on ac100/paz00 netbook.
