2020-11-15Fix vertical centering of additional fontsTomas Janousek
The readme says additional fonts are centered vertically if a corresponding offset isn't specified in `textOffsets`, but this didn't happen as we used the first font's metrics for centering of all fonts instead. Fixes: a2365debfaba ("New configuration parameter `textOffsets` (fixes #311)")
2020-11-13Optimize Date plugin again (refresh timezone only once a minute)Tomas Janousek
This makes the Date plugin approximately twice as fast, and makes xmobar up to about 5–10 % faster if Date is the only active plugin. (If more expensive plugins like Network or MultiCpu are used, it doesn't make any measurable difference.) Micro-benchmark results on my HW: Date Benchmarks/Date mean 2.833 μs ( +- 16.08 ns ) Date Benchmarks/DateZonedTime mean 5.020 μs ( +- 32.91 ns ) Date Benchmarks/DateWithTimeZone mean 2.827 μs ( +- 20.52 ns ) (DateZonedTime is the original implementation and DateWithTimeZone is the implementation we had since 0.34 which never refreshes timezone.) Real-life measurements (done overnight on an idle laptop, with all measured xmobars running in parallel to ensure comparable conditions; xmobars configured to only display date and with rate 10 — once per second): $ time timeout 6h xmobar .xmobarrc-DateZonedTime real 360m0,010s user 0m9,867s sys 0m4,644s (9.867 + 4.644) / (360 * 60) = 0.000672 $ time timeout 6h xmobar .xmobarrc-Date real 360m0,008s user 0m9,535s sys 0m4,327s (9.535 + 4.327) / (360 * 60) = 0.000642 $ time timeout 6h xmobar .xmobarrc-Date-10m real 360m0,010s user 0m9,780s sys 0m4,215s (9.780 + 4.215) / (360 * 60) = 0.000648 $ time timeout 6h xmobar .xmobarrc-DateWithTimeZone real 360m0,006s user 0m9,658s sys 0m4,166s (9.658 + 4.166) / (360 * 60) = 0.000640 (.xmobarrc-Date-10m is the proposed implementation, but with timezone refresh every 10 minutes instead of every 1 minute) Interpretation of these results: * refreshing xmobar with just date takes around 650 μs * that is xmobar with just date uses around 0.065 % of CPU time * refreshing timezone takes additional cca 30 μs When we only refresh timezone once a minute, these 30 μs become 0.5 μs amortized, and that should be acceptable to even the most dedicated perfectionist :-) Fixes: a58e32f7c8af ("Revert "Optimize date plugin"") Fixes: 878db3908060 ("Optimize date plugin") Co-authored-by: Sibi Prabakaran <sibi@psibi.in>
2020-11-02Revert "Optimize date plugin"ivanbrennan
This reverts commit 878db39080607ba476ba8d8f547ad28259efb6a9. That commit optimized the date plugin by avoiding calling getTimeZone on each execution, instead calling it just once upon startup and reusing that zone. As a result, the time zone will not be updated dynamically, e.g. when shifting in or out of daylight savings time. I noticed this after my local time zone had shifted from EDT to EST. My xmobar showed 4:30 when the local time was in fact 3:30 (and running date on the command line confirmed that my system clock was actually aware of this shift). I had to restart xmobar in order to pick up the new time zone. I repro'd the unexpected behavior by temporarily disabling my system's time syncing, setting the time to 30 seconds before the zone shift, running date to confirm I'd set the correct time, restarting xmobar, and observing. sudo systemctl stop systemd-timesyncd.service date --set="01:59:30" date I observed my xmobar clock go from 1:59 to 2:00, rather than from 1:59 to 1:00 as expected. Following the same steps, I was able to verify that this commit fixes the issue.

2020-08-07removed default arg of channel', channel (Plugins.Monitors.Volume)Keith
Both functions had a default parameter for use in some error cases. Now each accepts only one parameter (a PerChannel), and return Nothing on an error. The definition of 'channel' confused me, so I simplified it. Hopefully it's now more clear that it just applies 'toInteger' to the 'IO (Maybe CLong)' that 'channel'' returns.

Implemented only for XFT fonts. Adds a new "part" in the fc tag. > Example: <fc=white,gray:0>foo bar</fc> will make the font background as tall as the bar (absolute offset, here set to 0 for both top & bottom) Changes ColorString to ColorInfo, containing both top and bottom offsets. The "colors string" is still in only one string.

2020-06-12Optimize weather plugin by reusing manager and other refactorsSibi Prabakaran
As documented in the http-client library, calling newManager is an expensive operation: ``` Creating a new Manager is a relatively expensive operation, you are advised to share a single Manager between requests instead. ``` But inspite of the haddocks in xmobar claiming that once 'Manager' is created, it will be used throughout the monitor is not true. Because for every call of `startWeather` a new manager is being created. Also I removed the option in WeatherOpts because even if it is false, it will be ultimately created in `getData` function. Also without using a manager - the plugin won't really work. So, I don't think there is any reason for this option to exist. I have introduced a new dependency http-client-tls to use the shared global manager so that we reuse the same manager every time. This simplifies a lot of code. Note that this is not really a new dependency because http-conduit already depends on it transitively.
2020-06-05Optimize date pluginSibi Prabakaran
We avoid calling getTimeZone for each of the time the date has to be updated. Instead, it's computed once at the start and re-used for each invocation. Looking at the implementation of 'getTimeZone', we can see that it's very expensive: https://www.stackage.org/haddock/lts-15.15/time-1.9.3/src/Data-Time-LocalTime-Internal-TimeZone.html#getTimeZone It calls a C FFI each time to get the time zone (getTimeZoneCTime). This is something which we can avoid and the MR implements that. I have been using my xmobar with this patch and the result has been quite good. My xmobar CPU usage has used to hit 3~7% intermittently. With this MR, It hits only 0.7% intermittently which is nice. :-)
