Conky weather+moon scripts (Accuw/WUndergr/NWS/MoonGiant)

Good to know everything's settled unklar

morfik · 2018-04-10 11:14:22

I just updated my conky config. It looks like this:

Here's the config is someone needs it:
https://github.com/morfikov/files/tree/ … fik/.conky

martix · 2018-04-10 14:25:47

^That's kind of full. But I like it. Is that /var/log/messages? How do you do the output in conky?

I was thinking having that and maybe journalctl -xf as a background. Could there be anything else useful? Maybe .xsession-errors? I really dislike those silly 'bg_color' is not a valid color name messges, they're everywhere...

morfik · 2018-04-10 14:42:04

Logs aren't manged by conky. I have 5 different windows there: 4x conky (top, left, center and right) and 1x urxvt terminal with tmux on it with 8 tabs.

Logs come from different sources: systemd journal, FIFO devices managed by rsyslog daemon (local and remote) or messages sent via /etc/X11/Xsession script (exec >>"$ERRFILE" 2>&1 which gives me all the X session logs that usually go to .xsession-errors), etc. You basically can see the exact commands here (of course you have to do some filtering in rsyslog and redirect the messages to the FIFO devices).

martix · 2018-04-10 21:27:06

^I see, thank you for the explanation.

I'm not sure, but I recall that I saw somewhere log messages shown in conky. I might be wrong though, maybe it was something else.

TeoBigusGeekus · 2018-04-10 23:00:54

@morfik
Thanks for sharing your conky

@martix
I'm pretty sure you could print any log file with something like

${execpi 3600 less /path/to/file/filename.log|head -10}

Since the openweathermap doesn't work reliably even with its own key, I converted the whole thing to Teo's reliable scripts today.

Ok, thanks for posting it unklar.

Hello, Teo,

I just found a small bug in the 1_rss - archive.

In your .conkyrc_1_RSS you call the script with capital letters. The script itself is called 1_rss

Thank you for the hint. I tried as an example

${execpi 3600 less /var/log/messages|head -10}

but there was no output for me (might be a permission issue as I start conky from userspace).

Meanwhile I found on gentoo wiki

${exec grep 'sudo' /var/log/messages | tail -n 4}

but for some reason it did not work either.

No, it's been 1_RSS since the latest update.

Are you sure there is a file called messages in your /var/log/ folder?
Cause in my system there isn't one.

There is one for me, I've got a longer output after

sudo cat /var/log/messages

TeoBigusGeekus · 2018-04-20 21:47:15

When I try to read a text log file, everything's OK:

${execpi 3600 less /var/log/cups/error_log|head -10}

Maybe your messages file is a binary one?
Can you open it with a text editor (gedit, geany, etc.)?

martix · 2018-04-21 08:34:28

^Yes, I can open it with a text editor (as root). That must be a permission issue with conky. Otherwise that command works e.g. with:

${execpi 3600 less $HOME/.xsession-errors|head -10}

Teo,
I found the error.

With kernel 4.16 the support of the file system vfat was discontinued.
This leads to illogical phenomena in German (upper and lower case; umlauts; special characters) when using such a partition.
Here it was written in small letters during unpacking.

If the fstab option

iocharset=utf8

is inserted, everything is OK again.

I'm sorry I made the wrong assumption.

TeoBigusGeekus · 2018-04-21 22:37:30

@martix
Interesting. On my system, everything's owned by root, but I can read all files, either in a terminal or with a text editor (can't make any changes and save though).

@unklar
Ah, right, I see. Good to know.

	rm $HOME/1_accuweather/{altogether16,altogether16_2015,altogether16_2016}

This line in the script tries to delete all altogether files, whether they exist or not.
Just ignore the terminal warnings.
