some conky help please

Sector11 · 2016-03-21 23:01:28

OK, I found a lua script that has clock hands and RINGS, lot's of rings.
I'm going to modify it to look line the "brush_rings.lua" discussed here.

chicknfangz, you better be willing to help here ... What partitions do you have on your computer that can be used to replace /media/DATA01 and DATA02?

This is what the new script looks like now (says it's a LinuxMint mod ... but found it in the orange forum):

chicknfangz · 2016-03-21 23:25:38

OK thank you very much sector11 indeed i will help. If it ends up not being able to work then thats OK i will go with another conky guys. I will post my gparted partitions here for you Thank you for taking the time out to help me. Very much appreciate it

chicknfangz · 2016-03-21 23:37:58

here is the gparted layout

and this is the fdisk layout.

If you need to know more let me know

Sector11 · 2016-03-22 00:54:55

Yea, I figured as much. You won't be able to use the DATA01 and DATA02 rings as shown, they need to be mount points of partitions and you only have two partitions and /dev/sda5 (PointLinux) doesn't look like it's mounted with LinuxLite.

Two more questions,
1. How you connect to the internet? With eth0, wlan0 or something else (to get the up/down speeds)
2. How many CPU's do you have? The script only uses the average (CPU0) if you have a dual core we can use the DATA01/02 rings for CPU1 and CPU2

chicknfangz · 2016-03-22 01:40:37

Linux lite is what I'm on now. SO could i mnt point Linux to the one bar. I can install bunsenlabs also then can i mnt it to the other bar. I could mount them would that work or Does it work like that or entirely different way

I connect to the Internet through Ethernet yes. But its not eth0 on Linux lite its p1p1

my cpu is i7 2600k 4 cores

Sector11 · 2016-03-22 01:56:39

OK, plp1 it is ... I use eth0 ...so when I tweak this, I'll use that with a comment line to change it to plp1 when you get it, like this:

    {
            name='upspeedf',
            arg='eth0',   -- change to plp1
            max=100,
            bg_colour=0xffffff,
            bg_alpha=0.2,
            fg_colour=0xffff33,
            fg_alpha=0.3,
            x=400, y=440,
            radius=200,
            thickness=20,
            start_angle=140,
            end_angle=220
    },
    {
            name='downspeedf',
            arg='eth0',   -- change to plp1
            max=100,
            bg_colour=0xffffff,
            bg_alpha=0.2,
            fg_colour=0xccff33,
            fg_alpha=0.3,
            x=400, y=470,
            radius=210,
            thickness=20,
            start_angle=140,
            end_angle=220
    },

Option for you:

Script already has cpu0 - the average of your four cores - I can split DATA01 into two arcs and ise the top for cpu1 and the bottom for cpu2, and the same for DATA02 - top for cpu3 and bottom for cpu4. That way there is no need to install/mount other 'distros' (not really a good idea, IMHO) just to get a LUA script working. You already have what you need to get this working Just need to modify it to fit your system - not modify your system to fit the LUA script.

EDIT:

Linux lite is what I'm on now. SO could i mnt point Linux to the one bar. I can install bunsenlabs also then can i mnt it to the other bar. I could mount them would that work or Does it work like that or entirely different way

Yes, you 'could' do that and mount them and use the mountpoint in the LUA script, but like I said, IMHO, mounting other distros just to get a bar in a lua script is not a good idea.
my /media/5 and media/10 partitions are "personal" data partitions, not distros.
/dev/sda1 & 2 are #! Waldorf and /dev/sda6 and 7 are another BL install - not mounted by my daily use BL on /dev/sda8 and 9.

g'night - off to bed.

chicknfangz · 2016-03-22 02:29:05

Ok Thank you your recommendation seems most easiest way i agree with that i like it

also sorry did i put an L in plp1 i meant its p1p1 not L. doesn't really matter tho i get what your doing anyway

How did you get your data drive marked DATA01. Is this a special drive i need or any external HDD drive work

Thank you

That is what the original poster of the original script had on his personal system. You are getting hung up on someone's individual partition names. Ignore whatever they used and use what you use.

Sector11 · 2016-03-22 11:53:28

@chicknfangz - Like damo said you are getting hung up on these DATA01 and DATA02 partitions that are created by <username> on their own system when they set up the LUA script. I have no DATA01 or 02 here I changed the script to use what I have here - same as the eth0 to p1p1 idea. (thanks for the plp1 to p1p1 update ... now noted in the code)

Another tweak in progress - changing the two outer ring segments for DATA01 and DATA02 to four ring segments for cpu1, cpu2, cpu3 and cpu4 (cpu4 not done yet)

    },

This whole thing is in a state of "being tweaked" so forget the coloured rings in the centre for now.

Also note I am commenting the code with the old settings and also the new stuff so when you het it you can see what you will need to tweak for your system.

This is also a learning experience for me as LUA and I mix like oil and water. I badgered poor mrpeachy with a million LUA questions before 'some' things finally stuck. His patience with me; I'm paying back now.

... and real life kick is - off to the veggie store - back later.

Sector11 · 2016-03-22 16:20:19

OK, it's done ... kind of. I would like to give the guy that wrote the actual conky a lobotomy! The placing of the text with the ${voffset ...} commands is a nightmare.

The LUA script I found and tweaked for this sill has the original code commented and the new code added to make it look like the conky you want.

If I did this right, it should be plug and play IF you change the path to the LUA script to reflect where you put it, because this will not work for you:

# — Lua Load — #
lua_load /media/5/conky/chicknfangz/chicknfangz-rings.lua
lua_draw_hook_pre clock_rings

OH one more that will not work: Temperature:

${platform f71882fg.2560 temp 1}°C

check out: Using Sensors

The new LUA script, I called it: chicknfangz-rings.lua

--[[
Clock Rings by Linux Mint (2011) reEdited by despot77

This script draws percentage meters as rings, and also draws clock hands if
you want! It is fully customisable; all options are described in the script.
This script is based off a combination of my clock.lua script and my rings.lua
script.

IMPORTANT: if you are using the 'cpu' function, it will cause a segmentation
fault if it tries to draw a ring straight away.

Search for: -- check chicknfangz update
-- it is no longer line 154

The if statement on line 145 uses a delay to make sure that this doesn't
happen. It calculates the length of the delay by the number of updates since
Conky started. Generally, a value of 5s is long enough, so if you update Conky
every 1s, use update_num>5 in that if statement (the default). If you only
update Conky every 2s, you should change it to update_num>3; conversely if you
update Conky every 0.5s, you should use update_num>10. ALSO, if you change
your Conky, is it best to use "killall conky; conky" to update it, otherwise
the update_num will not be reset and you will get an error.


To call this script in Conky, use the following (assuming that you save this
script to ~/scripts/rings.lua):
    lua_load ~/scripts/clock_rings.lua
    lua_draw_hook_pre clock_rings

The quality of your post warrants some cross-linking in the main conky thread, doesn't it

There isn't a main conky thread.

This is right where it is suppose to be: Help & Support (Other)

nore · 2016-03-23 04:25:17

Yes it is, but as nobody suggested, the final piece with all its effort deserves to be presented in the main gallery.

Sector11 · 2016-03-23 12:20:40

We are going to have to agree to disagree here.

What's here is a mess that I wouldn't post anywhere - as my work. It was done at a request for help, I got it working but didn't clean up the code at all. The conky config sucks, but it works - there is still tweaking needed to get the spacing as that is way off balance. That's chicknfangz responsibility though.

damo · 2016-03-23 13:50:36

And the arcs aren't concentric!

I agree, it's your decision, but anyway, it has value as learning process, if not as a finished, polished product. There's a lesson to be learned: sometimes it is easier to write your own instead of tuning recycled material.

It's by design!
