Waybar integration

Waybar

Add the following module to your waybar configuration:

"custom/pomo": {
    "format": "   {}",
    "exec": "pomodoro-cli status --format json --time-format digital",
    "return-type": "json",
    "on-click": "pomodoro-cli start --add 5m --notify",
    "on-click-middle": "pomodoro-cli pause",
    "on-click-right": "pomodoro-cli stop",
    "interval": 1
},

CSS styling

The module supports three different states: running, paused and finished. You can customize the styling of each state by adding the following CSS rules to your Waybar configuration:

#custom-pomo.running {
  background: #304D30;
}

#custom-pomo.paused {
  background: #AB730A;
}

#custom-pomo.finished {
  background: #8F0808;
}

Update Waybar module immediately

If you want to signal Waybar to update the module immediately when you can add pkill -SIGRTMIN+10 waybar to the on-click commands. For example:

"custom/pomo": {
    "on-click": "pomodoro-cli start --add 5m; pkill -SIGRTMIN+10 waybar",
    "signal": 10,
}

Customization

Set custom alarm sound

If you want to use a custom alarm sound, just add a alarm.mp3 file in the ~/.config/pomodoro-cli directory.

$ mkdir -p ~/.config/pomodoro-cli
$ cp /path/to/alarm.mp3 ~/.config/pomodoro-cli/alarm.mp3

Set custom notification icon

Waybar

If you want to use a custom notification icon, just add a icon.png file in the ~/.config/pomodoro-cli directory.

$ mkdir -p ~/.config/pomodoro-cli
$ cp /path/to/icon.png ~/.config/pomodoro-cli/icon.png
