Installation

  1. Clone this repo under ~/.config/awesome/:

    git clone https://github.com/streetturtle/awesome-wm-widgets.git ~/.config/awesome/
    
  2. Require weather widget at the beginning of rc.lua:

    local run_shell = require("awesome-wm-widgets.run_shell.run_shell")
    
  3. Use it (don't forget to comment out the default prompt):

    awful.key({modkey}, "r", function () run_shell.launch() end),
    

⚠️ I am not 100% sure but it may (memory) leak. If awesome uses lots of RAM just reload config (Ctrl + Mod4 + r).
