Work with SwiftBar - Githubissues

MikaelSmith commented 3 years ago

BitBar is largely unmaintained (last release in 2016). https://github.com/swiftbar/SwiftBar is a spiritual successor that's largely compatible with BitBar scripts.

Issues I've encountered

vmpooler-bitbar config errors if you try to refresh plugin

? Refresh plugin (window will lose focus)? Yes
Refreshing plugin...
2021/01/14 11:23:17 Command exited unexpectedly with error: exit status 1

When I try to run vmpooler-bitbar, which is what I assume BitBar/SwiftBar do, I get

$ vmpooler-bitbar
panic: runtime error: slice bounds out of range

Ok, this was caused by setting the endpoint to https://abs-prod.k8s.infracore.puppet.net/api/v2.

Usage appears to happen because SwiftBar runs

$ export OS_APPEARANCE='Light' OS_VERSION_PATCH='7' OS_VERSION_MAJOR='10' SWIFTBAR='1' SWIFTBAR_VERSION='1.2.1' SWIFTBAR_BUILD='237' SWIFTBAR_PLUGINS_PATH='/Users/michaelsmith/Documents/bitbar' SWIFTBAR_PLUGIN_PATH='/usr/local/Cellar/vmpooler-bitbar/v2.1.1/bin/vmpooler-bitbar' OS_VERSION_MINOR='15';/usr/local/Cellar/vmpooler-bitbar/v2.1.1/bin/vmpooler-bitbar
Usage:
  vmpooler-bitbar [flags]
  vmpooler-bitbar [command]

Available Commands:
  config
  help        Help about any command
  install
  token

Flags:
  -h, --help   help for vmpooler-bitbar

Use "vmpooler-bitbar [command] --help" for more information about a command.

So https://github.com/johnmccabe/vmpooler-bitbar/blob/master/commands/root.go#L23-L25 doesn't work.

One probably unrelated note: https://github.com/matryer/bitbar says compiled Go plugins need to use an extension and suggests .cgo.

johnmccabe commented 3 years ago

@matryer has released xbar which should be compatible out of the box, worth checking out:

Closing as stale
