## [Unreleased]
Release 3.6.1
2022-03-05 13:21:35 +00:00
## [3.6.1] - 2022-03-05
Fix a Clang 13 warning `-Wdeprecated-copy` found this copy-assignment operator, which it complains about. Since it is just `= default`, we should be able to remove both it and the default constructor, making the struct just its data members.
2022-03-02 00:05:05 +00:00
### Build
build: Add missing includes Fixes #2614 Ref: https://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-12/porting_to.html
2022-03-02 13:58:47 +00:00
- Fixed compiler warning in Clang 13 ([`#2613`](https://github.com/polybar/polybar/pull/2613))
- Fixed compiler error in GCC 12 ([`#2616`](https://github.com/polybar/polybar/pull/2616), [`#2614`](https://github.com/polybar/polybar/issues/2614))
fix(build): Do not replace CMAKE_EXE_LINKER_FLAGS CMAKE_EXE_LINKER_FLAGS contains, among other things, the LDFLAGS which many distros use to universally apply linker flags. When completely replacing CMAKE_EXE_LINKER_FLAGS, these flags are lost.
2022-03-03 14:18:27 +00:00
- Fixed installation of docs when some are not generated (man, html...) ([`#2612`](https://github.com/polybar/polybar/pull/2612))
- Fix `LDFLAGS` not being respected ([`#2619`](https://github.com/polybar/polybar/pull/2619))
Release 3.6.0
2022-02-26 20:22:17 +00:00
fix: Allow negative values for tray and bar offset
2022-03-03 21:19:37 +00:00
### Fixed
- `tray-offset-x`, `tray-offset-y`, `offset-x`, and `offset-y` were mistakenly capped below at 0 ([`#2620`](https://github.com/polybar/polybar/pull/2620))
fix(script): Prevent stalling during shutdown If a script module is waiting on a non-tailed script to finish, polybar cannot shut down until the script has terminted. To remedy this, we use the same polling loop as for tailed scripts which checks if it needs to terminate after every iteration.
2022-03-03 22:38:51 +00:00
- `custom/script`: Polybar shutdown being stalled by hanging script ([`#2621`](https://github.com/polybar/polybar/pull/2621))
Fix hint message when using deprecated polybar-msg hook
2022-03-05 06:16:57 +00:00
- `polybar-msg`: Wrong hint when using deprecated `hook` ([`#2624`](https://github.com/polybar/polybar/pull/2624))
fix: Allow negative values for tray and bar offset
2022-03-03 21:19:37 +00:00
Release 3.6.0
2022-02-26 20:22:17 +00:00
## [3.6.0] - 2022-03-01
New Tag Parser (#2303) * refactor(color): Use enum class for color type * Add testcases for tag parser * Make tag parser a pull-style parser Being able to parse single elements at a time gives us more fine-grained error messages, we can also parse as much as possible and only stop after an exception. * fix(color): Parser did not check for invalid chars * tag parser: First full implementation * tag parser: Fix remaining failing tests * tag parser: Replace old parser * tag parser: Treat alignment as formatting tag Makes the structure less complex and the alignment tags really are formatting tags, they are structurally no different from the %{R} tag. * tag parser: Cleanup type definitions All type definitions for tags now live in tags/types.hpp, the parser.hpp only contains the definitions necessary for actually calling the parser, this shouldn't be included in many places (only places that actually do parsing). But many places need the definitions for the tags themselves. * Rename components/parser to tags/dispatch * tag parser: Cleanup * Add changelog
2020-12-17 19:37:28 +00:00
### Breaking
Release 3.6.0
2022-02-26 20:22:17 +00:00
- We added the backslash escape character (\\) for configuration values. This means that the literal backslash character now has special meaning in configuration files, therefore if you want to use it in a value as a literal backslash, you need to escape it with the backslash escape character. The parser logs an error if any unescaped backslashes are found in a value. This affects you only if you are using two consecutive backslashes in a config value, which will now be interpreted as a single literal backslash. ([`#2354`](https://github.com/polybar/polybar/issues/2354))
- We rewrote our formatting tag parser. This shouldn't break anything, if you experience any problems, please let us know. The new parser now gives errors for certain invalid tags where the old parser would just silently ignore them. Adding extra text to the end of a valid tag now produces an error. For example, tags like `%{T-a}`, `%{T2abc}`, `%{rfoo}`, and others will now start producing errors. This does not affect you unless you are producing your own invalid formatting tags (for example in a script).
- For security reasons, the named pipe at `/tmp/polybar_mqueue.<PID>` had its permission bits changed from `666` to `600` to prevent sending ipc messages to polybar processes running under a different user.

build: Bump cmake version to 3.5.0 This includes the changes from polybar/xpp#30 which also updates the minimum cmake version in the xpp submodule
2020-12-22 00:58:21 +00:00
### Build
Release 3.6.0
2022-02-26 20:22:17 +00:00
- New dependency: [libuv](https://github.com/libuv/libuv). At least version 1.3 is required.

2020-12-22 00:58:21 +00:00
- Bump the minimum cmake version to 3.5
refactor(cmake): Allow targets to be enabled individually Each major target of polybar can now be enabled/disabled while configuring (even polybar itself). The cmake code specific to each target will only run if the target is enabled. This allows us to for example just build the documentation without having to run all the cmake code related to compilation or having the polybar dependencies installed (other than sphinx).
2020-12-22 02:43:06 +00:00
- The `BUILD_IPC_MSG` option has been renamed to `BUILD_POLYBAR_MSG`
Release 3.6.0
2022-02-26 20:22:17 +00:00
- Building the documentation is now enabled by default and not just when `sphinx-build` is found.
- Users can control exactly which targets should be available with the following cmake options (together with their default value):

2021-10-05 11:07:19 +00:00
- The sample config file has been removed.
Release 3.6.0
2022-02-26 20:22:17 +00:00
- Polybar now ships a default config that is installed to `/etc/polybar/config.ini`, it lives in `doc/config.ini`. It will also be placed in the `examples` directory in the documentation folder. ([`#2405`](https://github.com/polybar/polybar/issues/2405))
- The `userconfig` target has been removed, you can no longer use `make userconfig`. As an alternative, you can copy the default config from `/etc/polybar/config.ini`.
- The `DEBUG_SHADED` cmake variable and its associated functionality has been removed.
build: Bump cmake version to 3.5.0 This includes the changes from polybar/xpp#30 which also updates the minimum cmake version in the xpp submodule

Deprecate throttle-output and throttle-output-for The eventloop no longer uses them. libuv will coalesces multiple uv_async_send if they happen one after another and this also leads to coalescing of updates.
2021-09-12 20:48:27 +00:00
### Deprecated
Release 3.6.0
2022-02-26 20:22:17 +00:00
- `[settings]`: `throttle-output` and `throttle-output-for` have been removed. The new event loop already does a similar thing where it coalesces update triggers if they happen directly after one another, leading to only a single bar update.
- When not specifying the config file with `--config`, naming your config file `config` is deprecated. Rename your config file to `config.ini`.
- Directly writing ipc messages to `/tmp/polybar_mqueue.<PID>` is deprecated, users should always use `polybar-msg`. As a consequence the message format used for IPC is deprecated as well.
- `polybar-msg hook` is deprecated in favor of using the hook action. `polybar-msg` will tell you the correct command to use.
Deprecate throttle-output and throttle-output-for The eventloop no longer uses them. libuv will coalesces multiple uv_async_send if they happen one after another and this also leads to coalescing of updates.

- Polybar additionally searches in `XDG_CONFIG_DIRS/polybar/config.ini` (or `/etc/xdg/polybar/config.ini` if it is not set) and `/etc/polybar/config.ini` for config files. ([`#2016`](https://github.com/polybar/polybar/issues/2016), [`#2511`](https://github.com/polybar/polybar/pull/2511))
- We rewrote polybar's main event loop. This shouldn't change any behavior for the user, but be on the lookout for X events, click events, or ipc messages not arriving and the bar not shutting down/restarting properly and let us know if you find any issues. ([`#2384`](https://github.com/polybar/polybar/pull/2384))
- Slight changes to the value ranges the different ramp levels are responsible for in the cpu, memory, fs, and battery modules. The first level is used for everything at and below the start of the value range and the last level for everything at and above the end of the value range. The other levels are evenly distributed over the value range as before. The value range is bounded by the new warning thresholds. ([`#2199`](https://github.com/polybar/polybar/pull/2199))
- `custom/script`: `interval` now defaults to 0 if `tail = true` as per the documentation. ([`#2240`](https://github.com/polybar/polybar/pull/2240))
- `internal/network`: Increased precision for upload and download speeds: 0 decimal places for KB/s (as before), 1 for MB/s and 2 for GB/s. ([`#2054`](https://github.com/polybar/polybar/pull/2054))
- Clicks arriving in close succession, no longer get dropped. Before polybar would drop any click that arrived within 5ms of the previous one. ([`#2510`](https://github.com/polybar/polybar/pull/2510))
- Increased the double click interval from 150ms to 400ms. ([`#2510`](https://github.com/polybar/polybar/pull/2510))
- Stop ignoring actions if they arrive while the previous one hasn't been processed yet. ([`#2469`](https://github.com/polybar/polybar/issues/2469), [`#2517`](https://github.com/polybar/polybar/pull/2517))
- Polybar can now be run without passing the bar name as argument given that the configuration file only defines one bar ([`#2525`](https://github.com/polybar/polybar/issues/2525), [`#2526`](https://github.com/polybar/polybar/pull/2526))
- `include-directory` and `include-file` now support relative paths. The paths are relative to the folder of the file where those directives appear. ([`#2523`](https://github.com/polybar/polybar/issues/2523), [`#2535`](https://github.com/polybar/polybar/issues/2535))
- `custom/ipc`: Empty output strings are no longer formatted. This prevents extraneous spaces and separators from appearing in the bar when the output of an ipc module is empty. ([`#2549`](https://github.com/polybar/polybar/pull/2549))

New Tag Parser (#2303) * refactor(color): Use enum class for color type * Add testcases for tag parser * Make tag parser a pull-style parser Being able to parse single elements at a time gives us more fine-grained error messages, we can also parse as much as possible and only stop after an exception. * fix(color): Parser did not check for invalid chars * tag parser: First full implementation * tag parser: Fix remaining failing tests * tag parser: Replace old parser * tag parser: Treat alignment as formatting tag Makes the structure less complex and the alignment tags really are formatting tags, they are structurally no different from the %{R} tag. * tag parser: Cleanup type definitions All type definitions for tags now live in tags/types.hpp, the parser.hpp only contains the definitions necessary for actually calling the parser, this shouldn't be included in many places (only places that actually do parsing). But many places need the definitions for the tags themselves. * Rename components/parser to tags/dispatch * tag parser: Cleanup * Add changelog

### Fixed
Release 3.6.0
2022-02-26 20:22:17 +00:00
- Broken positioning in Openbox when the bar is hidden and shown again ([`#2021`](https://github.com/polybar/polybar/issues/2021), [`#2600`](https://github.com/polybar/polybar/pull/2600))
- Handling of action blocks that contain negative offsets ([`#1814`](https://github.com/polybar/polybar/issues/1814), [`#2601`](https://github.com/polybar/polybar/pull/2601))
- `polybar -m` used to show both physical outputs and RandR monitors, even if the outputs were covered by monitors. ([`#2481`](https://github.com/polybar/polybar/issues/2481), [`#2485`](https://github.com/polybar/polybar/pull/2485))
- Parser error if click command contained `}` ([`#2040`](https://github.com/polybar/polybar/issues/2040), [`#2303`](https://github.com/polybar/polybar/pull/2303))
- Some modules stop updating when system time moves backwards. ([`#857`](https://github.com/polybar/polybar/issues/857), [`#1932`](https://github.com/polybar/polybar/issues/1932), [`#2559`](https://github.com/polybar/polybar/pull/2559))
- `custom/script`: Concurrency issues with fast-updating tailed scripts. ([`#1978`](https://github.com/polybar/polybar/issues/1978), [`#2518`](https://github.com/polybar/polybar/pull/2518))
- `internal/alsa`: Slight imprecision when calculating percentages. This caused the volume reported to be off by one. ([`#2399`](https://github.com/polybar/polybar/issues/2399), [`#2401`](https://github.com/polybar/polybar/pull/2401))
- `internal/backlight`: With amdgpu backlights, the brightness indicator was slightly behind. ([`#2367`](https://github.com/polybar/polybar/issues/2367), [`#2380`](https://github.com/polybar/polybar/pull/2380))
- `internal/bspwm`: Warning message regarding T@ ([`#2371`](https://github.com/polybar/polybar/issues/2371), [`#2439`](https://github.com/polybar/polybar/pull/2439))
- `internal/xkeyboard`: Trailing space after the layout label when indicators are empty and made sure right amount of spacing is added between the indicator labels ([`#2292`](https://github.com/polybar/polybar/issues/2292), [`#2306`](https://github.com/polybar/polybar/pull/2306))
The xworkspaces module should wait for EWMH to become available (#2429) * The xworkspaces module should wait for EWMH to become available Before this change if EWMH wasn't available the xworkspaces module was permanently disabled. When polybar was started alongside the window manager e.g. from .xinitrc this caused a race condition between polybar and the window manager and the xworkspaces module may or may not be displayed. After this change polybar will wait for EWMH to become available. This change closes #1915, see that issue for more details. Curiously this only required the removal of the error condition which used the be raised when EWMH wasn't available. The xworkspaces module will show up on the bar as soon as the first EWMH event is processed by the existing event handling code. I can't argue much about the correctness of this patch but it seems to work flawlessly in my testing with xmonad. I didn't test any other window managers. Note that removing the error condition below which checks that _NET_DESKTOP_VIEWPORT is available might make this work with pin-workspaces=true. I couldn't test the effects of that change because I only tested with xmonad and xmonad doesn't support _NET_DESKTOP_VIEWPORT, so I didn't make that change. * xworkspaces: Remove check fo _NET_DESKTOP_VIEWPORT Implementations that don't support it will just return an empty list for get_desktop_viewports and pin-workspaces won't do anything. * Update changelog Fixes #1915 Co-authored-by: Tim Schumacher <tim@timakro.de> Co-authored-by: patrick96 <p.ziegler96@gmail.com>

Release 3.6.0
2022-02-26 20:22:17 +00:00
- Broken scroll-wrapping and order of workspaces when scrolling ([`#2491`](https://github.com/polybar/polybar/issues/2491), [`#2492`](https://github.com/polybar/polybar/pull/2492))
- Module would error if WM was not full started up. ([`#1915`](https://github.com/polybar/polybar/issues/1915), [`#2429`](https://github.com/polybar/polybar/pull/2429))
- Make the urgent hint persistent ([`#1081`](https://github.com/polybar/polybar/issues/1081), [`#2340`](https://github.com/polybar/polybar/pull/2340))
- Crash when the WM sets -1 for `_NET_WM_DESKTOP` ([`#2352`](https://github.com/polybar/polybar/issues/2352), [`#2353`](https://github.com/polybar/polybar/issues/2353))
- `internal/network`: The module now properly supports 'altnames' for interfaces. ([`#2540`](https://github.com/polybar/polybar/pull/2540))
- `internal/battery`: More accurate battery state ([`#2563`](https://github.com/polybar/polybar/issues/2563), [`#2556`](https://github.com/polybar/polybar/pull/2556))
- Offset tag does not respect current background color ([`#2578`](https://github.com/polybar/polybar/pull/2578), [`#1700`](https://github.com/polybar/polybar/issues/1700))
- Crash when negative margin or padding was specified ([`#2578`](https://github.com/polybar/polybar/pull/2578), [`#1265`](https://github.com/polybar/polybar/issues/1265))
fix(xworkspaces): Fix scrolling (#2492) The scroll handler had two issues: * It did not respect the order the desktops where displayed in * It would not wrap around on the first desktop because of an integer underflow Fixes #2491

## [3.5.7] - 2021-09-21
tray: Properly handle missing _XEMBED_INFO The icon not supporting XEMBED is not fatal, we just treat is as always mapped. Fixes #2479 Fixes #2442
2021-09-08 16:13:21 +00:00
### Fixed
- The tray mistakenly removed tray icons that did not support XEMBED

Release 3.5.6
2021-05-23 23:00:50 +00:00
## [3.5.6] - 2021-05-24
fix(build): Disable sphinx manpage section dirs Before sphinx 4.0, this was the default but was changed in 4.0. Now by default the folder structure looks like this: man ├── 1 │   └── polybar.1 └── 5 └── polybar.5 This restores the old behavior where there weren't individual folders for the different sections. Fixes #2424 Ref: https://www.sphinx-doc.org/en/master/changes.html#id14
2021-05-09 19:19:15 +00:00
### Build
- Support building documentation on sphinx 4.0 ([`#2424`](https://github.com/polybar/polybar/issues/2424))
fix(tray): Support clients with different depths XCB_BACK_PIXMAP_PARENT_RELATIVE requires that the client has the same depth as the tray window. There was an issue with dropbox having a depth of 32 and the tray window having a depth of 24 that caused the configuration of the icon to fail. It would then be displayed outside of the bar because the catch block was not hit (different exception). We now just don't configure XCB_CW_BACK_PIXMAP. This seems to work and is also what stalonetray does. This does not fix the issue with dropbox having an arbitrary background. Fixes #1679 Fixes #2430
2021-05-18 09:02:10 +00:00
### Fixed
- Tray icons sometimes appears outside of bar ([`#2430`](https://github.com/polybar/polybar/issues/2430), [`#1679`](https://github.com/polybar/polybar/issues/1679))
Fix i3 module assertion failure This brings #2417 into the hotfix release Ref #2417

## [3.5.4] - 2021-01-07
Remove tag compaction "optimizations" The intention was to remove tags that won't have an effect and join together consecutive tags. However the patterns used can just as well appear in regular text, so this can replace characters inside user defined text and not just formatting tags. Fixes #2331
2020-12-24 22:52:35 +00:00
### Fixed
- Wrong text displayed if module text ends with `}` ([`#2331`](https://github.com/polybar/polybar/issues/2331))
