Lemonbuddy
==========
A fast and easy-to-use wrapper for [Lemonbar](https://github.com/LemonBoy/bar/),
helping you to style and organize your favorite status bar.
A fast and easy-to-use tool for [Lemonbar](https://github.com/LemonBoy/bar/).
### Todo
**Lemonbuddy** aims to help users' build beautiful and highly customizable status bars
without messing with named pipes, MacGyver-like scripting or non-blocking
loops lobotomizing your CPU.
- Write this README
- Create build script to make it easier to build the project for people who
aren't familiar with cmake
Please note that the project hasn't been tested, other then by myself, so
bugs and various bumps is to be expected. Please report any issues here on
github.

alot easier to install. Until then you could build it from source.

## Building from source
#### Automatic installation using ./build.sh
If you haven't worked with builds before you could try to run the following
command chain:
~~~ sh
$ git clone --branch %VERSION% --recursive https://github.com/jaagr/lemonbuddy.git
$ cd lemonbuddy
$ ./build.sh
~~~
NOTE: **git-perl** is required for submodules to work in **Void Linux**
---
#### It is of course recommended that you control the build process yourself.
~~~ sh
$ git clone --branch %VERSION% --recursive https://github.com/jaagr/lemonbuddy.git
$ mkdir lemonbuddy/build
$ cd lemonbuddy/build
$ cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr ..
# List and edit build variables
$ make edit_cache
$ sudo make install
~~~
