 Posted: Mon Oct 25, 2004 3:14 am Post subject: Fvwm: ACPI, Gmail & emerge menus |
 |
|
ACPI Script
I modified GaMMas ACPI script for OpenBox to work with FVWM.
Basically it allows you to set the cpu frequency scheduling, see remaining battery capacity, temperature...
You must have ACPI Battery, Thermal Zone and CPU Frequency Scaling Support compiled in the kernel for this to work.
Here's a screenshot of it in action
What you need to do is:
1/ Download the script from here.
2/ Put it in the directory of your choice and chmod +x
3/ You should open the file in an editor and check that rootcmd is propoerly set for your needs
4/ Add the following to your root_menu definition in your FVWM config files:
| Code: | | + "ACPI" Popup acpi |
5/ In the same file as above, add the following at the end of the file:
| Code: | DestroyMenu acpi
AddToMenu acpi ACPI title
+ DynamicPopupAction Function GetAcpi
DestroyFunc GetAcpi
AddToFunc GetAcpi
+ I DestroyMenu recreate acpi
+ I AddToMenu acpi ACPI title
+ I Piperead 'echo "`/path/to/get-acpi`"' |
6/ There, you should be good to go
Gov: displays the current scaling_governor, when clicked if scaling_gov is performance it'll switch to powersave, and if it's anything else it goes to performance.
Gmail Script
The gmail script is also modified from one of GaMMas OpenBox scripts
1/ Download the script from here.
2/ Put it in the directory of your choice and chmod +x
3/ You should open the file in an editor and setup your username password etc...
4/ Add the following to your root_menu definition in your FVWM config files:
| Code: | | + "Gmail" Popup gmail |
5/ In the same file as above, add the following at the end of the file:
| Code: | DestroyMenu gmail
AddToMenu gmail Gmail title
+ DynamicPopupAction Function Getgmail
DestroyFunc Getgmail
AddToFunc Getgmail
+ I DestroyMenu recreate gmail
+ I AddToMenu gmail Gmail title
+ I Piperead 'echo "`/path/to/gmail`"' |
6/ You need to grab libgmail (http://libgmail.sf.net/) and untar it in the directory where the script is then overwrite libgmail.py with the cvs version (http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/libgmail/libgmail/libgmail.py)
7/ There, you should be good to go
Clicking on the entry will open up gmail in your browser.
Emerge script
This script is a modified version of Skennedys system update menu for openbox. You can see what it does here
1/ Download the script from here.
2/ Put it in the directory of your choice and chmod +x
3/ You should open the file in an editor and change the $term variable
4/ Add the following to your root_menu definition in your FVWM config files:
| Code: | | + "Updates" Popup sysup |
5/ In the same file as above, add the following at the end of the file:
| Code: | DestroyMenu sysup
AddToMenu sysup Updates title
+ DynamicPopupAction Function Getsysup
DestroyFunc Getsysup
AddToFunc Getsysup
+ I DestroyMenu recreate sysup
+ I AddToMenu sysup Updates title
+ I Piperead 'echo "`/path/to/sysup`"' |
6/ There, you should be good to go
Clicking on "update all" will obviously update all the packages, clicking on an individual one will only update that one.
The script store the results of emerge -uDp world in a cache file to allow fast loading of the menu, you can clear the cache by clicking on "clear cache".

COULD YOU DO THE SAME FOR THE OPENBOX GMAIL CHECKER (which is also in python).
Thanks! |

Ok, I added the third script to my initial post.
Unfortunately I'm in Slackware right now, so I'm not entirely sure it works, if someone could confirm that would be great

I updated the screenshot:
http://www.awarmplace.net/emerge.jpg
Basically it gives you the output of emerge -uDp world and lets you update one or all of the packages depending on what you click on.

Don't you need root access for that?
And btw the gmail script isn't working! I get some error in line 62! |

Not if you have sudo.
Could you be more specific about the error?

Well if I do ctrl+alt+f1 I can see the error but how do I copy it over?
It says something in Line 62
AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'GmailSessionState' |

That's strange...
could you post the error? (go into the directory where you put the script and type ./gmail in a terminal, you'll be albe to copy the output that way  )

I'm using the Emerge script except I have a problem...
I editted the files correctly and I have a new menu called "Updates" clicking on it lists all possible updates I need but...Clicking any update/update all results in nothing...Dropping back to CLI I have an error "Invalid Argument: sudo"
Now I'm confused...because I installed and setup sudo just fine and "sudo emerge -up world" works fine...Any ideas? |

There were some errors with the ACPI script. I was getting a double sudo (like, sudo sudo command) in the menu entry and, to make things worse, there was a newline between "Gov: xxx" and Exec exec... so when I clicked on it nothing happened. Of course I am giving back the modified version. Thanks for your work.

print " AddToMenu acpi \"Gov: " + governor + "\" Exec " + rootcmd + "ondemand"
else:

Some of the changes are customized to my needs, indeed I'm using aterm and I use two bash scripts, "speedup" and "ondemand", to change governor. I hope I've been helpful.
EDIT: whoops, I introduced an error myself ^^ corrected

I didn't check the emerge script but if the error is the same I was getting, your menu is probably running a "sudo sudo command"; or, there may be a newline between "AddToMenu etc etc" and "Exec exec etc.". You can check the actual output of the script with "python /path/to/script_file", see if you're getting one of those errors.

Can someone give me a hand and give me the current url because the one above is no longer there .
Im searching for the i2c script for reading temps on fvwm menu
| Code: |
ACPI Script
I modified GaMMas ACPI script for OpenBox to work with FVWM.
Basically it allows you to set the cpu frequency scheduling, see remaining battery capacity, temperature...
You must have ACPI Battery, Thermal Zone and CPU Frequency Scaling Support compiled in the kernel for this to work.
Here's a screenshot of it in action
What you need to do is:
1/ Download the script from here.
2/ Put it in the directory of your choice and chmod +x
3/ You should open the file in an editor and check that rootcmd is propoerly set for your needs
4/ Add the following to your root_menu definition in your FVWM config files:
Code:
+ "ACPI" Popup acpi
5/ In the same file as above, add the following at the end of the file:
Code:
DestroyMenu acpi
AddToMenu acpi ACPI title
+ DynamicPopupAction Function GetAcpi
DestroyFunc GetAcpi
AddToFunc GetAcpi
+ I DestroyMenu recreate acpi
+ I AddToMenu acpi ACPI title
+ I Piperead 'echo "`/path/to/get-acpi`"'
|
but the URL metioned is no longer that one .
Does anyone has that script or the url so that i can download it ??

If all who are looking for these scripts, they've been unavailable since I switched hosts back in December.
I've added two of the three to my homepage ( http://82.67.23.100/ ) under the "scripts" section, I'll add the third one shortly. The instructions are in french but they're the same as in this thread.

Are these scripts still available somewhere? I'm interested in the gmail script.
I have the script for openbox, so if someone can give me directions on how to change it I might be able to do it myself.
EDIT: never mind, I already changed the script myself.
I'll post the modified script here in case somebody is intersted:
| Code: | #!/usr/bin/python2.3
# Authors: cduquette@gmail.com follower@myrealbox.com
# License: GPL 2.0
# modified by jspeybro to work in FVWM
# this has been done by others, but the script was not available anymore
# I didn't test this very well
# Usage in FVWM:
# put an entry in your fvwm-menu like this:
# + "Gmail" Popup gmail
# add the folowing code below the menu-part
# DestroyMenu gmail
# AddToMenu gmail Gmail title
# + DynamicPopupAction Function Getgmail
#
# DestroyFunc Getgmail
# AddToFunc Getgmail
# + I DestroyMenu recreate gmail
# + I AddToMenu gmail Gmail title
# + I Piperead 'echo "`$[fvwm_scripts]/gmail.py`"'
# change the line above to point it to this script
# change the name,pw and browser variable in this script
import os
import sys
import logging
name = "username"
pw = "password"
browser = "firefox"
filename = "/tmp/.gmail.cache"
# jspeybro: I changed & to & to make it work for me
login = "\'https://www.google.com/accounts/ServiceLoginBoxAuth?service=mail&continue=https%3A%2F%2Fgmail.google.com%2Fgmail&Email=" + name + "&Passwd=" + pw + "\'"
# Allow us to run using installed `libgmail` or the one in parent directory.
try:
import libgmail
except ImportError:
# Urghhh...
sys.path.insert(1,
os.path.realpath(os.path.join(os.path.dirname(__file__),
os.path.pardir)))
import libgmail
if __name__ == "__main__":
import sys
from getpass import getpass
if not os.path.isfile(filename):
ga = libgmail.GmailAccount(name, pw)
try:
ga.login()
except libgmail.GmailLoginFailure:
print "+ \"login failed\" Exec exec " +browser + " " + login
print "+ \"Open gmail in " + browser + "\" Exec exec" + browser + " " + login
raise SystemExit
else:
ga = libgmail.GmailAccount(
state = libgmail.GmailSessionState(filename = filename))
msgtotals = ga.getUnreadMsgCount()
if msgtotals == 0:
print "+ \"0 unread messages\" Exec exec " +browser + " " + login
elif msgtotals == 1:
print " + \"1 new message.\" Exec exec " + browser + " " + login
else:
print "+ \"" + str(msgtotals) + " new messages.\" Exec exec " + browser + " " + login
state = libgmail.GmailSessionState(account = ga).save(filename)
|
I modified it so that it just shows how many messages you have in your inmox. when you click on it, it wil open your account in the specified browser.
