10 conky \- A system monitor for X originally based on the torsmo code, but more kickass. It just keeps on given'er. Yeah.

23 Conky is a system monitor for X originally based on torsmo.
24 Since its inception, Conky has changed significantly from its predecessor, while maintaining
25 simplicity and configurability. Conky can display just about anything, either
26 on your root desktop or in its own window. Not only does Conky have many
27 built-in objects, it can also display just about any piece of information by
28 using scripts and other external programs.
30 Conky has more than 250 built in objects, including support for
31 a plethora of OS stats (uname, uptime, CPU usage, mem usage, disk
32 usage, "top" like process stats, and network monitoring, just to name a few),
33 built in IMAP and POP3 support, built in support for many popular
34 music players (MPD, XMMS2, BMPx, Audacious), and much much more.
35 Conky can display this info either as text, or using simple progress
36 bars and graph widgets, with different fonts and colours.
38 We are always looking for help, whether its reporting bugs, writing patches, or writing docs.
39 Please use the facilities at SourceForge to make bug reports, feature requests, and submit patches,
40 or stop by #conky on irc.freenode.net if you have questions or want to contribute.
42 Thanks for your interest in Conky.
44 For users compiling from source on a binary distro, make sure you have the X development
45 libraries installed. This should be a package along the lines of "libx11-dev" or
46 "xorg-x11-dev" for X11 libs, and similar "-dev" format for the other libs required (depending
47 on your configure options).
49 Conky has (for some time) been available in the repositories of most popular distributions.
50 Here are some installation instructions for a few:
52 Gentoo users -- Conky is in Gentoo's Portage... simply use "emerge app-admin/conky" for installation.
53 There is also usually an up-to-date ebuild within Conky's package or in the git repo.
55 Debian, etc. users -- Conky should be in your repositories, and can be installed by doing
56 "aptitude install conky".
58 Example to compile and run Conky with all optional components (note that some configure options may differ for your system):

70 Conky has been tested to be compatible with C99 C, however it has not been tested
71 with anything other than gcc, and is not guaranteed to work with other compilers.
74 Conky is generally very good on resources. That said, the more you try to make Conky
75 do, the more resources it is going to consume.
77 An easy way to force Conky to reload your ~/.conkyrc: "killall -SIGUSR1 conky".
78 Saves you the trouble of having to kill and then restart. You can now also do the same with SIGHUP.
80 Command line options override configurations defined in configuration file.

694 \fB\*(T<\fBexec\fR\*(T>\fR \*(T<\fBcommand\fR\*(T>

722 \fB\*(T<\fBexecp\fR\*(T>\fR \*(T<\fBcommand\fR\*(T>
723 Executes a shell command and displays the output in conky. warning: this takes a lot more resources than other variables. I'd recommend coding wanted behaviour in C and posting a patch. This differs from $exec in that it parses the output of the command, so you can insert things like ${color red}hi!${color} in your script and have it correctly parsed by Conky.
724 Caveats: Conky parses and evaluates the output of $execp every time Conky loops, and then destroys all the objects. If you try to use anything like $execi within an $execp statement, it will functionally run at the same interval that the $execp statement runs, as it is created and destroyed at every interval.
727 \fB\*(T<\fBexecpi\fR\*(T>\fR \*(T<\fBinterval command\fR\*(T>

1263 If running on Apple powerbook/ibook, display
1264 information on battery status. The item parameter
1265 specifies, what information to display. Exactly one item
1266 must be specified. Valid items are:
1269 Display if battery is fully charged, charging,
1270 discharging or absent (running on AC)
1273 Display charge of battery in percent, if
1274 charging or discharging. Nothing will be
1275 displayed, if battery is fully charged
1279 Display the time remaining until the battery
1280 will be fully charged or discharged at current
1281 rate. Nothing is displayed, if battery is
1282 absent or if it's present but fully charged
1283 and not discharging.
1286 \fB\*(T<\fBplatform\fR\*(T>\fR \*(T<\fB(dev) type n\fR\*(T>
1287 Platform sensor from sysfs (Linux 2.6). Parameter dev may be omitted if you have only one platform device. Platform type is either 'in' or 'vol' meaning voltage; 'fan' meaning fan; 'temp' meaning temperature. Parameter n is number of the sensor. See /sys/bus/platform/devices/ on your local computer.
1290 \fB\*(T<\fBpop3_unseen\fR\*(T>\fR \*(T<\fB(args)\fR\*(T>
1291 Displays the number of unseen messages in your global POP3 inbox by default. You can define individual POP3 inboxes seperately by passing arguments to this object. Arguments are: "host user pass [-i interval] [-p port] [-e command] [-r retries]". Default port is 110, default interval is 5 minutes, and default number of retries before giving up is 5. If the password is supplied as '*', you will be prompted to enter the password when Conky starts.
1294 \fB\*(T<\fBpop3_used\fR\*(T>\fR \*(T<\fB(args)\fR\*(T>
1295 Displays the amount of space (in MiB, 2^20) used in your global POP3 inbox by default. You can define individual POP3 inboxes seperately by passing arguments to this object. Arguments are: "host user pass [-i interval] [-p port] [-e command] [-r retries]". Default port is 110, default interval is 5 minutes, and default number of retries before giving up is 5. If the password is supplied as '*', you will be prompted to enter the password when Conky starts.
1298 \fB\*(T<\fBpre_exec\fR\*(T>\fR \*(T<\fBshell command\fR\*(T>

1310 \fB\*(T<\fBscroll\fR\*(T>\fR \*(T<\fBlength (step) text\fR\*(T>
1311 Scroll 'text' by 'step' characters showing 'length' number of characters at the same time. The text may also contain variables. 'step' is optional and defaults to 1 if not set. If a var creates output on multiple lines then the lines are placed behind each other separated with a '|'-sign. Do NOT use vars that change colors or otherwise affect the design inside a scrolling text. If you want spaces between the start and the end of 'text', place them at the end of 'text' not at the front ("foobar" and " foobar" can both generate "barfoo" but "foobar " will keep the spaces like this "bar foo").
1314 \fB\*(T<\fBshadecolor\fR\*(T>\fR \*(T<\fB(color)\fR\*(T>
1315 Change shading color
1318 \fB\*(T<\fBsmapi\fR\*(T>\fR \*(T<\fB(ARGS)\fR\*(T>
1319 when using smapi, display contents of the /sys/devices/platform/smapi directory. ARGS are either '(FILENAME)' or 'bat (INDEX) (FILENAME)' to display the corresponding files' content. This is a very raw method of accessing the smapi values. When available, better use one of the smapi_* variables instead.
1322 \fB\*(T<\fBsmapi_bat_bar\fR\*(T>\fR \*(T<\fB(INDEX),(height),(width)\fR\*(T>
1323 when using smapi, display the remaining capacity of the battery with index INDEX as a bar.
1326 \fB\*(T<\fBsmapi_bat_perc\fR\*(T>\fR \*(T<\fB(INDEX)\fR\*(T>
1327 when using smapi, display the remaining capacity in percent of the battery with index INDEX. This is a separate variable because it supports the 'use_spacer' configuration option.
1330 \fB\*(T<\fBsmapi_bat_power\fR\*(T>\fR \*(T<\fBINDEX\fR\*(T>
1331 when using smapi, display the current power of the battery with index INDEX in watt. This is a separate variable because the original read out value is being converted from mW. The sign of the output reflects charging (positive) or discharging (negative) state.
1334 \fB\*(T<\fBsmapi_bat_temp\fR\*(T>\fR \*(T<\fBINDEX\fR\*(T>
1335 when using smapi, display the current temperature of the battery with index INDEX in degree Celsius. This is a separate variable because the original read out value is being converted from milli degree Celsius.
1338 \fB\*(T<\fBstippled_hr\fR\*(T>\fR \*(T<\fB(space)\fR\*(T>
1339 Stippled (dashed) horizontal line
1342 \fB\*(T<\fBswapbar\fR\*(T>\fR \*(T<\fB(height),(width)\fR\*(T>

1362 \fB\*(T<\fBtcp_portmon\fR\*(T>\fR \*(T<\fBport_begin port_end item (index)\fR\*(T> \fI(ip4 only at present)\fR
1363 TCP port monitor for specified local ports. Port numbers must be in the range 1 to 65535. Valid items are:
1365 \fBcount\fR - total number of connections in the range
1367 \fBrip\fR - remote ip address
1369 \fBrhost\fR - remote host name
1371 \fBrport\fR - remote port number
1373 \fBrservice\fR - remote service name from /etc/services
1375 \fBlip\fR - local ip address
1377 \fBlhost\fR - local host name
1379 \fBlport\fR - local port number
1381 \fBlservice\fR - local service name from /etc/services
1383 The connection index provides you with access to each connection in the port monitor. The monitor will return information for index values from 0 to n-1 connections. Values higher than n-1 are simply ignored. For the "count" item, the connection index must be omitted. It is required for all other items.
1387 \fB${tcp_portmon 6881 6999 count}\fR -
1388 displays the number of connections in the bittorrent port range
1390 \fB${tcp_portmon 22 22 rip 0}\fR -
1391 displays the remote host ip of the first sshd connection
1393 \fB${tcp_portmon 22 22 rip 9}\fR -
1394 displays the remote host ip of the tenth sshd connection
1396 \fB${tcp_portmon 1 1024 rhost 0}\fR -
1397 displays the remote host name of the first connection on a privileged port
1399 \fB${tcp_portmon 1 1024 rport 4}\fR -
1400 displays the remote host port of the fifth connection on a privileged port
1402 \fB${tcp_portmon 1 65535 lservice 14}\fR -
1403 displays the local service name of the fifteenth connection in the range of all ports
1405 Note that port monitor variables which share the same port range actually refer to the same monitor, so many references to a single port range for different items and different indexes all use the same monitor internally. In other words, the program avoids creating redundant monitors.
1407 \fB\*(T<\fBtexeci\fR\*(T>\fR \*(T<\fBinterval command\fR\*(T>
1408 Runs a command at an interval inside a thread and displays the output. Same as $execi, except the command is run inside a thread. Use this if you have a slow script to keep Conky updating. You should make the interval slightly longer then the time it takes your script to execute. For example, if you have a script that take 5 seconds to execute, you should make the interval at least 6 seconds. See also $execi.
1411 \fB\*(T<\fBoffset\fR\*(T>\fR \*(T<\fB(pixels)\fR\*(T>
1412 Move text over by N pixels. See also $voffset.
1415 \fB\*(T<\fBrss\fR\*(T>\fR \*(T<\fBurl delay_in_minutes action item_num\fR\*(T>
1416 Download and parse RSS feeds. Action may be one of the following: feed_title, item_title (with num par), item_desc (with num par) and item_titles.
1419 \fB\*(T<\fBtab\fR\*(T>\fR \*(T<\fB(width, (start))\fR\*(T>
1420 Puts a tab of the specified width, starting from column 'start'.
1423 \fB\*(T<\fBtail\fR\*(T>\fR \*(T<\fBlogfile lines (interval)\fR\*(T>
1424 Displays last N lines of supplied text text file. If interval is not supplied, Conky assumes 2x Conky's interval. Max of 30 lines can be displayed, or until the text buffer is filled.
1427 \fB\*(T<\fBtemplateN\fR\*(T>\fR \*(T<\fB(arg1)\fR\*(T> \*(T<\fB(arg2)\fR\*(T> \*(T<\fB(arg3 ...)\fR\*(T>
1428 Evaluate the content of the templateN configuration variable (where N is a value between 0 and 9, inclusively),
1429 applying substitutions as described in the documentation of the corresponding configuration variable.
1430 The number of arguments is optional, but must match the highest referred index in the template. You can use the
1431 same special sequences in each argument as the ones valid for a template definition, e.g. to allow an argument
1432 to contain a whitespace. Also simple nesting of templates is possible this way.
1434 Here are some examples of template definitions:
1438 template1 \e1: ${fs_used \e2} / ${fs_size \e2}
1442 The following list shows sample usage of the templates defined above,
1443 with the equivalent syntax when not using any template at all:
1449 same without template
1457 ${template0 node name}
1464 root: ${fs_free /} / ${fs_size /}
1468 \*(T<${template1 ${template2\e disk\e root} /}\*(T>

1482 \fB\*(T<\fButime\fR\*(T>\fR \*(T<\fB(format)\fR\*(T>
1483 Display time in UTC (universal coordinate time).
1486 \fB\*(T<\fBtztime\fR\*(T>\fR \*(T<\fB(timezone) (format)\fR\*(T>
1487 Local time for specified timezone, see man strftime to get more information about format. The timezone argument is specified in similar fashion as TZ environment variable. For hints, look in /usr/share/zoneinfo. e.g. US/Pacific, Europe/Zurich, etc.
1490 \fB\*(T<\fBtotaldown\fR\*(T>\fR \*(T<\fBnet\fR\*(T>
1491 Total download, overflows at 4 GB on Linux with 32-bit arch and there doesn't seem to be a way to know how many times it has already done that before conky has started.
1494 \fB\*(T<\fBtop\fR\*(T>\fR \*(T<\fBtype, num\fR\*(T>
1495 This takes arguments in the form:top (name) (number) Basically, processes are ranked from highest to lowest in terms of cpu usage, which is what (num) represents. The types are: "name", "pid", "cpu", "mem", "mem_res", "mem_vsize", and "time". There can be a max of 10 processes listed.
1498 \fB\*(T<\fBtop_mem\fR\*(T>\fR \*(T<\fBtype, num\fR\*(T>

1691 Drawing to root or some other desktop window directly doesn't work with
1692 all window managers. Especially doesn't work well with Gnome and it has
1693 been reported that it doesn't work with KDE either. Nautilus can be
1694 disabled from drawing to desktop with program gconf-editor. Uncheck
1695 show_desktop in /apps/nautilus/preferences/. There is -w switch in Conky
1696 to set some specific window id. You might find xwininfo -tree useful to
1697 find the window to draw to. You can also use -o argument which makes
1698 Conky to create its own window. If you do try running Conky in its own
1699 window, be sure to read up on the own_window_type settings and experiment.
