Hi Guix,

Here is a patch to update polybar. There were some slight tweaks needed: new input, remove unneeded native-input, and change where the default configuration file is installed (from /etc) to #$output/etc/xdg.

This last change may look slightly different from the default behavior, but this will put it where it should be found using XDG_CONFIG_DIRS. This was made in the change to polybar that also moved/altered the configuration installation: https://github.com/polybar/polybar/commit/282b0f4e73e9cbb68afd6e168c472e3f422e9a6f#diff-6b4c594394f4751f9012dc3889b278312f0e7275ab48edbe3b02d434e183aa52

I tested that it builds and polybar will find this default configuration file when no config is otherwise found or specified. The default bar looked fine to me. Note that I did test this where I do have XDG_CONFIG_DIRS set for that profile anyway.

Thanks!
John

Looks good to me as-is, builds and runs fine, although I'd prefer to
keep the file at /etc/, and patch src/utils/file.cpp to look for
$output/etc/polybar/config.ini.  That way, polybar would work without a
config file even when not installed.  Also, if you have the time, could
you move the native-inputs to the new style as an additional commit?

WDYT?

Not sure I understand what you mean by not needing to have polybar installed. Do you mean not having to worry about XDG_CONFIG_DIRS being set up? Running directly from /gnu/store? I can make that change (it was the alternative I thought of too) if that would help useability for a new user without a config.

And yes, can update with a second commit to clean native-inputs as well.

Thanks for taking a look!

John

Yes, I meant running from store or using `guix shell polybar -- polybar`
(which does not setup XDG_CONFIG_DIRS).

Great!

Thank you for your contribution!

Done in the update first patch, checked that now `guix shell polybar -- polybar` finds the default config.

Added this second little patch.

Thanks!

Applied together with the patch that removes input labels.
