I3BAR(1) i3 Manual I3BAR(1) NAME i3bar - xcb-based status- and workspace-bar SYNOPSIS i3bar [-b bar_id] [-s sock_path] [-t] [-h] [-v] [-V] WARNING i3bar will automatically be invoked by i3 for every bar configuration block. Starting it manually is usually not what you want to do. You have been warned! OPTIONS -s, --socket sock_path Overwrites the path to the i3 IPC socket. -b, --bar_id bar_id Specifies the bar ID for which to get the configuration from i3. By de- fault, i3bar will use the first bar block as configured in i3. -t, --transparency Enable transparency (RGBA colors) -h, --help Display a short help-message and exit -v, --version Display version number and exit. -V Be verbose. DESCRIPTION i3bar displays a bar at the bottom (or top) of your monitor(s) containing workspace switching buttons and a statusline generated by i3status(1) or similar. It is automatically invoked (and configured through) i3. i3bar supports using a JSON protocol for setting the status line, see https://i3wm.org/docs/i3bar-protocol.html Since i3 4.23, i3bar supports another JSON protocol for setting workspace buttons. See https://i3wm.org/docs/i3bar-workspace-protocol.html. ENVIRONMENT I3SOCK Used as a fallback for the i3 IPC socket path if neither the commandline contains an argument nor the I3_SOCKET_PATH property is set on the X11 root window. EXAMPLES Nothing to see here, move along. As stated above, you should not run i3bar manually. Instead, see the i3 documentation, especially the User's Guide. SEE ALSO i3status(1), j4status(1) or conky(1) for programs generating a statusline. dzen2(1) or xmobar(1) for similar programs to i3bar.
