- Replace nerd font glyphs that were stripped during the initial widget
writes with verified codepoints sourced from the JetBrains Mono Nerd
Font cmap (cpu-64-bit, scale-balance, notification-clear-all, etc).
- systemStats now switches to a Column layout when the bar is vertical
so the widget no longer overflows a 28px-wide side bar.
- Remove notificationCenter from defaults: it registers a notification
server and would collide with the mako daemon Omarchy autostarts.
- PopupCard owns the popout coordinator lifecycle and delegates close to
its widget owner when provided; calendar and media now pass owner.
- brightness debounces brightnessctl writes through a coalescing timer
to avoid spawning a process per slider tick.
- audioPanel tracks unfiltered Pipewire sinks/streams via PwObjectTracker
so audio metadata becomes available before filtering.
- ModuleSlot re-injects bar/moduleName/settings whenever the bar config
serial changes so widget settings update live with bar.json.
- Guard null bar references in workspacesPro and systemStats components
that are constructed before bar injection.
Introduces a widgets/ directory of first-party QML modules and a common/
helpers library. Widgets auto-load by name from
default/quickshell/bar/widgets/<name>.qml — no edits to shell.qml needed
for additions beyond the firstPartyWidgets registry.
New widgets (all orientation-aware, top/bottom/left/right):
- media: MPRIS now-playing with scrolling label, cover art popup,
play/pause/skip controls
- audioPanel: master volume slider, output device picker, per-app mixer
- networkPanel: Wi-Fi scan + connect, current connection details
- bluetoothPanel: paired device list, connect/disconnect, battery
- calendar: month grid popup keyed to today
- notificationCenter: live notification feed, DND toggle, clear all
- brightness: slider popup with scroll-to-adjust
- powerProfile: power-saver/balanced/performance picker (UPower)
- systemStats: inline CPU + RAM sparklines, expanded popup with btop
- weatherFlyout: weather popup with refresh and full report
- workspacesPro: animated focus indicator that slides between workspaces
- powerMenu: lock/suspend/log out/reboot/shutdown popup
- idleInhibitor: coffee-cup toggle wired to omarchy-toggle-idle
- microphone: mic state + mute toggle + scroll volume
Common helpers (default/quickshell/bar/common/):
- WidgetButton: hover/press scale animation, tooltip integration
- PopupCard: orientation-aware anchor + slide-in opacity transition
- Slider: drag/wheel-able linear slider with knob hover bump
- PillButton: rounded action button with icon + label
Bar root gains requestPopout/releasePopout so only one popup is open at
a time across widgets.
Updates bar-defaults.json to ship the new widgets out of the box while
keeping the legacy modules available.
