<infandum> I made a custom config for taffybar and I was porting it to xmobar for less headaches with building

<fresheyeball> Yaniel: so any idea how to inform taffybar of the new font stuff?
<fresheyeball> no just taffybar
<Yaniel> I mean you should make sure the taffybar package depends on the right version
<fresheyeball> how can I inform taffybar of the right place to look for fonts?
<fresheyeball> I tried installing taffybar from nixpkgs master branch
<fresheyeball> so I am trying to get taffybar working again post 20.09

2020-09-13

<evanjs> ping infinisil just bc (IIRC you're not using taffybar atm but it's still a wider haskell/xmonad breakage thing :P)
<evanjs> maralorn: (only person I saw in the issue in IRC lol) -- anybody familiar with what might need to be done to get taffybar working during ZHF?

2020-08-19

<evanjs> looks like taffybar is up and running again, and I now have a single (and implicit :D) point of modification for haskellPackages 🎉
<evanjs> erm I switched only the xmonad-contrib back to what I had in my config previously. And also renamed `self: super:` in the recommended snippet to `hself: hsuper` so that worked with taffybar overlay from NickHu
<evanjs> I mean it depends on what you're doing. If you have a taffybar that pulls in one version of GHC and a copy of hies that pulls in another, well, two versions of GHC will get pulled in, etc

2020-07-08

<bqv> that's one reason why i tried to just put taffybar into xmonad with forkIO
<evanjs> currently using taffybar, xmonad, and services.hoogle. I figures that's where most of it is

<lopsided98> mac10688: taffybar is fixed in master, but not 20.03: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/63500
<mac10688> Package 'taffybar...' is marked as broken, refusing to evaluate
<mac10688> i added taffybar to my configuration.nix file and i went to nixos-rebuild switch and I got an errror message that says
<cole-h> btw, Nixpkgs doesn't have a taffybar module, but home-manager does.
<mac10688> when I go to the website and type taffybar, I see something that says attribute name, haskellPackages.taffybar
<mac10688> i don't see the taffybar package listed on the website when i search for it
<lopsided98> mac10688: I'm not sure about the reference to a module, but I think you are supposed to use the taffybar package instead of the haskellPackages.taffybar package. The former seems to perform some extra wrapping.
<mac10688> Hi again, I am trying to install taffybar into nixos. The instructions say to be sure to use the module and not simply the haskellPackage for taffybar. I'm not sure what that means however.

2020-05-09

<staydownchamp> taffybar seems completely broken on 20.03, but haskell packages generally aren't supported on major releases or something

2020-04-28

<freeman42x[m]> how can I change the `taffybar` package here to use `unstable` ? https://gist.github.com/razvan-flavius-panda/f268da8b9e424e681e80daafcca1f536
<freeman42x[m]> I don't understand installation procedure for taffybar under NixOS: https://github.com/taffybar/taffybar or rather, I can't find it anywhere in there

2020-04-05

<Orbstheorem> I happily used a not-so-trivial xmonad + taffybar + tmux for some time

2020-03-10

<evanjs> evils: yeah I got the feeling there aren’t as many checks as there should be, though I’m using xmonad. I’ll see what happens when taffybar isn’t running

2020-02-21

<evanjs> hrm... got a few more icons working by removing a postInstall gdk_pixbuf wrapper I had on taffybar but various icons still don't show :/
<evanjs> okay so I'm unsure if it's just taffybar or GDK_PIXBUF or something with the desktop files, but is anybody else getting "Failed to load icon from filepath clion" errors? Maybe in the dock or, well, taffybar :P
<evanjs> building taffybar on my own should be interesting... ;_;l

<evanjs> isgy[m]: using xmonad+taffybar on 3 machines atm

2020-02-08

<sondr3> evanjs: you around? I can't get taffybar to build, it always gives me a "package taffybar is broken" even though I try to build it from stable

2020-02-06

<evanjs> wait taffybar or taffy? they're both ivan's....
<evanjs> Either most of the compilation is already done upstream... or the taffybar cache I have referenced in my cachix config is the reason I never have to wait too long :P
<evanjs> sondr3: nah you shouldn't need to worry about that. I'm fine even enabling hoogle for xmonad+taffybar on my laptop... but then I have a G751JY with a 980M, so... maybe not the best example

2020-02-02

<sondr3> I have about 6831 questions about setting up xmonad and taffybar on NixOS
<evanjs> The taffybar package in top-level is fine IIRC
<evanjs> Very lazy right now but here’s the taffybar folder lol https://github.com/evanjs/nixos_cfg/tree/master/config/new-modules/x/taffybar
<evanjs> sondr3: any reason you’re using the overlay for taffybar? Seems to work fine without on my end
<sondr3> huh, I'm attempting to use niv to manage some overlays but the taffybar one just throws `fatal: '/nix/store/6nzd8hxc170384l68qrf7yqp7x4wkgpg-source' does not appear to be a git repository` when I attempt to import it

2020-01-25

* craige wonders if anyone has any has any xmonad + taffybar nix configs thay've shared?

2020-01-24

<evanjs> noonien: might be something with nixpkgs.hicolor-icon-theme. If I don't have that installed, for example, taffybar will crash when I open chrome or etc

2020-01-23

<evanjs> doubly overridden taffybar, locked on stable because gdkx11 is broken on unstable lol
<evanjs> yayyy taffybar in local hoogle
<evanjs> *checks taffybar* >.> it works fine... is there a way to allow individual broken packages?
<evanjs> ughhh taffybar, y u no give me hoogle docs? are packages given to services.hoogle.packages guaranteed to show up on the resulting hoogle server?

2020-01-21

<evanjs> infinisil: I figured as much :D was trying to figure out how to add a shell.nix for xmonad but wasn't sure how to approach it -- assuming it needs to be similar to your taffybar setup if it's under new-modules/x/wm

2020-01-07

<evanjs> xmonad has some patches to modify where it checks for ghc but I don't see anything like such that can be changed in taffybar
<evanjs> ahhh this is what infinisil mentioned with runtime compilation (for taffybar). I don't like ittttttt. now, how do I get it to function like xmonad does...
<evanjs> Welp. Somehow got the taffybar thing working -- now for cleanup.. and I wonder if there's a way to get it to not need a config in $XDG_CONFIG/taffybar/...

2020-01-06

<evanjs> (e.g. where taffybar checks for the config, etc)
<lassulus> whats taffybar written in?
<evanjs> Is there an easy way to replicate xmonad's config option, but for, e.g. taffybar? Tried copying it fairly literally the other day and got so lost

2019-12-18

* DigitalKiwi looks at pandoc and also thinks taffybar and xmonad might be ones to look at too

2019-11-16

<slack1256> Yeah I knew about that behaviour with respect to autogroup. But now I am using cgroup-v2 actual tree, controlling memory/disk/cpu (nix-shell/ghc compiling taffybar) and another cgroup with cpu weight high for mpv. I was wondering if the nice behaviour of autogroups translate to cgroups.

2019-10-14

<slack1256> But what home-manager does give you is a way to declare configurations at /home/user level for the programs you declare. Think .xinit, xmonad.hs, xmodmap, offlineimap, taffybar, tex-packages, .emacs.d . All that lives on a per-user instance which shouldn't be globally managed.

2019-06-23

<slack1256> I noticed that broadcast-chan is not broken if you use dontCheck. Adding that change also allow building taffybar.

<srhb> iyra: Getting an environment that can build both is easy enough though: nix-shell -p 'haskellPackages.ghcWithPackages (hps: with hps; [ xmonad taffybar dbus ... ] )' -- add whatever as ...
<srhb> iyra: taffybar is hell to set up correctly, but I don't think it's easier on stack :)
<Iyra> srhb: I'll take another look, but my root problem is just trying to get xmonad+taffybar to work, and taffybar wants some xmonad packages for some features, and xmonad wants some taffybar packages, but they can't see each other at all. I found this guide that told me to go the stack route: https://functor.tokyo/blog/2018-02-16-setup-xmonad-on-nixos

2019-05-20

<srhb> Speaking of bars... Anything good out there that fits xmonad that emphatically isn't taffybar?

2019-05-06

<gentauro> I mean, I'm not in a hurry with this. I rather do it correctly from the start (I dropped my initial blog post) and I'm following taffybars own guide (from GitHub)
<gentauro> I can live without taffybar ;)
<srhb> Like, home-manager comes with a taffybar service.
<gentauro> at this point, since I got `xmonad` to work, I'm thinking about just dropping `taffybar`
<gentauro> stack exec --resolver=lts-13.19 -- taffybar
<srhb> gentauro: How are you starting taffybar?

2019-05-02

<srhb> Both xmonad and taffybar work just great for me.
<srhb> I don't know, I don't have any problem with taffybar :P
<gentauro> what if I skip taffybar? :D
<gentauro> so when you say I can use your taffybar
<srhb> Just use our taffybar :-P
<gentauro> hmmm, a bit annoying message I'm getting with *stack* when I try to install "taffybar" :|

2019-03-04

<jomik> wedens: The widget for outdated channel - did you want a taffybar one? Or just a shell script that can be given to a bar? :P
<therealwaphire[m> for eaxmple, running taffybar outputs 3 of "Directory does not exists:" warnings

2019-02-25

<therealwaphire[m> guys, anybody use taffybar and xmonad here?

2019-02-16

<s2mitrov> when I run home-manager switch, I get "User systemd daemon not running. Skipping reload" - sounds like maybe why my redshift and taffybar aren't working?
<s2mitrov> the only two options in the manual are `services.taffybar.enable` and `services.taffybar.package`, so I'd assume it would just work when i do services.taffybar.enable = true if I've already got taffybar in my xmonad extraPackages config
<s2mitrov> anyone using home-manager to manage their wm +/- bar? I've moved my xmonad config from /etc/nixos/configuration.nix into my home-manager config and it's working great, but I can't seem to get taffybar to work at all

2019-02-15

<jomik> As in, whether I want to enable my taffybar configuration or not.
<jomik> ottidmes: Yeah, makes sense. Tho, I guess I realize that what I want would probably just be to have taffybar export an option on whether to enable it or not... :P
<jomik> Because it was all related to taffybar.

2019-02-09

<jomik> Yeah, no errors in taffybar's logs and it runs "fine"
<infinisil> jomik: So taffybar starts no problem?
<jomik> I have the other taffybar widgets though.

<otini> etu: it's taffybar. I'll file an issue

2019-01-28

<infinisil> jomik: Yeah I built my own taffybar there
<infinisil> jomik: Ah, that's just a wrapper for taffybar, not the taffybar build itself, but the fix should still work I think. Maybe verify that "${pkgs.librsvg.out}/lib/gdk-pixbuf-2.0/2.10.0/loaders.cache" actually exists, these hardcoded version numbers look suspicious
<infinisil> jomik: Where does taffybar override buildCommand?
<jomik> postInstall didn't work, as taffybar overrides buildCommand, so I just modified buildCommand..
<jomik> I was just confused as to why taffybar --version output 3.1.1, when it could not compile properly, but I guess it was because the taffybar bin got updated, but it lost its ghc environment or something..
<jomik> So I guess that it got the new taffybar, but not a new ghcWithPackages wedens ? Makes sense, somehow
<jomik> Hmm, that gives me an error in the taffybar service.
<wedens> this way you'll affect haskell package set only for taffybar
<wedens> jomik you can make it more isolated: `taffybar.override { ghcWithPackages = (unstable.haskellPackages.override { overrides = x: y: { taffybar = unstable.haskell.lib.appendPatch y.taffybar (fetchpatch {}) }; }; ).ghcWithPackages; }`
<jomik> so this in an overlay, yes? taffybar = taffbar.override { ghcWithPackages = unstable.haskellPackages.ghcWithPackages; }
<jomik> wedens: When I check the taffybar version in the taffybar-with-packages path in nix/store, then it says that it is version 3.1.1 though?
<wedens> jomik: you've overwritten haskellPackages, but taffybar (taffybar-with-packages) doesn't use it
<jomik> Atm, when I run `taffybar`, it just errors out because it is unable to find the standard taffybar `System.Taffybar` modules.
<jomik> wedens: Well, I would expect my taffybar environment to be able to find taffybar.. :D
<jomik> I tried navigating to the nix ghc that taffybar creates in taffybar-with-packages. And running `./ghc ~/.config/taffybar/taffybar.hs` only searches for modules in my ~/.config/taffybar dir.. That seems wrong, doesn't it?
<jomik> Ah, results in the exact same taffybar derivation though :D But looks a bit cleaner.
<wedens> maybe `unstableHaskellPackages = unstable.haskellPackages.extend (self0: super0: { taffybar = unstable.haskell.lib.appendPatch super0.haskellPackages.taffybar (pkgs.fetchpatch { .... } });`
<wedens> jomik:` haskellPackages = super.haskellPackages.extend (self0: super0: { taffybar = super.haskell.lib.appendPatch unstable.haskellPackages.taffybar (pkgs.fetchpatch { .... } });`
<jomik> I also get that I can pass `-v` to see the file searched, but, I cannot pass -v to taffybar, IIRC that is a ghc flag.
<jomik> Hey, I overrode Taffybar to get v3.1.1, but now it cannot recompile the configuration. It does not find any of the System.Taffybar modules. Any idea why? I used `taffybar = unstable.haskell.lib.overrideCabal unstable.haskellPackages.taffybar` to apply a patch.
<jomik> Anyone know why I still get the error from this issue https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/16327? I have checked and NO_AT_BRIDGE is set to 1, so I would assume that it would be disabled, yet Taffybar still complains.

2019-01-27

<jomik> I think I'll just give up on Taffybar for now tho xD
<jomik> Hm, so for some reason my taffybar wont recompile anymore. It gives an error when trying to find the modules it needs. This seems to have happened after I overrode my taffybar in haskellPackages, though, it does not make sense to me why :(
<jomik> That is, if I run taffybar from the store, then it works with no error.
<jomik> Anyone know how I can fix this ? I only seem to get this error when running taffybar as a service: `Error retrieving accessibility bus address: org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown: The name org.a11y.Bus was not provided by any .service files`
<jomik> Interesting, it seems to point at taffybar 3.0.0 now for some reason.
<srhb> You either want to patch taffybar to fix the type issue, or youj want to get an older gdkpixbuf (which is what I did)
<srhb> jomik: (That's from whence taffybar's deps come)
<jomik> srhb: I am getting the same exact error, so maybe taffybar isn't seeing the new gdbpixbuf?
<jomik> Well, doesn't seem like I can just make an overlay with taffybar from unstable, even though unstable has the correct taffybar version :(
<jomik> I am just trying to import taffybar from unstable first.
<wedens> another option will be to use `callCabal2Nix "taffybar (fetchFromGithub ...)`
<jomik> What is the easiest way to override a hackage package? Taffybar in nixos is version 3.0.0, but current is 3.1.1
<jomik> So. My remaining issue is that batteryIconNew doesn't show up on the status bar, but that is probably a taffybar issue :D
<jomik> New development. The taffybar service works, but not when started "automatically"
<jomik> wedens: Interesting "advancement", if I manually launch taffybar it gives the same error as the service now :d
<srhb> jomik: I really think I just shrank down most of the taffybar configuration file and used home-manager's services.taffybar.enable
<jomik> srhb: Mind sharing how you got the taffybar service working? :P
<jomik> I quite like taffybars graphs tho
<jomik> taffybar is, yes.
<wedens> you can also try passing `packages` to taffybar derivations and specify icon themes there.
<srhb> The old taffybar 1 really wasn't very objectionable, but the rewrite is completely chaotic.
<srhb> jomik: Taffybar truly is getting weirder and weirder with implicit deps everywhere these days..
<jomik> I can't really see why that'd help tho, afaik I have nothing in my xdg_data_dirs? From what I could see, gtk3 is given to the taffybar package
<jomik> symphorien: But I would expect that the packages that taffybar needs is part of the path that the executable has. That is. I don't have hicolor and adwaita explictly installed - which is what it complains about.
<jomik> Anyone have any idea why my taffybar service does not work, when me executing it manually in a terminal does? I.e. I run `/nix/store/2h6awcmybhsrlcxqvch5fg3zqx1n9gal-taffybar-with-packages-8.4.4/bin/taffybar` in ExecStart, it does not work, but in my terminal, it does.

2019-01-26

<jomik> tilpner: That fixed first thing, so I just have `taffybar-linux-x86_64: Icon 'battery-full-symbolic' not present in theme Adwaita (0)` now
<jomik> Anyone know how I can fix this, it is taffybar giving me an error: `Gtk-WARNING **: 17:40:26.887: Could not find the icon 'battery-full-symbolic'. The 'hicolor' theme was not found either, perhaps you need to install it.`

2019-01-22

<praetorg_> jomik i just attempted to install taffybar and it doesn't pull in hicolor as a dependency
<jomik> Uh, I am running taffybar.
<jomik> This is odd... I updated nixos release 18.09 and now my taffybar keeps crashing due to some dbus issue :o
<jomik> My Taffybar does not work after switching my xmonad config to home.nix from configuration.nix :(
<jomik> clever: I need to do it for `haskellPackages.ghcWithPackages (self: with self; [ xmonad xmonad-contrib xmonad-extras taffybar ]);` tho.

2019-01-17

<jomik> Tho, trying to figure out why my taffybar says that it wants "Data.Text.Internal.Text"
<jomik> sidenote: AWE MAN, taffybar does not build on unstable..
<infinisil> Had some problems with taffybar
<infinisil> still xmonad, just not taffybar, xmobar instead

<jomik> Anyone using xmonad and taffybar here? I am not sure how I can add Taffybar to xmonad. It does not see the module when I compile.. `System.Taffybar.Support.PagerHints`

2018-12-19

<judson> I'm trying to get SNI to work on Taffybar, and it seems like The Way to do that involves a separate service.

2018-12-18

<judson> Does anyone use taffybar?

2018-12-05

<ottidmes> porrifolius: but a relationship like if upower is enabled is often only established via services, and I dont believe taffybar is installed that way, you could of course make one
<porrifolius> ottidmes: So in this case maybe the icons are only needed if both taffybar and upower are installed.
<ottidmes> porrifolius: could be, could also be that your particular configuration of taffybar required it and made it fail, or is it always used by taffybar, in that case it would indeed be a bug in the dependencies
<porrifolius> I had to manually add gnome3-adaita-icon-theme in order to get taffybar working after having already added taffybar and haskellPackages.taffybar.

2018-12-04

<pi3r__> This is a kind of specific ... I am compiling `Taffybar` with ghc-8.2.2 (because of a ghc-8.4.x bug). Everything works as expected using this extra commit https://github.com/PierreR/taffybar/commit/0015b8f040a29f5db558585e9623bb409ada476e.

<infandum> I'm a haskell user. I normally use stack. I want to make a configuration.nix that basically makes my entire setup. I want to have taffybar installed, but my configuration uses other haskell libraries as well. I'm a bit confused on how to tell nixos to install taffybar with additional libraries that it can see. How can I do this? I found a few places online that hint at this, but they are very confusingly explained.

<srhb> manveru: I have weird issues like taffybar not being able to start with home-manager because of a race condition.

<elvishjerricco> Taffybar is just doing nothing at all... I'm so confused
<elvishjerricco> This is with the example config from the taffybar repo: https://www.irccloud.com/pastebin/j3QAmlAU/
<elvishjerricco> Hm. Finally managed to compile taffybar 2.1 on NixOS 18.03. But it just doesn't do anything when I run it :/ Any ideas?

<srhb> Hmm. I upgraded taffybar to 2.x from 18.03 to unstable, but now I have almost(?) no systray icons. Like, vlc has one for instance, but nm-applet is gone even though it's running. I have a feeling this has something to do with a newer standard (SNI?) but how do I get the old ones back?

2018-06-09

<srhb> Er, has anyone actually gotten the new taffybar 2 sniTrayNew to display anything?

<jcb_> I can successfully build taffybar-1.0.1 with stack, but I would prefer to directly manage this package in configuration.nix
<jcb_> the taffybar on nixos-unstable is still version 1.0.0, which is broken due to a dependency issue in gtk-traymanager-1.0.0
<jcb_> Hi, I am trying to build taffybar-1.0.1 and have run into this issue: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/38531. I am wondering how often hackage-packages caches are updated on the nix servers?

<judson> But as is, taffybar is broken in master.
<judson> I want taffybar 1.0 though ;) I've been waiting for a long time for it to get into hackage, infinisil.
<infinisil> judson: I mean if you wanna get taffybar working as fast as possible you can just use an older nixpkgs version
<judson> Anyway, issue created for taffybar :(
<judson> I can't seem to get the taffybar in master to install.
<judson> Hm. taffybar already has gtk3 in its `executableHaskellDepends` attr. Is that not enough?
<judson> Continuing my odyssey to figure out which version of Taffybar I have installed - why does my search for the actual executable go through the GHC package?
<judson> If, say, taffybar doesn't have a version flag?

<saksham> clever: Here's taffybar: http://github.com/travitch/taffybar . Meanwhile, I'm modifying this file to use github sources.
<clever> saksham: what us the url for taffybar's src?
<saksham> It's taffybar. I've pasted the shell file I'm using (^) above. I modified the output of cabal2nix in my attempts to make it work.

<bind> taffybar .. with built in tray nice :D
<averell> i use taffybar for systray and stuff, but i don't think it's very popular

<rycee> srhb: What about `Oct 15 11:42:23 beta systemd[1468]: Started Taffybar desktop bar.`?
<rycee> srhb: At least something like this should show up for you: Oct 15 11:42:23 beta taffybar[1551]: Launching custom binary /home/rycee/.cache/taffybar/taffybar-linux-x86_64
<srhb> (As in, nothing in journalctl --user-unit=taffybar)
<rycee> srhb: Glad it worked out for you. I do indeed use the taffybar module, it is quite simple. In particular it doesn't do anything about configurations so anybody using it would have to create the `.config/taffybar/taffybar.hs` file themselves.
<srhb> rycee: Are you using the taffybar module in home-manager? I only see your name in the commit log for the file. The unit simply fails for me with no log output.
<srhb> Is anyone using taffybar with home-manager? I just get a blank bar. Am I supposed to inject my configuration elsewhere?

<srhb> Camdar: (I launch taffybar from .xsession, same deal, with no issues)

<abbradar> also XFCE is nice. I actually have XFCE with "frontend" gutted and replaced with xmonad+taffybar

<Ankhers> Would anyone be able to tell me how to run an arbitrary program on startup / login? I'm using XMonad and want taffybar to start automatically.
<Ankhers> I am trying to use XMonad with Taffybar on NixOS. XMonad starts perfectly fine upon logging into the system. However, Taffybar does not start. https://gist.github.com/ankhers/9102bca5ce154125f7b83f7701db7411 is what I have to install XMonad and Taffybar. Is this correct, or am I installing taffybar incorrectly?
