# polybar-cryptocurrency

A polybar script much like [polybar-crypto](https://github.com/willHol/polybar-crypto).
|
|
It's a great script, but:
|
|
* I dislike messing with configuration files for small scripts
|
|
* I feel as if changing what the module displays should be quick
|
|
* [Coinranking's API](https://docs.coinranking.com/public) is much better than CMC, in my opinion (currency symbols)
|
|
* [Guarda's icons](https://github.com/guardaco/crypto-icons) are recent and look really nice, and it's fun to be able to fetch them quickly
|
|
|
|
## Setup
|
|
```
|
|
git clone https://github.com/plinki/polybar-cryptocurrency.git
|
|
|
|
cd polybar-cryptocurrency && ./setup.sh
|
|
```
|
|
__or__ copy coins.otf to ~/.fonts, and coins.svg & pcrypto.py to ~/.config/polybar
|
|
|
|
### Module
|
|
Add to your polybar config:
|
|
```
|
|
[bar/my-left]
|
|
modules-right = crypto
|
|
|
|
[module/crypto]
|
|
type = custom/script
|
|
exec = ~/.config/polybar/pcrypto.py --base USD --coins btc eth link ltc xrp xmr
|

|
|
|
font-0 = "coins:style=Regular;0"
|
|
```
|

### Icons
|
|
Icons are fetched from coins.svg, if you'd like to use your own icon for a specific coin, just replace the unicode with the icon
|
|
```
|
|
:btc

more options in `pcrypto.py -h`
