dde-istate-menus

IStat menus on macOS alternative for DDE.

This software has nothing to do with the Istat menu excepting adopting its UI design

The main part of the system monitoring code in utils comes from deepin-system-monitor

• dock widgets' text are really small even the widget has enough space, or text is too large and only part is shown on the widget. I think it is related to the dde-dock issue

Arch

Thanks to @JunioCalu . It is on AUR now: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/dde-istate-menus/

Other distributions

It needs to be built from source on your own.

git clone https://github.com/SeptemberHX/dde-istate-menus.git
cd dde-istate-menus
cd nethogs
make libnethogs
cd ..
mkdir build
cd build
cmake ..
make

For sensors ability

1. Sensors are based on lm-sensors and msr
2. make sure run sensors-detect and give the right permission with setcap
3. make sure run modprobe msr

How to disable some sub-plugins ?

It supports enable/disable sub-plugins by configuration file. Just make a new file names ~/.config/dde-istate-menus/dde-istate-menus.conf with contents below:

[plugins]
cpu=true
datetime=true
sensors=true
ram=true
network=true
disk=true

Disable any sub-plugins by changing true to false, then restart dde-dock or dde-top-panel
