Updates

This module provides information about available updates for the system.

To configure this module, you need to specify a command that
will check for new system updates and a command that will launch the system updates.

info

Without this configuration, the module will not appear in the status bar.

The check command should return a list of updates,
one package per line in the following format:

package_name version_from -> version_to

Output Example​

calf 0.90.7-1 -> 0.90.8-1
hyprutils 0.8.0-1 -> 0.8.1-1
lazygit 0.52.0-1 -> 0.53.0-1

Example​

In this example, I am using an Arch Linux distribution, with paru as my AUR package manager and alacritty as a terminal emulator.

[updates]
check_cmd = "checkupdates; paru -Qua"
update_cmd = 'alacritty -e bash -c "paru; echo Done - Press enter to exit; read" &'
