posh2k VS yasb

Shiny and extensible prompt with oh-my-posh and Posh2K

git clone https://github.com/2kabhishek/Posh2K cd Posh2K # for Powershell, add this to $Profile oh-my-posh init pwsh --config ~/PATH_TO_DIR/Posh2K/pos2k.json | Invoke-Expression # for Zsh, add this to ~/.zshrc eval "$(oh-my-posh init zsh --config ~/PATH_TO_DIR/Posh2K/pos2k.json)" # for Bash, add this to ~/.bashrc eval "$(oh-my-posh init bash --config ~/PATH_TO_DIR/Posh2K/pos2k.json)" # for Fish, add this to ~/config/fish/config.fish oh-my-posh init fish --config ~/PATH_TO_DIR/Posh2K/pos2k.json | source # for nu shell, run oh-my-posh init nu --config ~/PATH_TO_DIR/Posh2K/pos2k.json source ~/oh-my-posh.nu # for cmd, install Clink, then add this load(io.popen('oh-my-posh init cmd --config ~/PATH_TO_DIR/Posh2K/pos2k.json'):read("*a"))()

What an absolute mess. In the meantime I'm glad to have seen alternatives like yasb[1] popping up.

You can use yasb to show a status bar, similar to polybar. Follow instructions on yasb to set up.

I used yasb : https://github.com/denBot/yasb

I develop and maintain a twm for Windows and one of the things that I implemented after many requests was a subscription service to allow other applications to listen to and respond to events emitted by the window manager. This allowed people to make stuff like status bars that integrate with and respond to the window manager's state changes.

A push-based event subscription API that allows other applications to subscribe to the latest komorebi events. This is in particular super useful if you want to write your own statusbar. yasb is a great example of a status bar written in Python that subscribes to the latest events from komorebi to always show the most up-to-date information about workspaces and application windows to the user.
