i have added the qtile widget for updates in my bar and i have been reading the qtile documentation but the update interval wont refresh or the colors wont change in my bar
widget.Pacman(
update_interval = 60,
custom_command = ‘checkupdates | wc -l’,
colour_have_updates="#f54029",
colour_no_updates="#ffffff",
),
Does that custom command work in a terminal or does it produce an error message?
Maybe the pacman-contrib package is not installed and you can’t run the checkupdates command.
yes it works no errors just trying to figure out the update interval problem and why its not changing colors or even hide so when there is a update it pops up red
i think i have pacman-contrib or pacache commands wouldnt work, il go check.
