Calendar widget for Awesome WM - slightly improved version of the wibox.widget.calendar.

  • themes:

    Name Screenshot
    nord (default) nord_theme
    outrun outrun_theme
    light outrun_theme
    dark outrun_theme
    naughty (default) from local theme
  • setup widget placement

top center - in case you clock is centered:

calendar_top

top right - for default awesome config:

calendar_top_right

bottom right - in case your wibar at the bottom:

calendar_bottom_right

How to use

This widget needs an 'anchor' - another widget which triggers visibility of the calendar. Default mytextclock is the perfect candidate!
Just after mytextclock is instantiated, create the widget and add the mouse listener to it.

local calendar_widget = require("awesome-wm-widgets.calendar-widget.calendar")
-- ...
-- Create a textclock widget
mytextclock = wibox.widget.textclock()
-- default
local cw = calendar_widget()
-- or customized
local cw = calendar_widget({
    theme = 'outrun',
    placement = 'bottom_right'
    radius = 8
})
mytextclock:connect_signal("button::press", 
    function(_, _, _, button)
        if button == 1 then cw.toggle() end
    end)
