General usage
-------------
2013-09-07 12:41:20 +02:00
Every widget is output by a `function`.
2013-09-10 23:40:31 +02:00
For some widgets, `function` returns a `wibox.widget.textbox`, for others a table to be used for notification and update purposes.

Every widget may take either a table or a list of variables as argument.
2013-09-10 22:19:34 +02:00
If it takes a table, you have to define a function variable called `settings` in it, in order to make your customizations.

2013-09-10 22:19:34 +02:00
To markup the textbox, call `widget:set_markup(...)` within `settings`.
You can feed `set_markup` with predefined arguments, see the sections for all the details.
2013-09-11 19:54:18 +02:00
`widget` is a textbox, so you can threat it like any other `wibox.widget.textbox`.

Here follows an example:
2013-09-10 21:56:10 +02:00
mycpu = lain.widgets.cpu({
timeout = 4,
settings = function()
2013-09-13 00:27:04 +02:00
widget:set_markup("Cpu " .. cpu_now.usage)
2013-09-10 21:56:10 +02:00
end
})
