# fluxo-rs
fluxo-rs is a high-performance system metrics daemon and client designed specifically for waybar. It replaces standard shell scripts with a compiled rust binary that collects data via a background polling loop and serves it over a unix domain socket (`/tmp/fluxo.sock`).
fluxo-rs is a high-performance system metrics daemon and client designed specifically for Waybar. It replaces standard shell scripts with a compiled Rust binary that collects data via a background polling loop and serves it over a Unix socket.
## Description
## Key Features
The project follows a client-server architecture:
- **Daemon**: Handles heavy lifting (polling cpu, memory, network, gpu) and stores state in memory.
- **Client**: A thin cli wrapper that connects to the daemon's socket to retrieve formatted json for waybar.
This approach eliminates process spawning overhead and temporary file locking, resulting in near-zero cpu usage for custom modules.
## Features
- **Ultra-lightweight**: Background polling is highly optimized (e.g., O(1) process counting).
- **Jitter-free**: Uses zero-width sentinels and figure spaces to prevent waybar from trimming padding.
- **Configurable**: Fully customizable output formats via toml config.
- **Interactive Menus**: Integrated support for selecting items (like Bluetooth devices) via external menus (e.g., Rofi, Wofi, Fuzzel).
- **Live Reload**: Configuration can be reloaded without restarting the daemon.
- **Multi-vendor GPU**: Native support for intel (igpu), amd, and nvidia.
- **Asynchronous Architecture**: Built on **Tokio**, the daemon handles concurrent IPC requests and background tasks with zero latency and minimal CPU overhead.
- **Native Library Integrations**:
- **Audio**: Direct `libpulse` integration for event-driven, instant volume and device updates.
- **Bluetooth**: Native `bluer` integration for robust device monitoring.
- **Pixel Buds Pro**: Custom native RPC implementation for real-time battery and ANC control.
- **Network**: Native `nix` and `/proc` inspection for high-speed interface monitoring.
- **Hyprland**: Direct IPC Unix socket communication for gamemode and animation status.
- **Circuit Breaker (Failsafe)**: Automatically detects failing modules and enters a "Cool down" state to prevent resource waste and log spam.
- **Multi-threaded Polling**: Decoupled subsystem threads ensure that a hang in one system (e.g., a slow GPU probe) never freezes your entire bar.

## Setup
1. Build the project:
```bash
cd fluxo-rs
cargo build --release
```
1. **Build**: `cargo build --release`
2. **Configure**: Create `~/.config/fluxo/config.toml` (see `example.config.toml`).
3. **Daemon**: Start `fluxo-rs daemon`. It's recommended to run this as a systemd user service.
2. Start the daemon:
```bash
# Starts the daemon using the default config path (~/.config/fluxo/config.toml)
./target/release/fluxo-rs daemon &
# Or provide a custom path
./target/release/fluxo-rs daemon --config /path/to/your/config.toml &
```
## Waybar Configuration
3. Configuration:
Create `~/.config/fluxo/config.toml` (see `example.config.toml` for all default options).
To achieve zero-latency updates, use **Waybar Signals**:
4. Waybar configuration (`config.jsonc`):
```json
"custom/cpu": {
"exec": "~/path/to/fluxo-rs cpu",
"return-type": "json"
}
```
## Development
### Architecture
- `src/main.rs`: Entry point, CLI parsing, interactive GUI spawns (menus), and client-side formatting logic.
- `src/daemon.rs`: UDS listener, configuration management, and polling orchestration.
- `src/ipc.rs`: Unix domain socket communication logic.
- `src/utils.rs`: Generic GUI utilities (like the menu spawner).
- `src/modules/`: Individual metric implementations.
- `src/state.rs`: Shared thread-safe data structures.
### Adding a Module
1. Add the required config block to `src/config.rs`.
2. Add the required state fields to `src/state.rs`.
3. Implement the `WaybarModule` trait in a new file in `src/modules/`.
4. Add polling logic to `src/modules/hardware.rs` or `src/daemon.rs`.
5. Register the new subcommand in `src/main.rs` and the router in `src/daemon.rs`.
### Configuration Reload
The daemon can reload its configuration live:
```bash
fluxo-rs reload
```jsonc
"custom/audio": {
"exec": "fluxo vol",
"return-type": "json",
"interval": 5,
"signal": 8,
"on-click": "fluxo audio cycle sink && pkill -RTMIN+8 waybar"
},
"custom/bluetooth": {
"exec": "fluxo bt",
"return-type": "json",
"interval": 5,
"signal": 9,
"on-click": "fluxo bt menu && pkill -RTMIN+9 waybar",
"on-click-right": "fluxo bt cycle_mode && pkill -RTMIN+9 waybar"
}
```
### Logging & Debugging
`fluxo-rs` uses the `tracing` ecosystem. If a module isn't behaving properly or your configuration isn't applying, start the daemon with debug logging enabled in the foreground:
## Debugging
Start the daemon with `RUST_LOG=debug` to see detailed logs of library interactions and circuit breaker status:
```bash
RUST_LOG=debug fluxo-rs daemon
```
This will print verbose information regarding config parsing errors, subprocess failures, and IPC requests.
