polybar-git does not create a config dir about i3wm-themer

[stav121]

Well generally, you either read the first paragraph of the Polybar documentation or you just touch ~/.config/polybar/config and then run the script. I was thinking if I should force-create the config via the script (check if it's there and if not I create it no matter what) but I need to kinda test it for a while.

I did

install -Dm644 /usr/share/doc/polybar/config $HOME/.config/polybar/config
followed by
polybar example

to set a good base config

[tokamak-git]

command I run:

install -Dm644 /usr/share/doc/polybar/config $HOME/.config/polybar/config

the error message:

install: failed to access '/home/coderiot/.config/polybar/config': Not a directory

Im running Arch Linux

Just create it man.

mkdir ~/.config/polybar/config

[tokamak-git]

I did, got it to work. Going through the examples now.

polybar can be found on official pacman repo. You don't need to use AUR aymore.

That's something I didn't even know to be honest. I will consider pulling it from there in that case. Thanks for the info :)

I am closing this one once there is no follow up. Generally if you follow the instructions for the official Polybar page then no problems should exist: https://github.com/jaagr/polybar
