SpaceAPI-GTK

A panel Applet using GTK2 for showing the Status of a Hackerspace. Compatible with the SpaceAPI version 0.13.

Original source: https://github.com/ccchh/dooris-gtk (I moved to $HOME from $CCCHH… ;))

Installation:

Requirements:

• Standard tools like gcc, pkg-config etc.
• curl
• gtk+-2.0
• json-c
• libnotify - Only needed when compiling with libnotify support.

Use the following command for getting the sources:

git clone https://git.unixpeople.org/hanez/spaceapi-gtk.git

Change into the new directory:

cd spaceapi-gtk

To compile the sources just run:

make

This will compile dooris with libnotify support.

If you don’t want notifications run the following command:

make nonotify

Installation

Just copy “spaceapi-gtk” to a folder in your $PATH. I do:

cp ./spaceapi-gtk ~/bin/

You can copy the file to /usr/bin to make it available to all users but I don’t. If you want that just run:

sudo cp ./spaceapi-gtk /usr/bin/

Configuration:

Configuration needs to be done before compiling. There are some parameters you can set in the head of the spaceapi-gtk.c file where variables are declared. A configuration file will at this point make no sense.

Usage:

Run spaceapi-gtk with:

./spaceapi-gtk & 

Or if in your $PATH:

spaceapi-gtk

Status Icon “Pesthörnchen” colors:

• Red = Door closed
• Yellow = Door open
