Module: wibox.widget.imagebox

A widget to display an image.

The wibox.widget.imagebox is part of the Awesome WM's widget system (see 03-declarative-layout.md).

This widget displays an image. The image can be a file, a cairo image surface, or an rsvg handle object (see the image property).

Examples using a wibox.widget.imagebox:

local my_imagebox = wibox.widget.imagebox(beautiful.awesome_icon, false)

Alternatively, you can declare the imagebox widget using the declarative pattern (both variants are strictly equivalent):

local my_imagebox = wibox.widget {
    image  = beautiful.awesome_icon,
    resize = false,
    widget = wibox.widget.imagebox
}

Any additional arguments will be passed to the clip shape function.

Parameters:

Name Type(s) Description
image Optional image The image to display (may be nil).
resize_allowed Optional boolean If false, the image will be clipped, else it will be resized to fit into the available space.
clip_shape Optional function A gears.shape compatible function.

Returns:

    wibox.widget.imagebox A new wibox.widget.imagebox widget instance.

Functions

🔗 imagebox._get_stylesheet (self, content_or_path)
Support both CSS data and filepath for the stylsheet.

Parameters:

Name Type(s) Description
self
content_or_path

Depending on which tool was used to create the .svg, this may do nothing at all. However, for example, if the .svg uses <text> elements and doesn't have an hardcoded stylesheet, the result will differ.

Emit signals:
🔗 scaling_quality string · 1 signal
Set the scaling aligorithm.

Depending on how the image is used, what is the "correct" way to scale can change. For example, upscaling a pixel art image should not make it blurry. However, scaling up a photo should not make it blocky.

Value Description
fastA high-performance filter
goodA reasonable-performance filter
bestThe highest-quality available
nearestNearest-neighbor filtering (blocky)

The image used in the example below has a resolution of 32x22 and is intentionally blocky to highlight the difference. It is zoomed by a factor of 3.

Constraints:

Default value : "good"
Valid values:
"fast" : A high-performance filter.
"good" : A reasonable-performance filter.
"best" : The highest-quality available.
"nearest" : Nearest-neighbor filtering (blocky).

See also:

wibox.widget.base.all_children
🔗 all_children table · Inherited from wibox.widget.base
Get all direct and indirect children widgets. This will scan all containers recursively to find widgets Warning: This method it prone to stack overflow if there is a loop in the widgets hierarchy. A hierarchy loop is when a widget, or any of its children, contain (directly or indirectly) itself.

Constraints:

See also:

awful.button Create easily new buttons objects ignoring certain modifiers. module

Object methods

🔗 :add_button (button) · Inherited from wibox.widget.base
Add a new awful.button to this widget.

Parameters:

Name Type(s) Description
button awful.button The button to add.
🔗 :emit_signal_recursive (signal_name, ...) · Inherited from wibox.widget.base

Emit a signal and ensure all parent widgets in the hierarchies also forward the signal.

This is useful to track signals when there is a dynamic set of containers and layouts wrapping the widget.

Note that this function has some flaws:

  1. The signal is only forwarded once the widget tree has been built. This happens after all currently scheduled functions have been executed. Therefore, it will not start to work right away.
  2. In case the widget is present multiple times in a single widget tree, this function will also forward the signal multiple times (once per upward tree path).
  3. If the widget is removed from the widget tree, the signal is still forwarded for some time, similar to the first case.

Parameters:

Name Type(s) Description
signal_name string
... Other arguments
🔗 :index (widget, recursive, ...) -> (number, widget, table) · Inherited from wibox.widget.base
Get the index of a widget.

Parameters:

Name Type(s) Description
widget widget The widget to look for.
recursive Optional boolean Recursively check accross the sub-widgets hierarchy.
... Optional widget Additional widgets to add at the end of the sub-widgets hierarchy "path".

Returns:

  1. number The widget index.
  2. widget The parent widget.
  3. table The hierarchy path between "self" and "widget".
🔗 :connect_signal (name, func) · Inherited from gears.object

Connect to a signal.

Usage example output:

In slot [obj]   nil nil nil
In slot [obj]   foo bar 42

Parameters:

Name Type(s) Description
name string The name of the signal.
func function The callback to call when the signal is emitted.

Usage:

    local o = gears.object{}
-- Function can be attached to signals
local function slot(obj, a, b, c)
    print("In slot", obj, a, b, c)
end
o:connect_signal("my_signal", slot)
-- Emitting can be done without arguments. In that case, the object will be
-- implicitly added as an argument.
o:emit_signal "my_signal"
-- It is also possible to add as many random arguments are required.
o:emit_signal("my_signal", "foo", "bar", 42)
-- Finally, to allow the object to be garbage collected (the memory freed), it
-- is necessary to disconnect the signal or use weak_connect_signal
o:disconnect_signal("my_signal", slot)
-- This time, the slot wont be called as it is no longer connected.
o:emit_signal "my_signal"
🔗 :weak_connect_signal (name, func) · Inherited from gears.object
Connect to a signal weakly.

This allows the callback function to be garbage collected and automatically disconnects the signal when that happens. Warning: Only use this function if you really, really, really know what you are doing.

Parameters:

Name Type(s) Description
name string The name of the signal.
func function The callback to call when the signal is emitted.
🔗 :disconnect_signal (name, func) · Inherited from gears.object
Disconnect from a signal.

Parameters:

Name Type(s) Description
name string The name of the signal.
func function The callback that should be disconnected.
🔗 :emit_signal (name, ...) · Inherited from gears.object
Emit a signal.

Parameters:

Name Type(s) Description
name string The name of the signal
... Extra arguments for the callback functions. Each connected function receives the object as first argument and then any extra arguments that are given to emit_signal()

Signals

🔗 widget::layout_changed · Inherited from wibox.widget.base
When the layout (size) change. This signal is emitted when the previous results of :layout() and :fit() are no longer valid. Unless this signal is emitted, :layout() and :fit() must return the same result when called with the same arguments.

🔗 widget::redraw_needed · Inherited from wibox.widget.base
