Polybar Script for checking twitch online status

This is a simple bash-script for polybar that checks if a certain twitch-streamer (or multiple) is streaming right now.

It only works with one active streamer at a time, although if you want you can set the priority (aka: which one of those will be shown) by adding that name to the end of the users-array.

dependencies:

• twitch-stream-check

usage/installation:

• download twitch.sh
• place the script file in “.config/polybar”
• change the “users”-array to match the usernames that you want to be monitored
• add script to polybar as custom module:

[module/twitch]
type = custom/script
exec = /home/host13/.config/polybar/twitch.sh
format-prefix = 
format-prefix-padding = 1
tail = true

• add module to bar by putting “twitch” in either modules-left, modules-center or modules-right
• enjoy
