Hi, I again need your advice. The situation is, I have two machines running awesome and I want to externalize every machine-specific part of my rc.lua so I just have to sync my rc.lua upon changes and do not have to adapt it.
Part of this plan is that both computers shall use a different set of widgets (e. g. I don't need a battery widget on a stationary system). mspec is the file with the machine-specific parts of code, the widgets itself are working well and are created inside the mspec-Methods. At the moment, my wibox is constructed like this: --variant 1: mywibox[s].widgets = { { --launcher, taglist, promptbox }, mylayoutbox[s], mytextclock, --MyWidgets mspec.volwidget(), --Volwidget mspec.netwidget(), --Netwidget mspec.memtxtw(), --Memory-Widget mspec.cputxtw(), --CPU-Widget --EndMyWidgets s == 1 and mysystray or nil, mytasklist[s], layout = awful.widget.layout.horizontal.rightleft } My idea was that I want to get an array of widgets by calling mspec.getWidgets() --returns { volwidget , memorywidget , cpuwidget } and cycle over this array and insert these widgets into my wibox. I tried: --variant 2: wid = mspec.getWidgets() mywibox[s].widgets = { { --launcher, taglist, promptbox }, mylayoutbox[s], mytextclock, --MyWidgets wid, --EndMyWidgets s == 1 and mysystray or nil, mytasklist[s], layout = awful.widget.layout.horizontal.rightleft } The problem with variant 2 is that the widgets aren't placed where the widgets were placed in variant 1, between mytextclock and mytasklist, but between the first array with the taglist and the promptbox and the tasklist. Does anyone have an idea how I could implement this intelligently (preferred by using "mspec.getWidgets()" and its array)? A for-loop to cycle over the array does not work inside an array, of course.
