Customizable

By default the statusbar contains: cpu usage, memory usage, temperature, disk usage, volume and datetime
For a custom configuration put this file config.toml in your ~/.config/ztatusbar/config.toml and edit it to change values or delete a component.
Some configuration example in config.toml:

[memory]
time = 1000  # Time in miliseconds defines how often the process runs
name = "RAM" # Name of the component. Could be empty => name = ""
icon = ""   # Icon of the component. Could be empty => icon = ""

[disk]
time = 2000
name = "DISK"
icon = "󰋊 "
unit = "/"

[volume]
time = 100
name = "VOL"
icon = " " 
icon_muted = "󰖁 "

[temperature]
time = 1000
name = "TEMP"
icon = "󰏈 " 
zone = 1    # thermal zone which has the temperature in /sys/class/thermal_zone{variable here}/temp. If not set it uses thermal_zone0/temp
