org_clocking_task

A simple module for py3status that displays the currently clocked in task from org-mode.

Requirements

• Python 3 (tested in 3.6 and 3.7)
• py3status
• emacs
• org-mode

An instance of emacs must be open with the emacs server running. (The emacs server can be started using M-x server-start).

Example

The default display looks like this:

The preceding "Current task: " can be changed as shown below using the format parameter. In py3status config:

order += "org_clocking_task"

org_clocking_task {
  color = "#00CCFF"
  format = "Working on: "
}

When no task is being clocked, the display will be "Current task: None".

Click events

You can right click on the status bar to pause the current clock - org-mode will clock you out of the task, and the status bar will display 'PAUSED'. You can then left click on the status bar to re-clock the most recently clocking task.
