Custom modules

To add a custom module you need to create them in ~/.config/bdwmb/modules directory.

Proper way of creating a module:

We will create a module called "test" in this semi tutorial with a type of shellscript

1. go into your ~/.config/bdwmb/modules directory:

cd ~/.config/bdwmb/modules

2. make a new module:

vim test

3. add a shbang to the file:

#!/bin/sh

4. write the main function:

btest() {
}

5. in the function, let's greet the user:

printf 'welcome, %s' "$USER"

6. add the module to our modules in our ~/.config/bdwmb/config.sh:

export MODULES=('test')

7. done, here's our final source code:

~/.config/bdwmb/modules/test

#!/bin/sh

btest() {
    printf 'welcome, %s' "$USER"
}
