Summary ↑

Ruby bindings for libappindicator used by Ubuntu's Application Indicators released under the LGPLv3 license

Versioning ↑

Now that libappindicator has been renamed into libappindicator1 and that libappindicator3 is available, the upstream versioning scheme is clear and we use the corresponding naming:

  • ruby-libappindicator (v1 branch) → libappindicator1

  • ruby-libappindicator3 (v3 branch) → libappindicator3

This gem uses the same version numbering than libappindicator itself like that:

  • libappindicator-x.y → ruby-libappindicator-x.y.z

The z number reflects changes internal to the gem, not upstream ones.

libappindicator3 ↑

libappindicator3 is linked to gtk+3 which does not have an official ruby binding at the moment. As a consequence, ruby-libappindicator3 is not available at the moment. Use libappindicator1 instead as both versions can be used in parallel on the same system.

Installation ↑

For installing the gem, make sure you have all the required packages available, which are:

  • libgtk2.0-dev

  • libappindicator-dev

Minimal “hello world” ↑ 

require "rubygems"
require "ruby-libappindicator"

ai = AppIndicator::AppIndicator.new("test", "indicator-messages", AppIndicator::Category::APPLICATION_STATUS);

ai.set_menu(Gtk::Menu.new)
ai.set_status(AppIndicator::Status::ACTIVE)

Gtk.main

The two necessary steps to make your application indicator visible are:

  • setting a menu (even empty, but you need one)

  • setting the status as active or requiring attention
