power-menu is a minimalistic power menu app for simple integratation with most of Linux distro

Installation

When downloaded, this app should be installed by hand. For this, do the following:

  • To use it with terminal:
    • Check your
      $PATH
      directories and pick any of them. I recommend to use ones that are available for your default
      $USER
    • Copy
      power-menu.py
      inside the selected directory and make it executable
    • Restart your terminal instance or use
      source
      command on your rc file. Now you can use the command
  • To use it with rofi or other app menu:
    • Copy
      power-menu.Desktop
      to
      $HOME/.local/share/applications
      . If application doesn't appear in your app menu, reload DE or WM
  • To create a button/widget for a menu bar:
  • To use it with shortcuts:
    • As for previous one, it depends on your DE/WM or shortcut daemon (like sxhkd). For Qtile: https://docs.qtile.org/en/latest/manual/config/keys.html
    • Don't forget, that (if you realized the instruction for terminal) power-menu.py can be executed as an ordinary Linux command, so there is no need to give an entire path for it

N.B.: I added two icons (in SVG and PNG format) that I used for my installation. Source: https://uxwing.com/
