i3lock - improved screen locker
This is just a re-patched version of i3lock with the commits from i3lock-color; all the credit for the color functionality goes to eBrnd !
i3lock is a simple screen locker like slock. After starting it, you will see a white screen (you can configure the color/an image). You can return to your screen by entering your password.
Many little improvements have been made to i3lock over time:
-
i3lock forks, so you can combine it with an alias to suspend to RAM (run "i3lock && echo mem > /sys/power/state" to get a locked screen after waking up your computer from suspend to RAM)
-
You can specify either a background color or a PNG image which will be displayed while your screen is locked.
- You can also specify additional color options with the following command-line options:
--insidevercolor=rrggbbaa
-- Inside of the circle while the password is being verified--insidewrongcolor=rrggbbaa
-- Inside of the circle when a wrong password was entered--insidecolor=rrggbbaa
-- Inside of the circle while typing/idle--ringvercolor=rrggbbaa
-- Outer ring while the password is being verified--ringwrongcolor=rrggbbaa
-- Outer ring when a wrong password was entered--ringcolor=rrggbbaa
-- Outer ring while typing/idle--linecolor=rrggbbaa
-- Line separating outer ring from inside of the circle--separatorcolor=rrggbbaa
-- Lines delimiting the highlight segments--textcolor=rrggbbaa
-- Text ("verifying", "wrong!")--keyhlcolor=rrggbbaa
-- Keypress highlight segments--bshlcolor=rrggbbaa
-- Backspace highlight segments--line-uses-ring
,-r
-- the line between the inside and outer ring uses the ring color for its color--line-uses-inside
,-s
-- the line between the inside and outer ring uses the inside color for its color
- The following additional options have been added:
-S, --screen
-- specifies which display to draw the unlock indicator on-k, --clock
-- enables the clock display.--indicator
-- forces the indicator to always show, even if there's no activity.--no-composite
-- disables checking for compositors and trying to grab the compositor window, since that causes issues with some compositors.- NOTE: This can potentially allow sensitive information to display over the screen locker, so take care when you use this option.
-B=sigma, --blur
-- enables Gaussian blur. Sigma is the blur radius.- Note: You can still composite images over the blur (but still under the indicator) with -i.
- Eventually there might be an
imagepos
arg, similar totime
anddatepos
.
- Note: You can still composite images over the blur (but still under the indicator) with -i.
- Eventually there might be an
--timestr="%H:%M:%S"
-- allows custom overriding of the time format string. Acceptsstrftime
formatting. Default is"%H:%M:%S"
.--timepos="ix:iy-20"
-- position of the time. Expressions using the variables x (current screen's x value), y (current screen's y value), w (screen width), h (screen height), ix (indicator x position), iy (indicator y position) cw (clock width), and ch (clock height) can be used..--timecolor=rrggbbaa
-- color of the time string--timefont="sans-serif"
-- font used for the time display--timesize=32
-- font size for the time display--datestr="%A, %m %Y"
-- allows custom overriding of the date format string. Acceptsstrftime
formatting. Default is"%A, %m %Y"
.--datepos="ix:iy-20"
-- position of the date. All the variables intimepos
can be used here, as well as the additional values tx (time x) and ty (time y).--datecolor=rrggbbaa
-- color of the date string--datefont="sans-serif"
-- font used for the date display--datesize=14
-- font size for the date display- `--veriftext="verifying…" -- text to be shown while verifying
- `--wrongtext="wrong!" -- text to be shown upon an incorrect password being entered
--textsize=28
-- font size for the status text--modsize=14
-- font size for the modifier keys listing--radius=90
-- the radius of the circle indicator
- You can also specify additional color options with the following command-line options:
-
You can specify whether i3lock should bell upon a wrong password.
-
i3lock uses PAM and therefore is compatible with LDAP etc. On OpenBSD i3lock uses the bsd_auth(3) framework.

Aur Package
https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/i3lock-color-git
Running i3lock
Simply invoke the 'i3lock' command. To get out of it, enter your password and press enter.
A sample script is included in this repository. Here is a short clip of that script in action!
On OpenBSD the i3lock
binary needs to be setgid auth
to call the
authentication helpers, e.g. /usr/libexec/auth/login_passwd
.
