# polybar-msg
|
||
|
|
||
|
> Control `polybar` using inter-process-messaging (IPC).
|
||
|
> Note: IPC is disabled by default and can be enabled by setting `enable-ipc = true` in the Polybar config.
|
||
|
> More information: <https://polybar.rtfd.io/en/stable/user/ipc.html>.
|
||
|
|
||
|
- Quit the bar:
|
||
|
|
||
|
`polybar-msg cmd quit`
|
||
|
|
||
|
- Restart the bar in-place:
|
||
|
|
||
|
`polybar-msg cmd restart`
|
||
|
|
||
|
- Hide the bar (does nothing if the bar is already hidden):
|
||
|
|
||
|
`polybar-msg cmd hide`
|
||
|
|
||
|
- Show the bar again (does nothing if the bar is not hidden):
|
||
|
|
||
|
`polybar-msg cmd show`
|
||
|
|
||
|
- Toggle between hidden/visible:
|
||
|
|
||
|
`polybar-msg cmd toggle`
|
||
|
|
||
|
- Execute a module action (the data string is optional):
|
||
|
|
||
|
`polybar-msg action "#{{module_name}}.{{action_name}}.{{data_string}}"`
|
||
|
|
||
|
- Only send messages to a specific Polybar instance (all instances by default):
|
||
|
|
||
|
`polybar-msg -p {{pid}} {{cmd|action}} {{payload}}`
|
