This is what I do (uses xlib module):
from Xlib import display
# Get resources from the display
d = display.Display()
s = d.screen()
r = s.root
res = r.xrandr_get_screen_resources()._data
# Count the number of screens
num_screens = 0
for output in res['outputs']:
print("Output %d:" % (output))
mon = d.xrandr_get_output_info(output, res['config_timestamp'])._data
print("%s: %d" % (mon['name'], mon['num_preferred']))
if mon['num_preferred']:
num_screens += 1
# Generate bars/widgets for all the screens.
screens = []
for screen in range(0, num_screens):
prompt = "{0}@{1}: ".format(os.environ["USER"], hostname)
screens.append(
Screen(
top=bar.Bar(
[add your bars/widgets here],
bar_height,
),
)
)
There's probably a way to do with with xcb though.
