Clone the plugin into your BitBar plugin directory:

$ git clone https://github.com/colbin8r/bitbar-online

Install dependencies:

Activate the plugin with a symlink:

$ cd ..
$ ln -s bitbar-online/online.10s.js

Refresh your BitBar to verify everything works!

Changing the update interval

By default, the plugin refreshes every 10 seconds. You can always open the dropdown and manually refresh it if you like.

The update interval is encoded in the name of the file in the BitBar plugins directory. To change it, just change the name of the symlink:

$ cd "$(defaults read com.matryer.BitBar pluginsDirectory)"
$ mv online.10s.js online.1m.js # Change to 1 minute
