Prerequisites

The components use glyphs from a patched NERDfont. So you need to install a NERDfont and set it as the default font for status bar components.

I use the Source Code Pro patched NERDfont, this and other NERDfonts can be found in Nerd Font. The status bar font of iTerm2 can be setted in iTerm Preferences->Profile->Session->Configure Status Bar->Advanced.

Installation

1. git clone https://github.com/Vxider/iterm-components.git && cd iterm-components
2. Install iStats by gem install iStats. (Used by CPU temperature and Fan speed)
3. Install script to iTerm2 by using ./install.sh. Or copy the scripts you want to ~/Library/Application Support/iTerm2/Scripts/AutoLaunch
4. Click Scripts > AutoLaunch in the iTerm2 menu bar and select the components you want to be available.
5. Open iTerm Preferences->Profile->Session->Configure Status Bar and drag the components where you like.

You may need to restart the iTerm after installing the new components to make the scripts loaded.
