Tmux iMessage Plugin

Tmux plugin that shows the current unread message count for iMessage

NOTE: This is extremely experimental. It uses ActiveRecord to parse iMessage's sqlite database. YMMV.

Script Dependencies

• Install ruby (tested on 2.0+)
• gem install activerecord
• Test by running ./scripts/messages

Usage

The following interpolations are made available for your statusline:

• #{imessages} - Count of unread iMessages

Here's the example in .tmux.conf:

set -g status-right "#{imessages} Messages | %a %h-%d %H:%M "

Screenshots

Installation with Tmux Plugin Manager (recommended)
