------ Configuration
-------------
* Consult the `documentation Basic powerline configuration is done via `JSON` files located at `.config/powerline/`. It is a good idea to start by copying the default configuration located at `powerline_root/powerline/config_files/` to `.config/powerline/`.
<https://powerline.readthedocs.org/en/latest/>`_ for more information and If you installed the powerline from the AUR or via pip, `powerline_root` should be `/usr/lib/python3.6/site-packages/` or something similar, depending on your python version.
installation instructions.
This should yield you the following directory structure:
::
.config/powerline/
├── colorschemes
│   ├── ...
│   └── wm
|      └── default.json // Your configuration goes here
├── colors.json
├── config.json
└── themes
├── ...
└── wm
└── default.json // Your configuration goes here
The files in the subdirectories of `themes` are used to specify which segments shall be shown; the files in subdirectories of `colorschemes` are used to specify which colors (as defined in `colors.json`) shall be used to display a segment.
Note that your local configuration only overrides the global configuration, it does not replace it, i.e. if you don't configure something locally, the global default will be used instead.
* Consult the `documentation <https://powerline.readthedocs.org/en/latest/configuration.html#quick-setup-guide>`_ for more details. See also the `segment reference <https://powerline.readthedocs.org/en/latest/configuration/segments.html>`_ for available segments and their configuration.
