Battery

What#

caution

The segment is not supported and automatically disabled on windows when WSL 1 is detected. Works fine with WSL 2.

Battery displays the remaining power percentage for your battery.

Sample Configuration#

{
  "type": "battery",
  "style": "powerline",
  "powerline_symbol": "\uE0B0",
  "foreground": "#193549",
  "background": "#ffeb3b",
  "background_templates": [
    "{{if eq \"Charging\" .State.String}}#40c4ff{{end}}",
    "{{if eq \"Discharging\" .State.String}}#ff5722{{end}}",
    "{{if eq \"Full\" .State.String}}#4caf50{{end}}"

}

Properties#

display_error: boolean - show the error context when failing to retrieve the battery information - defaults to false
charging_icon: string - icon to display when charging - defaults to empty
discharging_icon: string - icon to display when discharging - defaults to empty
charged_icon: string - icon to display when fully charged - defaults to empty
not_charging_icon: string - icon to display when fully charged - defaults to empty

Properties#

.State: struct - the battery state, has a .String function
.Current: float64 - Current (momentary) charge rate (in mW).
.Full: float64 - Last known full capacity (in mWh)
.Design: float64 - Reported design capacity (in mWh)
.ChargeRate: float64 - Current (momentary) charge rate (in mW). It is always non-negative, consult .State field to check whether it means charging or discharging (on some systems this might be always 0 if the battery doesn't support it)
.Voltage: float64 - Current voltage (in V)
.DesignVoltage: float64 - Design voltage (in V). Some systems (e.g. macOS) do not provide a separate value for this. In such cases, or if getting this fails, but getting Voltage succeeds, this field will have the same value as Voltage, for convenience
.Percentage: float64 - the current battery percentage
.Error: string - the error in case fetching the battery information failed
.Icon: string - the icon based on the battery state
