# Tmux battery status Enables displaying battery percentage and status icon in tmux status-right. ## Installation ### Intallation with [Tmux Plugin Manager](https://github.com/tmux-plugins/tpm) (recommended) Add plugin to the list of TPM plugins in `.tmux.conf`: set -g @plugin 'tmux-plugins/tmux-battery' Hit `prefix + I` to fetch the plugin and source it. If format strings are added to `status-right`, they should now be visible. ### Manual Installation Clone the repo: $ git clone https://github.com/tmux-plugins/tmux-battery ~/clone/path Add this line to the bottom of `.tmux.conf`: run-shell ~/clone/path/battery.tmux Reload TMUX environment: # type this in terminal $ tmux source-file ~/.tmux.conf If format strings are added to `status-right`, they should now be visible. ## Usage Add `#{battery_icon}`, `#{battery_percentage}` `#{battery_remain}`, or `#{battery_status_bg}` format strings to existing `status-right` tmux option. Example: # in .tmux.conf set -g status-right '#{battery_status_bg} Batt: #{battery_icon} #{battery_percentage} #{battery_remain} | %a %h-%d %H:%M ' ## Examples Battery full (for OS X):
![battery full](/screenshots/battery_full.png) Battery discharging, custom discharge icon:
![battery discharging, custom icon](/screenshots/battery_discharging.png) Battery charging:
![battery charging](/screenshots/battery_charging.png) Battery remain:
![battery remain](/screenshots/battery_remain.png) Battery fully charged:
![battery_status_bg_green](/screenshots/battery_status_bg_green.png) Battery between 99% and 51% charged:
![battery_status_bg_yellow](/screenshots/battery_status_bg_yellow.png) Battery between 50% and 16% charged:
![battery_status_bg_orange](/screenshots/battery_status_bg_orange.png) Battery between 15% and dead:
![battery_status_bg_red](/screenshots/battery_status_bg_red.png) This is done by introducing 4 new format strings that can be added to `status-right` option: - `#{battery_icon}` - will display a battery status icon - `#{battery_percentage}` - will show battery percentage - `#{battery_remain}` - will show remaining time of battery charge - `#{battery_status_bg}` - will set the background color of the status bar based on the battery percentage - `#{battery_status_fg}` - will set the foreground color of the status bar based on the battery percentage - `#{battery_graph}` - will show battery percentage as a bar graph ▁▂▃▅▇ ## Changing icons By default, these icons are displayed: - charged: ":battery:" ("❇ " when not on OS X) - charging: ":zap:" - discharging: (nothing shown) - attached but not charging: ":warning:" You can change these defaults by adding the following to `.tmux.conf` (the following lines are not in the code block so that emojis can be seen): - set -g @batt_charged_icon ":sunglasses:" - set -g @batt_charging_icon ":+1:" - set -g @batt_discharging_icon ":thumbsdown:" - set -g @batt_attached_icon ":neutral_face:" Don't forget to reload tmux environment (`$ tmux source-file ~/.tmux.conf`) after you do this. *Warning*: The battery icon change most likely will not be instant. When you un-plug the power cord, it will take some time (15 - 60 seconds) for the icon to change. This depends on the `status-interval` tmux option. Setting it to 15 seconds should be good enough. ### Tmux Plugins This plugin is part of the [tmux-plugins](https://github.com/tmux-plugins) organisation.
