format:
typeof: string

The format, how the time should be displayed.

format-time:
typeof: string
default: {H} h {M} min
The format, how the time should be displayed.

format-icons:
typeof: array/object

FORMAT REPLACEMENTS

{capacity}: Capacity in percentage

{icon}: Icon, as defined in format-icons.

{time}: Estimate of time until full or empty. Note that this is based on the power draw at the last refresh time, not an average.

TIME FORMAT

The battery module allows you to define how time should be formatted via format-time.

The two arguments are: {H}: Hours {M}: Minutes

CUSTOM FORMATS

The battery module allows to define custom formats based on up to two factors. The best fitting format will be selected.

format-<state>: With states, a custom format can be set depending on the capacity of your battery.

format-<status>: With the status, a custom format can be set depending on the status in /sys/class/power_supply/<bat>/status (in lowercase).

format-<status>-<state>: You can also set a custom format depending on both values.
