v1.1

@github-actions github-actions released this 29 May 15:19

It is always recommended to build yourself, but here you go...

Make sure to select x64 for Intel-Macs or arm64 for Apple-Silicon Macs.

Changes:

  • Fixed crash when charging from 0-14%
  • Fixed possible memory leak
  • Added workflow to build x64 (GitHub was acting weird with Arm64, so those are built on my own machine)

Install Instructions:

  • Download x64 or Arm64 from below
  • Unzip to /opt/BatteryStatus by:
    • (ARM64) sudo unzip BatteryStatus-v1.1-linux-arm64.zip -d /opt/BatteryStatus
      or
    • (X64) sudo unzip BatteryStatus-v1.1-linux-x64.zip -d /opt/BatteryStatus
  • To start BatteryStatus at boot, run:
    • sudo ln -s /opt/BatteryStatus/batterystatus.service /etc/systemd/system/batterystatus.service
    • sudo systemctl daemon-reload
    • sudo systemctl enable batterystatus.service
    • sudo systemctl start batterystatus.service

Configure tiny-dfr

  • Edit your /usr/share/tiny-dfr/config.toml to include the following:
    { Icon = "battery_status", Action = "Battery" }

  • Copy the text above and run:

    • sudo nano /usr/share/tiny-dfr/config.toml
    • Go to the layer you want to show the battery on (both should be fine too)
    • Paste the line (make sure you add a comma , to the end of the previous line)
    • Exit nano with Ctrl + X then "Y" then Enter
    • Either plug/unplug your laptop to restart tiny-dfr or run
      • sudo service tiny-dfr restart
    • If you see error text, the config syntax got messed up, look at it closely or open an issue.
