The new kernel for the EeePC (2.6.25) has deprecated the
/proc/acpi/battery
interface, so I had to write a new script for use
in my own zsh
prompt.
The script will work in both 2.6.24 and 2.6.25, so without further ado, here it is. It is written as a function for easy inclusion in any prompts.
#!/bin/zsh
bat() {
PROC=/proc/acpi/battery/BAT0
SYS=/sys/class/power_supply/BAT0/uevent
STATE=
# dc: design capacity, rc: remaining capacity
if [ -f $PROC/info ]
then
STATE=$PROC/state # 2.6.24
dc=$(grep 'last full' < $PROC/info | awk '{ print $4 }')
rc=$(grep 'remaining' < $PROC/state | awk '{ print $3 }')
elif [ -f $SYS ]
then
STATE=$SYS # 2.6.25
dc=$(grep '\<power_SUPPLY_CHARGE_FULL\>' < $SYS | awk -F= '{ print $2 }')
rc=$(grep '\<power_SUPPLY_CHARGE_NOW\>' < $SYS | awk -F= '{ print $2 } ')
else
exit
fi
p=$(echo 3k $rc $dc / 100 \* p | dc )
if grep -iq discharging $STATE
then
printf " %02d" "$p"
else
if [ ${p%.*} -lt 100 ]; then
printf " %02d+" "$p"
fi
fi
}
bat
Update
After some tweaking I even made a better one which saves a few `grep`s.
#!/bin/zsh
bat() {
PROC=/proc/acpi/battery/BAT0
SYS=/sys/class/power_supply/BAT0/uevent
STATE=
# dc: design capacity, rc: remaining capacity
if [ -f $PROC/info ]
then
STATE=$PROC/state # 2.6.24
dc=$(awk '/last full/ { print $4 }' $PROC/info)
rc=$(awk '/remaining/ { print $3 }' $PROC/state)
elif [ -f $SYS ]
then
STATE=$SYS # 2.6.25
dc=$(awk -F= '$1 ~ /^POWER_SUPPLY_CHARGE_FULL$/ { print $2 }' $SYS)
rc=$(awk -F= '$1 ~ /^POWER_SUPPLY_CHARGE_NOW$/ { print $2 }' $SYS)
else
return 0
fi
p=$(echo 3k $rc $dc / 100 \* p | dc )
if grep -iq discharging $STATE; then
printf " %02d" "$p"
else
if [ ${p%.*} -lt 100 ]; then
printf " %02d+" "$p"
fi
fi
}
bat
Update 2
Just found that there is also a nice tool, called acpi
…which makes it
even more easy:
% acpi -V
Battery 0: Full, 100%
AC Adapter 0: on-line
Thermal 0: ok, 53.0 degrees C
Cooling 0: Processor 0 of 7
