# pypower

A small but effective py3status module for displaying power details on py3status bar.

## Motivation

The default battery module for py3status ( [battery_level](https://py3status.readthedocs.io/en/latest/modules.html#battery-level) ) does not work on some devices.

This is an alternative module that can be used in such cases. 

**Note: This was made as a quick fix and contains pretty bad code. There is a lot of room for improvement.**

## Prerequisites

- Font Awesome

- [Python Dbus Module](https://pypi.org/project/dbus-python/)

## How to use

Add the following line to your pystatus config file:

```

order += "pypower"

```

Make sure you pass location of this module in your i3config.

It should look like this:

```

bar {

      ...

      

      status_command py3status -i /path/to/this/pypower-module/

      

      ...

}

```
