OVERVIEW

Some modules support 'states' which allows percentage values to be used as styling triggers to apply a class when the value matches the declared state value.

STATES

Every entry (state) consists of a <name> (typeof: string) and a <value> (typeof: integer).

• The state can be addressed as a CSS class in the style.css. The name of the CSS class is the <name> of the state. Each class gets activated when the current value is equal to or less than the configured <value> for the battery, pulseaudio and wireplumber modules, or equal to or greater than the configured <value> for all other modules.

• Also, each state can have its own format. Those can be configured via format-<name>, or if you want to differentiate a bit more, as format-<status>-<state>.

EXAMPLE

"battery": {
	"bat": "BAT2",
	"interval": 60,
	"states": {
		"warning": 30,
		"critical": 15
	},
	"format": "{capacity}% {icon}",
	"format-icons": ["", "", "", "", ""],
	"max-length": 25
}

STYLING STATES

• #battery.<state> - <state> can be defined in the config.

EXAMPLE:

• #battery.warning: { background: orange; }

• #battery.critical: { background: red; }
