Hi, I’m trying to set up the Polybar in my new bstwm. In particular, I want to show the percentage of my battery. I understood that I can change the /etc/polybar/confing.ini, and I did that by adding the battery module as is written in the GitHub wiki of Polybar. I also changed the “battery” and the “adapter” value reading them with ls -l /sys/class/power_supply/. But despite my efforts and my research, it does not work, and I don’t know why. Could someone help me?
I post the module that I’m using now:
[module/battery]
type = internal/battery
; This is useful in case the battery never reports 100% charge
full-at = 99
; Use the following command to list batteries and adapters:
; $ ls -1 /sys/class/power_supply/
battery = BAT1
adapter = ACAD
; If an inotify event haven't been reported in this many
; seconds, manually poll for new values.
;
; Needed as a fallback for systems that don't report events
; on sysfs/procfs.
;
; Disable polling by setting the interval to 0.
;
; Default: 5
poll-interval = 2
; see "man date" for details on how to format the time string
; NOTE: if you want to use syntax tags here you need to use %%{...}
; Default: %H:%M:%S
time-format = %H:%M
; Available tags:
; <label-charging> (default)
; <bar-capacity>
; <ramp-capacity>
; <animation-charging>
format-charging = <label-charging>
format-charging-prefix = ""
format-charging-prefix-foreground = ${color.green}
; Available tags:
; <label-discharging> (default)
; <bar-capacity>
; <ramp-capacity>
; <animation-discharging>
format-discharging = <label-discharging>
format-discharging-prefix = ""
format-discharging-prefix-foreground = ${color.pink}
; Available tags:
; <label-full> (default)
; <bar-capacity>
; <ramp-capacity>
format-full = <label-full>
format-full-prefix =
format-full-prefix-foreground = ${color.red}
; Available tokens:
; %percentage% (default)
; %time%
; %consumption% (shows current charge rate in watts)
label-charging = " %percentage%%"
; Available tokens:

; %consumption% (shows current discharge rate in watts)
