julia> PowerMonitor.status()
PowerMonitor.PowerStatus(:charging, 84.0)

Automation

import PowerMonitor
PowerMonitor.automate(
        Dict(   :nobatteries => ()->println("Batteries not included"),
                :charging =>    ()->println("Plugged in"),
                :full =>        ()->println("Plugged in & full"),
                :discharging => ()->println("On battery & discharging"),
                :unknown =>     ()->nothing,
            );
            interval = 1
        )

To stop all automation:

PowerMonitor.stop_automation()

Ready-made automation

Add this to .julia/config/startup.jl to disable Julia Pkg's auto-precompilation (requires v1.6) when on battery

import PowerMonitor
PowerMonitor.autoprecomp_notbattery()

powermonitor.jl's Issues

linux battery status is probably collected improperly

I don't have access to a Linux laptop, here's what I've asked to get from my friend's Ubuntu 20.04LTS. It seems like the current way is not applicable to some of the laptops; unsure of it, probably because their drivers aren't properly installed.
