Send [D-Bus](https://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/dbus/) notifications when the (Linux) host's battery runs low.

</h4>
## Prerequisites
- Install `libnotify`
- Install a Notification Server to render desktop notifications
- Use [mako](https://github.com/emersion/mako) on Wayland/Sway setups
## Usage
You can run `batalert` with default setting to send the first notification when the battery falls below 15% and repeat the notification every 3%. Notifications timeout after 15 seconds. `batalert` resets when you plug-in your charger.
### Customization
- Check the help text:
```
batalert -h
```
- Show a notification when the battery falls below 20%, repeat notification every 4% on 16%, 12%, 8% ... :
```
batalert --alert 20 --notification-step 4
```
- Timeout notifications after a minute:
```
batalert --timeout 60
```
- Use a custom icon:
```
batalert --icon /usr/share/icons/<your-icon>.png
```
- Monitor a particular battery, e.g., `BAT2`:
```
batalert --uevent /sys/class/power_supply/BAT2/uevent
```
- Monitor multiple batteries (repeat the `--uevent` option):
```
batalert --uevent /sys/class/power_supply/BAT0/uevent --uevent /path/to/bat1 -u /path/to/bat2
```
## Building
Build the app via `Cargo`:
```
cargo build --release
```
