Update razer-bat; now working! 
- Update README.md to document installation and usage
- Implement razer-bat as simply as possible.
- Most parameters can be adjusted, but only mouse and dock names are required. Further implementation of customizability should be pretty easy.

Razer-bat - Update dock status color based on battery level

This script uses razer-cli and standard bash utilities to set the RGB LEDs of your Razer wireless dock to reflect the battery level of your wireless mouse (or keyboard).

Installation & Usage

Before installing, we need to install some dependencies:

  1. Install razer-cli: instructions.
  2. Download this script and make it executable: curl -s https://gitea.jafner.tools/Jafner/Jafner.net/raw/branch/main/projects/razer-bat/razer-bat.sh > ./ && chmod +x ./razer-bat.sh.
  3. Set the WIRELESS_DEVICE_NAME and WIRED_DEVICE_NAME variables at the top of the script.
    1. Set WIRELESS_DEVICE_NAME with the name of your wireless mouse, keyboard, or whatever you want to monitor the battery level of. (Tip: You can find it by running razer-cli -ls).
    2. Set WIRED_DEVICE_NAME with the name of your wired charging dock, or whatever device whose RGB you want to reflect the battery level of your wireless device.
  4. Run the script once: ./razer-bat.sh. Verify everything is working properly.
  5. Move the script to somewhere safe. For example: mv ./razer-bat.sh $HOME/.local/razer-bat
  6. Create a cronjob for the script: echo "*/5 * * * * $HOME/.local/razer-bat" | crontab -
