A workflow to check battery charge cycles??

[Rohit]

Does anyone have a workflow to check battery charge cycles??

All you need is a Run Script Action with default settings and the following code: system_profiler SPPowerDataType | grep "Cycle Count" | awk '{print $3}'. Then however you invoke it (e.g. Keyword Input) and how it outputs the information (e.g. Post Notification Output) is up to your preference.

When copying code, you need to do it exactly.

 

I wrote:

 

system_profiler SPPowerDataType | grep "Cycle Count" | awk '{print $3}'

 

And you did:

 

system_profiler SPPowerDataType
grep "Cycle Count"
awk '{print $3}'
.

try this: replace 'Run Script' with 'Script Filter', set to 'No Argument', and use this code: 

 

myCycleCount="$(system_profiler SPPowerDataType | grep "Cycle Count" | awk '{print $3}')"

cat << EOB

	{"items": [


    {
        "title": "My Cycle Count: $myCycleCount",
        "subtitle": "anything else you want to show",
        "arg": "any arguments you want to pass"
	}
]}
EOB

I have updated an older Battery workflow that was pretty popular until it stopped working. This has been fixed for Apple Silicon and new information in Big Sur and later. It is still pending the PR acceptance, but if you want to try it out for now, you can use it from here.
