Power Profiles#

class ignis.services.power_profiles.PowerProfilesService → None#

A service for managing power profiles through the DBus interface power-profiles-daemon provides.

Example usage:

from ignis.services.power_profiles import PowerProfilesService

power_profiles = PowerProfilesService.get_default()

print(power_profiles.active_profile)
power_profiles.active_profile = "performance"

for profile in power_profiles.profiles:
    print(profile)

power_profiles.connect("notify::active-profile", lambda x, y: print(power_profiles.active_profile))
gproperty is_available: bool#

  • read-only

Whether power profiles capability in UPower is available and UPower is running.

If False, this service will not be functional.

gproperty active_profile: str#

  • read-write

Current active power profile.

Should be either of:

  • performance

  • balanced

  • power-saver

hold_profile(profile: str) → None#

This forces the passed profile (only performance or power-saver) to be activated until ignis exits, release_profile() is called, or the active_profile is changed manually.

Use if you need to ensure a specific profile is active for a certain amount of time or while a specific task is being performed. This way the previous state will not have to be managed by you.

Return type:

None

release_profile() → None#

Release the hold on the profile

Return type:

None

gproperty profiles: list[str]#

  • read-only

List of available power profiles.

Possible values are:

  • performance

  • balanced

  • power-saver

gproperty icon_name: str#

  • read-only

Icon name representing the active power profile.
