`return-type` custom class doesn't apply style

[dxwil]

Make sure not to make this mistake in your custom modules. Let's say this is your module:

"custom/battery": { "exec": "~/.config/waybar/scripts/battery.sh", "interval": 60, "tooltip": false, "signal": 7, "return-type": "json" },

This script will work:

#!/bin/bash capacity=$(<"/sys/class/power_supply/macsmc-battery/capacity") if [ "$(<"/sys/class/power_supply/macsmc-battery/status")" = "Charging" ]; then unbuffer echo "{\"text\":\"$capacity%\",\"class\":\"charging\"}" else unbuffer echo "{\"text\":\"$capacity%\"}"
fi

This script will not work:

#!/bin/bash capacity=$(<"/sys/class/power_supply/macsmc-battery/capacity") unbuffer echo "{\"text\":\"$capacity%\"}" if [ "$(<"/sys/class/power_supply/macsmc-battery/status")" = "Charging" ]; then unbuffer echo "{\"text\":\"$capacity%\",\"class\":\"charging\"}" fi

Always put the json with more variables to be displayed first, because otherwise it will be overshadowed by the other one.
