Time left in a day Progress Bar

This function will display the hours and percentage of the day left, and a progress bar (1xEmoji for each hour - but you can edit the bar length using barLength variable)

Visual Example: ⏳04:20h (18.0%) 🟢🟢🟢🟢🟢⭕️⭕️⭕️⭕️⭕️⭕️⭕️⭕️⭕️⭕️⭕️⭕️⭕️⭕️⭕️⭕️⭕️⭕️⭕️

Usage

${timeLeftBar()}

Implementation

function timeLeftBar()
    local barLength = 24
    local now = os.date("*t") -- get current time as a table
    local secondsPassed = now.hour * 3600 + now.min * 60 + now.sec
    local totalSeconds = 24 * 3600
    local secondsLeft = totalSeconds - secondsPassed
    local percentLeft = (secondsLeft / totalSeconds) * 100
    local percentPassed = 100 - percentLeft  -- time gone

    -- Format time left as HH:MM
    local hoursLeft = math.floor(secondsLeft / 3600)
    local minutesLeft = math.floor((secondsLeft % 3600) / 60)
    local timeStr = string.format("%02d:%02d", hoursLeft, minutesLeft)

    -- Create progress bar (🟢 = time left, ⭕️ = time past)
    local filledLength = math.floor((percentPassed / 100) * barLength)
    local bar = string.rep("🟢", barLength - filledLength) .. string.rep("⭕️", filledLength)

    -- Combine everything
    local tlb = string.format("⏳%sh (%.1f%%) %s", timeStr,percentLeft,bar )
    return tlb
end
