43200, -- half day
function(widget, stdout)
local btc, pos, err = require("dkjson").decode(stdout, 1, nil) -- dkjson
--local btc, pos, err = require("lain.util").dkjson.decode(stdout, 1, nil) -- lain
local btc_price = (not err and btc and btc["subtotal"]["amount"]) or "N/A"
-- customize here
widget:set_text(btc_price)
end
)
```
