Meters
Single-value readouts of a fraction of a whole — an arc gauge, a circular progress ring, linear/radial usage readouts and a liquid-fill gauge.

# Brok UI: Usage Gauge (`usage-gauge`)
A radial usage meter built on the gauge primitive: a semicircular used/total readout or a full-ring percentage with an optional caption.
Brok UI is a Laravel Blade component registry. Installed components are plain Blade files the app owns.
## Install
```bash
php artisan ui:add usage-gauge
```
## Usage
```blade
<div class="w-full flex flex-wrap items-end justify-center gap-8">
<x-ui.usage-gauge :used="12000" :total="32000" label="Storage" variant="semi" />
<x-ui.usage-gauge :used="6800" :total="10000" label="Monthly quota" variant="arc" caption="Resets in 12 days" />
</div>
```
## Props
- `used` (int, default `18`) — Amount currently used.
- `total` (int, default `24`) — Total capacity used is measured against.
- `label` (string, default `Usage`) — Accessible name for the underlying gauge, and the caption shown under the semi variant's readout.
- `caption` (mixed|null, default `null`) — Optional small caption rendered under the gauge in either variant.
- `variant` (semi|arc, default `semi`) — semi shows a used/total readout under a half-ring arc; arc centres a percentage inside a full ring.
## Use when
- Use when trend, distribution, flow, intensity, or relationship questions are easier to answer visually than in raw numbers.
- Showing a used/total quantity (seats, licences, storage, quota) as a radial dial that warns as it nears its ceiling.
- Wanting the threshold colour (comfortable, tight, near-limit) computed automatically from the ratio instead of set by hand.
## Avoid when
- Do not use a chart when users mainly need exact lookup or when a single metric would be clearer as text or a stat.
- A horizontal layout fits the surrounding UI better; use usage-meter instead.
- The value has no meaningful ceiling to warn against; use gauge or circular-progress directly instead.
## Anti-patterns
- Decorative charts without a meaningful question
## Rules
- Use the `<brok:usage-gauge>` tag (or `<x-ui.usage-gauge>`) in Blade; do not rewrite the component.
- Prefer the documented props and variants over utility-class overrides; when a utility must win, use the `!` important modifier.
- Use semantic design tokens (`bg-primary`, `text-muted-foreground`), never raw colour utilities.
- Keep the `data-slot` attributes; they are the styling and test hooks.

API
Props
| Prop | Type | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| used | int | 18 | Amount currently used. |
| total | int | 24 | Total capacity used is measured against. |
| label | string | Usage | Accessible name for the underlying gauge, and the caption shown under the semi variant's readout. |
| caption | mixed | null | null | Optional small caption rendered under the gauge in either variant. |
| variant | semi | arc | semi | semi shows a used/total readout under a half-ring arc; arc centres a percentage inside a full ring. |
Slots
default— Unused; the gauge renders from props only.
Data slots
Stable hooks for CSS overrides and browser tests.
Behavior
- Computes the used/total ratio and colours the arc primary, warning, or destructive as the ratio crosses shared thresholds from the usage-meter recipe, so usage-gauge and usage-meter never disagree on where "warning" starts.
- Composes gauge, suppressing its built-in value readout and overlaying its own percentage or used/total text.
- arc adds an optional caption line below the ring; semi always shows the used/total pair below the arc.
- Declares registry capability flags: a11y, responsive, rtl, darkMode, localized, reducedMotion.
Guidance
Reveal a visual trend, distribution, flow, or relationship.
Use when
- Use when trend, distribution, flow, intensity, or relationship questions are easier to answer visually than in raw numbers.
- Showing a used/total quantity (seats, licences, storage, quota) as a radial dial that warns as it nears its ceiling.
- Wanting the threshold colour (comfortable, tight, near-limit) computed automatically from the ratio instead of set by hand.
Avoid when
- Do not use a chart when users mainly need exact lookup or when a single metric would be clearer as text or a stat.
- A horizontal layout fits the surrounding UI better; use usage-meter instead.
- The value has no meaningful ceiling to warn against; use gauge or circular-progress directly instead.
Use instead
- Table for exact lookup
- Stat for a single value
Anti-patterns
- Decorative charts without a meaningful question
- Anatomy
- Theming hooks
Accessibility
- Keyboard
- No component-owned keyboard interaction; native element behavior applies.
- Focus
none
- Composes gauge, which sets aria-label from label on the underlying role="meter" element even though its own visual readout is hidden.
- The threshold colour is reinforced by the visible used/total or percentage text, never conveyed by colour alone.
- Semantic HTML and a stable
data-slotattribute for styling and scripting hooks. - Focus-visible rings use the
ringtoken, so keyboard focus is always visible. - Disabled and invalid states are conveyed to assistive tech, not by color alone.
- Targets WCAG 2.2 AA; verify contrast in light, dark, admin and customer surfaces in the preview.
- Labels go through
__()and layout uses logical properties (ms-*,text-start), so it mirrors underdir="rtl"— flip the preview to RTL to confirm. - Dark mode uses the same semantic tokens under the
darkclass; high contrast follows forced-color system tokens.

{{--
Usage gauge — a radial usage meter built on <x-ui.gauge>. The gauge owns the
role="meter" semantics and value text; we suppress its built-in readout and
overlay our own. Two shapes via `variant`: `semi` shows a used/total readout
under the arc (e.g. seats or licences used); `arc` centres a percentage inside
a full ring (e.g. storage or monthly quota) and accepts an optional `caption`.
Colour steps primary → warning → destructive by threshold.
