🖌️ Dynamic Theme

A Dynamic theme can be applied to the system based on the main colors of a wallpaper. A script is run at every login that picks a random wallpaper from my wallpapers folder and uses pywal to create a corresponding color scheme. This color scheme can be applied to alacritty, kitty, polybar, neovim and rofi.

📜 Scripts

• wallpaperRandomizer.sh

#!/bin/bash

# Set the directory of your wallpapers
WALLPAPERS_DIR="$HOME/Pictures/wallpapers"

# Check if the wallpapers directory exists
if [ ! -d "$WALLPAPERS_DIR" ]; then
    echo "Wallpapers directory not found."
    exit 1
fi

# Get a random wallpaper from the wallpapers directory
random_wallpaper=$(ls $WALLPAPERS_DIR | shuf -n 1)

# Set the wallpaper using feh
feh --bg-fill "$WALLPAPERS_DIR/$random_wallpaper"

# Run pywal.sh script located in ~/Scripts if it exists
PYWAL_SCRIPT="$HOME/Scripts/pywal.sh"
if [ -f "$PYWAL_SCRIPT" ]; then
    bash "$PYWAL_SCRIPT" "$WALLPAPERS_DIR/$random_wallpaper"
else
    echo "pywal.sh script not found."
fi

• pywal.sh - from polybar-themes.

Theme specific configuration

My alacritty config imports a color scheme from .config/wal/templates like described here. I've also added include ~/.cache/wal/colors-kitty.conf to my kitty config. In neovim, I just use wal.vim.

Managed with gnu stow.

Personal Notes

1. Copy configuration file into ~/dotfiles directory following the same structure as the home folder.
2. Before running stow . make sure to commit any unsaved changes.

Dealing with directories

1. Copy the whole directory to the corresponding ~/dotfiles location.
2. Run stow with the --adopt flag: stow --adopt ..

New files/directories (plugins, extra configuration...)

New files cannot be added directly to the dotfiles directory, instead:

1. Make sure to create the file on the default config location.
2. Copy the file/directory into ~/dotfiles.
3. Run stow with the adopt flag (this will create the new symlinks).
