# Pywal Colors Integration for Hyprland & Caelestia
|
|
|
|
This setup automatically applies pywal-generated colors to both Hyprland borders and Caelestia shell.
|
|
|
|
## Files Created
|
|
|
|
1. **`~/.config/wal/templates/hyprland-colors.conf`** - Template for Hyprland border colors
|
|
2. **`~/.config/wal/templates/caelestia-scheme.json`** - Template for Caelestia color scheme
|
|
3. **`~/pywal.sh`** - Easy-to-use script to apply colors to both systems
|
|
|
|
## How It Works
|
|
|
|
- When you run `wal -i /path/to/wallpaper`, pywal automatically processes the templates
|
|
- The generated files are placed in `~/.cache/wal/`
|
|
- Hyprland sources `~/.cache/wal/hyprland-colors.conf` for border colors
|
|
- Caelestia reads from `~/.local/state/caelestia/scheme.json` for its color scheme
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
|
|
### First Time Setup
|
|
Already done! Your Hyprland config now sources pywal colors automatically.
|
|
|
|
### Generate Colors from a Wallpaper
|
|
```bash
|
|
# Generate colors from a wallpaper
|
|
wal -i /path/to/your/wallpaper.png
|
|
|
|
# Apply colors to Hyprland and Caelestia (from anywhere!)
|
|
~/pywal.sh
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Regenerate from Current Wallpaper
|
|
```bash
|
|
# Regenerate colors from the current cached wallpaper
|
|
wal -R
|
|
|
|
# Apply colors
|
|
~/pywal.sh
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Quick Apply
|
|
```bash
|
|
# One-liner to generate and apply colors
|
|
wal -i /path/to/wallpaper.png && ~/pywal.sh
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## What Gets Colored
|
|
|
|
### Hyprland
|
|
- Active window border (gradient using colors 4 and 6)
|
|
- Inactive window border (using color 8)
|
|
|
|
### Caelestia Shell
|
|
- All Material Design 3 colors
|
|
- Terminal colors (term0-term15)
|
|
- Background, surface, and accent colors
|
|
- Complete color scheme based on wallpaper
|
|
|
|
## Customization
|
|
|
|
### Modify Border Colors
|
|
Edit `~/.config/wal/templates/hyprland-colors.conf` to use different pywal colors:
|
|
- Available variables: `{color0}` through `{color15}`, `{background}`, `{foreground}`, `{cursor}`
|
|
|
|
### Modify Caelestia Colors
|
|
Edit `~/.config/wal/templates/caelestia-scheme.json` to adjust color mappings.
|
|
|
|
After editing templates, run `wal -R` to regenerate colors.
|
|
|
|
## Automation
|
|
|
|
To automatically apply pywal colors on wallpaper change, you can add this to your autostart:
|
|
```bash
|
|
# In your ~/.config/hypr/hyprland.conf
|
|
exec-once = ~/pywal.sh
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Or create a wallpaper script that calls pywal automatically.
|
|
|
|
## Troubleshooting
|
|
|
|
### Colors not updating in Hyprland
|
|
```bash
|
|
# Reload Hyprland config
|
|
hyprctl reload
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Colors not updating in Caelestia
|
|
```bash
|
|
# Restart Caelestia shell
|
|
pkill caelestia && sleep 0.5 && caelestia shell -d &
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Check generated files
|
|
```bash
|
|
# View generated Hyprland colors
|
|
cat ~/.cache/wal/hyprland-colors.conf
|
|
|
|
# View generated Caelestia scheme
|
|
cat ~/.cache/wal/caelestia-scheme.json
|
|
```
