# NOAA Wallpaper

## Description

This is a script that display a "real time" image of Earth, incoming from NOAA's satellite data, and sets it as desktop wallpaper for the Linux Xfce Desktop Environment (Works on Linux Mint)

## Installation

> sudo apt-get install imagemagick

> 

> sudo mkdir /opt/noaawallpaper

> 

> sudo curl -L https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Diego0101/noaa_wallpaper/refs/heads/main/noaawallpaper.sh -o /opt/noaawallpaper/noaawallpaper.sh

> 

> sudo chmod 755 /opt/noaawallpaper/noaawallpaper.sh

> 

> sudo update-rc.d noaawallpaper.sh default

## Execution 

By runing the script for GLM data:

> /opt/noaawallpaper/noaawallpaper.sh -s glm

or DayNight data

> /opt/noaawallpaper/noaawallpaper.sh -s dn

My personal choice is to invoke it through the shortcut: Ctrl+F11

It can be set by clicking on Start>Keyboard>Application Shortcuts, Add, and set the execution of "/opt/noaawallpaper.sh -s dn" triggered by Ctrl+F11

*Feel free to use, report or comment*
