# YAML Color schemes for Gnome Terminal
Script(s) for defining Gnome Terminal (or Roxterm) themes with a YAML file.
Builds on [Anthony25's gnome-terminal-colors-solarized] for solarized Gnome Terminal colours (the
repository is added as a submodule of this repository).
This repository comes with two YAML-base themes: *zenburn* and *ztevenburn*.
The zenburn theme is based on [planbnet's gnome-terminal-zenburn.sh], while
*ztevenburn* similar to Zenburn, but with more contrast (i.e. a darker
background).

## Requirements
### Perl (5.14 or later)
The following modules should be part of the default Perl installation:
* `File::Basename`
* `FindBin`
* `Getopt::Long`
* `Time::Piece`
The following modules will probably need to be installed separately:
* `Pod::Usage`
* `YAML`
* `Term::ReadKey`
## Initialisation
```
git clone [email protected]:sbakker/gnome-terminal-profile.git
git submodule init
```
## Usage
See the POD documentation of `parse_yaml_theme.pl`
```
perldoc src/parse_yaml_theme.pl
src/parse_yaml_theme.pl --manual
```
### Standalone usage
The `install.sh` script was copied from [Anthony25's gnome-terminal-colors-solarized]
repository and modified to include the use of the YAML parser.
```
git submodule init
mkdir -p ./colors/my-color
# ... create a colors.yaml in ./colors/my-color
./install.sh
```
### Using with gnome-terminal-colors-solarized
To use with [Anthony25's gnome-terminal-colors-solarized] repository:
Copy your YAML file to a new directory in the `colors` directory:
```
mkdir /path/to/gnome-terminal-colors-solarized/my-theme
cp my-theme.yaml /path/to/gnome-terminal-colors-solarized/my-theme/colors.yaml
```
Then, "compile" it to create the appropriate files:
```
src/parse_yaml_theme.pl /path/to/gnome-terminal-colors-solarized/my-theme/colors.yaml compile
```
Finally, use the `install.sh` script to install the colour theme.
```
cd /path/to/gnome-terminal-colors-solarized
./install.sh
```
### Converting gnome-terminal-colors-solarized profiles
Any "classic" profiles can be converted to YAML with the
`convert_solarized.sh` script.
```
$ ./convert_solarized.sh
converting gnome-terminal-colors-solarized/colors/dark
converting gnome-terminal-colors-solarized/colors/dark_alternative
converting gnome-terminal-colors-solarized/colors/light
```
## Scripts
### install.sh
Copy of [Anthony25's gnome-terminal-colors-solarized]'s `install.sh` script
with small modifications to load YAML-base color schemes.
### convert_solarized.sh
Script to convert "classic" color scheme formats to YAML-based. Just point it
to a directory with a "colors" sub-directory (and optionally specify a prefix
to use for the YAML-based output directory) and the script will do the rest.
### show_theme.sh
Can show classic and YAML-based color themes.
```
# Look in colors/ztevenburn/colors.yaml
./show_theme colors/ztevenburn/colors.yaml
./show_theme ztevenburn
# Looks in "classic" gnome-terminal-colors-solarized/colors/light
./show_theme gnome-terminal-colors-solarized/colors/light
```
### src/parse_yaml_theme.pl
Parse a YAML-based theme.
```
$ src/parse_yaml_theme.pl ./colors/ztevenburn/colors.yaml
bd_color='#E3CEAB'
bg_color='#1C1C1C'
fg_color='#BABDB6'
palette=( '#1C1C1C' '#DD9393' '#7F9F7F' '#E3CEAB' '#DFAF8F' '#C693A4'
'#8CD0D3' '#BABDB6' '#3F3F3F' '#EEA3A3' '#9FCF9F' '#F3DEBB' '#EFBF9F'
'#D7A3B4' '#9CE0E3' '#DCDCCC' )
```
Also has a preview option with the `show` sub-command:
### src/color_matrix
Show a matrix of the terminal colours. Example with the `ztevenburn` theme:
### src/ramp_color
Only works well on a TrueColor terminal.
Given a start color, display a color ramp of increasingly lighter or darker colors, and a demonstration of these colors in a text string.
See `perldoc src/ramp_color` for more information.
### src/terminal_colors
Modified clone of the XFree86 `256colors.pl`. Can print a 256 colour map as well as a list of all extended colors and their RGB values or a visually pleasing spectrum (the latter only for TrueColor terminals).
See `perldoc src/terminal_colors` for more information.
### src/random_theme.pl
Fun stuff for generating a completely random colour theme. Script spits out a random YAML configuration.
To generate, use `random_theme.pl` and run `parse_yaml_theme.pl` to show the
results:
```
shell$ src/random_theme.pl > wacko.yaml
shell$ src/parse_yaml_theme.pl wacko.yaml show
```
This will look something like:
Then, save the YAML file in a theme directory and install the theme:
```
shell$ mkdir -p colors/wacko
shell$ mv wacko.yaml colors/wacko/colors.yaml
shell$ ./install.sh -p Wacko -s wacko
```
The result will then be something like:
### src/theme_to_yaml.pl
Create a YAML file from a "classic" theme (or display a "classic" theme).
Example:
```
$ src/theme_to_yaml.pl gnome-terminal-colors-solarized/colors/light
```
Output:
```
# YAML dump of gnome-terminal-colors-solarized/colors/light/
# Generated by theme_to_yaml.pl, 30-Nov-2017 16:12:29 +0100
