# ❄️ nix-colors-adapters
> **Configure theme of all your apps with a single line**
Collection of adapters for automatically applying [nix-colors](https://github.com/Misterio77/nix-colors) `base16` schemes.
Firefox:
Dolphin (Kvantum):
Code for this example:
```diff
- colorScheme = inputs.nix-colors.colorSchemes.gruvbox-dark-hard;
+ colorScheme = inputs.nix-colors.colorSchemes.ayu-light;
```
## Adapters
| Adapter | Accent | Notes |
| -------------------- | ------ | -------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Adwaita (GTK3, GTK4) | 🟢 | sets GTK3 theme to `adw-gtk3` |
| Alacritty | 🔴 | |
| dunst | 🟠 | |
| ✨Firefox✨ | 🟢 | depends on Adwaita |
| GTK2 | 🟠 | |
| Kvantum | 🟠 | Kvantum is problematic, consider disabling it if you encounter broken apps |
| Rofi | 🔴 | |
| swaylock | 🟠 | |
| Wezterm | 🔴 | |
(🟢 supported, 🟠 possible, 🔴 impossible)
## Install (system flake + system home-manager)
1. configure home-manager, make sure to pass `inputs` to your home module ([vimjoyer tutorial](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FcC2dzecovw))
2. add `nix-colors` and `nix-colors-adapters` to you `inputs` in `flake.nix`:
```
inputs = {
...
nix-colors.url = "github:misterio77/nix-colors";
nix-colors-adapters.url = "gitlab:vfosnar/nix-colors-adapters";
...
};
```
3. import them in your home module `home.nix`:
```
imports = [
...
inputs.nix-colors.homeManagerModules.default
inputs.nix-colors-adapters.homeManagerModules.default
...
];
```
4. you're done!
## Configuration (home.nix)
You can configure any `base16` theme using [nix-colors](https://github.com/Misterio77/nix-colors).
To configure `nix-colors` with Gruvbox Dark Hard:
```nix
colorScheme = inputs.nix-colors.colorSchemes.gruvbox-dark-hard;
```
### Enable/disable adapter
All adapters are enabled by default. To disable an adapter set `nixColorsAdapters..enable = false;`. For example to disable the `kvantum` adapter so you can manage its theme manually:
```
nixColorsAdapters = {
kvantum.enable = false;
};
```
### Configure Firefox
For Firefox to work you need to specify a list of profile names. The configuration will only apply to these profiles. To properly apply colors the `System theme — auto` theme must be manually set in Firefox settings.
```
nixColorsAdapters = {
firefox.profiles = [ "alice", "bob" ];
};
```
### Configure Wezterm
Themes for Wezterm cannot be applied automatically so you have to run the following in your wezterm.lua:
```lua
config.colors = wezterm.color.load_base16_scheme("${config.nixColorsAdapters.wezterm.base16-file}");
return config;
```
or if configuring Wezterm outside of home manager
```lua
local wezterm = require 'wezterm';
config.colors = wezterm.color.load_base16_scheme(" ~/.config/wezterm/nix-colors-adapters-base16.yaml");
return config;
```
## Accent color
The accent color for selected theme is automatically selected for known themes ([source](./lib/default.nix)). If you want to override the color and provide your own just set `nixColorsAdapters.accent`. Example:
```
nixColorsAdapters = {
accent = "ff0000";
# or
accent = config.colorScheme.colors.base08;
};
```
