Bing-Wallpaper-for-ChromeOS

Chrome extension that downloads daily picture from Bing and sets as Chromebook wallpaper. ChromeOS only!

Why

I had missed my scripts for downloading and rotating wallpapers from Bing on macOS and my collection of Bing wallpapers gathered over years.

Status

Since version 0.7 it is pre-release - works well.

TODO

  • Rotate wallpapers
  • Make proper options page
    • Show gallery of pictures available offline (already downloaded)
    • and let set selected as wallpaper
    • Make downloads optional
    • Allow user to choose folder for downloading wallpapers
    • Allow setting alarm's interval (checking for new wallpapers)
    • Let choose Stretch or Center options
  • Fallback from file url to image origin url
  • Use url as unique ID instead of hash ??
  • Get file descriptions form Bing JSON or better from image EXIF
  • Set minimum Chrome version in manifest.json (ES6)

FIXME

  • Latest wallpaper is re-downloaded somehow options ain't saved at first. Drives me nut this bug.
