===> New website for hosting themes <===

[ahatem]

Hi Every One .. I managed to pull 25k+ themes from the original website

I did the following before republishing them on the new website :-

• Filtered themes with high downloads (5k+ downloads)
• Removed all the duplicates and low contrast themes

Website is hosted on firebase → Eclipse Color Themes

Happy Coding 😄

Hi! This looks really cool, how can I install it onto Eclipse on MacOS?

[ahatem]

@YKawesome Install the plugin as mentioned here #281 (comment) then go to

Window -> Preferences -> General -> Appearance -> Color Theme  Click  Import a theme and select the file you downloaded

I found this just as I was looking at it on the wayback machine. Thank you for providing this site! Unfortunately it's not quite as useful as the original.

I've been trying to work on a theme plugin that works with dark UI, so hopefully I will get somewhere with that and maybe add a way to import from this site if possible.

@TheKodeToad That is wonderful … If there is anything I can assist with. Please let me know, and I will be happy to help.
Also, if there is any missing feature in the original website you would like to be added to this site, just let me know 😃

Is there an API? If not I could use a webview.

I've already added the ability to import Eclipse Color Theme files.

The repo can be found at https://github.com/TheKodeToad/BetterThemes.

@TheKodeToad
unfortunately there is no API but there is a preview page that you can use after getting the theme id from the colorTheme tag
Ex:- https://eclipse-color-themes.web.app/preview?id=bT3Z0RwlTKZzcWn5IXFa

Note: the website is written in Vue so it needs JavaScript to be enabled

and of course if this was not helpful just tell me and i will try to make a simple API that you can use 😃

Is there a download URL?

Sorry, YKawesome, if this is filling up your inbox.

Hi,

for the highlight project there is a convenient script to download ECT themes as XML. eclipsecolorthemes.org offered a GET request which accepted XML as type and the theme ID to retrieve the data. In case the database you have is already XML you might consider to offer a similar request - if it is JSON or some other structured text it also would be appreciated.

Hi @ahatem, could you provide an archive with all the themes for archiving purposes? Just to be sure, in the unlucky event your website goes down.
