🦎 KDE Chameleon 🦎

Automatically generate KDE color schemes based on your wallpaper

Collage

Requirements

System-wide install (sudo)

pip3 install pywal

A KDE Theme that follows your color scheme

This is required to get the colors in all your kde applications

The theme i used is : arch

Installation

Simply copy or clone the script, and make it executable.

Usage

The script requires only 1 argument : the picture you want to set as wallpaper

./kde-chameleon.sh wallpaper.png

This will set that picture as a wallpaper across all desktops, genereate a .colors file in ~/.local/share/color-schemes/ using the pywal cache, and apply that color scheme.

Making the terminal theme permanent

By default pywal only applies the color scheme to the current terminal.

To make it permanent accross all new terminal windows too, check out :

Adding additional theming scripts

This script only generates and applies a KDE color scheme, which is active in all KDE applications (settings/dolphin/dialog windows/...) + your terminal.

If you want to theme additional applications like spotify/discord/firefox/... you can easily plug in other scripts that automatically do that for you too based on this color scheme.

At the end of the script theres a call to execute other_scripts.sh where you can add your own scripts based on your needs.

There are already alot of scripts availible to theme different applications using pywal, check out :

The script i used to theme my firefox is pywalfox ! It's very awesome.
