Introduction

If comming from v2, please check v3 breaking changes.

wallust is a command line tool for creating 16 color palettes, since it was the original intent of pywal, the tool that inspired the creation of wallust.

Features

• Includes man pages and completions!
• Feature rich templating:
  • You can use a subset of Jinja2 (default).
  • Alternatively, simply use the pywal syntax (requires selecting it on the config file).
• Sets terminal colors on all (or the current, -u) active terminals:
  • Windows: Adds a color scheme for the windows terminal by updating settings.json on Windows Terminal, to enable this scheme for the first time you will have to selected it manually
  • *NIX: ASCII escape sequences:
    • /dev/pts/ on Linux
    • ps to search active terminals on OpenBSD
  • MacOS: iTerm2 sequences, /dev/ttys00 on MacOS
• Cache scheme palettes, overwritten by -w:
  • Linux: $XDG_CACHE_HOME or $HOME/.cache
  • MacOs: $HOME/Library/Caches
  • Windows: {FOLDERID_LocalAppData}
• Read pywal/terminal-sexy colorschemes with wallust cs.
• Built-in themes with wallust theme (compile time feature).
• Configuration file at wallust.toml (but wallust can work without one!):
  • wallust checks for ~/.config/wallust/wallust.toml for the config file, if not found it will use default implementations.
  • Configuration variables are avaliable as cli flags.
  • Configurable methods for backends, colorspaces, palettes and threshold.
  • OS dependant path:
    • Linux: $XDG_CONFIG_HOME or $HOME/.config
    • MacOs: $HOME/Library/Application Support
    • Windows: {FOLDERID_RoamingAppData}
