Install

My dotfiles is not recommended for full use, it's not perfect and easily changed by me, modular use is best. I'll break down the entire dotfiles into major modules and provide installation instructions for each.

Matugen

The most important module, which is responsible for implementing the generation of colours.

1. Copy the .config/matugen folder of my project
2. Check the config.toml file, for each colour you need to provide input_path (template location), output_path (location of the output theme)
3. Check the templates file, it contains all the templates I use.
4. After configuring config.toml, use matugen image ‘wallpaper location’ -m ‘light/dark’ to generate the colours.
5. Configuration is required for gtk and qt to take effect, see the matugen-themes

Important

For more information on using matugen, see matugen-wiki

Aylurs-gtk-shell

1. Make sure you have installed ags, which is responsible for bar, app-launcher and so on.
2. Getting PoSayDone's ags Configuration

git clone https://github.com/PoSayDone/.dotfiles_nix.git
cd .dotfiles_nix/home-manager/modules/
cp -r ags ~/.config/

3. There are some bugs in this configuration, e.g. active-app and app-launcher don't update in real time, You can choose my file to replace the corresponding file.

Waypaper

1. waypaper makes grips used to change the wallpaper and as a tool for matugen front end. You can choose your own.
2. I use zenity to generate the selection UI for matugen, if you need to change it go to .config/waypaper/ and change post_command in config.ini.

Other modules

For the other modules, just make sure of the paths and it's very simple to get them working.
