Make a hot theme.toml for your Yazi icons with your favorite color palette.
Basically just an adaptation of
tiny-devicons-auto-colors.nvim
plugin for Yazi.
Dark theme
Light theme
Observe how the default colors (on the left) have been replaced with user-provided colors (on the right). The key lies in selecting the nearest color from the new given palette that matches the original one.
These screenshots were made using the script's default output, which is the
same as the one you can find in the catppuccin.toml file. The default config
uses the Mocha and Latte palettes for dark and light themes, respectively.
If you have a taste for catppuccin
flavors,
just grab the available ready-made theme inside the catppuccin
directory. Rename the file to theme.toml and add it to your Yazi
configuration path. This can be done with a single curl command.
For the Mocha flavor:
curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/lpnh/icons-brew.yazi/main/catppuccin/mocha.toml >> ~/.config/yazi/theme.tomlFor the Latte flavor:
curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/lpnh/icons-brew.yazi/main/catppuccin/latte.toml >> ~/.config/yazi/theme.tomlThat's it, enjoy!
Use the dark_colors_table and light_colors_table in the
config.lua file to apply the desired color palette. There's also
some other variables you can adjust to change the color matching results.
Run the brew.lua script and it will generate both dark and light theme files.
lua brew.luaAdd the generated file to your Yazi config directory:
mv theme-dark.toml ~/.config/yazi/theme.toml- Yazi for the amazing — and Blazing Fast —
terminal file manager. The
brew.luafollows the same script found on Yazi's repo. - tiny-devicons-auto-colors.nvim,
for the algorithm and implementation logic. I.e. everything on the prepare
path and the
config.luafile derived from it. - nvim-web-devicons, for providing and maintaining the icons we all rely on.
- catppuccin, for the soothing pastel theme. The warmest flavors one could ask for.
