A simple (NOOB) script to change between 2 themes and wallpapars on Ubuntu Budgie 20.04 at specified times during the day/night.
A. INTRO:
Surprisingly, I was unable to find anything else similar to this. So i put this script together to do the job for me and maybe help you if you're looking for a quick solution.
The only app i found was AutomaThemely (https://github.com/C2N14/AutomaThemely) But it did not install on my pc for reasons unknown to me (I didn't try hard enough maybe). If it works for you then i think it's way better than mine.
B. DISCLAIMER:
- I'm no programmer, don't expect this to work on all systems.
- I've only tested this on my own system runnung Ubuntu Budgie 20.04.
- I don't think you need to install any additional dependencies.
- If you would like to test it on other systems and create a GUI for it, you're welcome.
- I will try to improve it if i have the time & others can point me in the right direction
C. HOW TO USE:
-
Copy the folder anywhere you want
-
Edit the "themomatic.py" file:
a. Lines 13 & 14: change your dark & light theme names
b. Lines 15 & 16: choose your own wallpapers
c. Lines 17 & 18: change the times you want the changes to occur (use the same time format)
d. Save the file
-
Make the script executable
-
Add the script "themomatic.py" to your auto-start commands
-
Logout and login again
-
Pray that it works
