The bar can be themed either by specifying a pre-complied theme or overriding defaults in the configuration.
We differentiate between themes and icon sets.
To use a theme or icon set other than the default, add them to your configuration file like so:
theme = "solarized-dark"
icons = "awesome"plain(default)solarized-darksolarized-lightslickmodernbad-wolfgruvbox-lightgruvbox-dark
none(default)awesomematerial
Note: In order to use the material icon set, you need a patched material icons font which can be found here. Make sure to pass it in your i3 configuration bar block.
Create a block in the configuration called theme or icons like so:
[theme]
name = "solarized-dark"
[theme.overrides]
idle_bg = "#123456"
idle_fg = "#abcdef"
[icons]
name = "awesome"
[icons.overrides]
bat = " | | "
bat_full = " |X| "
bat_charging = " |^| "
bat_discharging = " |v| "Example configurations can be found as example_theme.toml and example_icon.toml.
