[Suggestion] Script to change theme.

[adamwojt]

With below simple script it's easier to choose your favorite theme.

Note:

• This requires allow_remote_control yes in your kitty.conf
• Save below to file named "random_kitty" and run sudo chmod +x random_kitty". Then you can execute it with ./random_kitty` or add it to your path.

#!/usr/bin/python
import os
import random
import subprocess

home = os.getenv("HOME")
kitty = f"{home}/.config/kitty"
choices_dir = f"{kitty}/kitty-themes/themes"
choices = os.listdir(choices_dir)
dest = f"{kitty}/theme.conf"

if os.path.islink(dest):
    os.remove(dest)

new_theme = random.choice(choices)
new_theme_path = f"{choices_dir}/{new_theme}"
os.symlink(new_theme_path, dest)

command = f"kitty @ set-colors -a -c {kitty}/kitty.conf"
subprocess.run(command, shell=True)

print(f"Kitty theme set to {new_theme}")
