hyde-theme.nvim

This is an automatic theme detection intended for HyDE, a dotfile repo for Hyprland on Arch.

How this works

This plugin basically map your system's GTK theme, which HyDE will set, to a Neovim theme. It is not intended to work in isolation, you must have HyDE or some other ways to change your system GTK theme. It will not try to set the colorscheme itself due to the complexity of colorscheme intergration in Neovim.

The definition of the colorscheme itself is not shipped with the plugins, you will have to import their plugin yourself. Below is the default mapping of default HyDE themes to neovim colorscheme plugins:

• Catpuccin (Mocha/Latte): catpuccin/nvim
• Rose Pine/Material Sakura: rose-pine/nvim
• Tokyo Night: tokyonight.nvim (storm flavour)
• Gruvbox Retro: gruvbox.nvim
• Frosted Glass: modus-themes.nvim
• Nordic Blue: nightfox (nordfox flavour)
• The rest: I haven't decied yet

You can also set your own mapping and your default theme in opts. If there is no suitable mapping, Neovim's default scheme will be used.

Installation

Use your preferred plugin manager, for example, with lazy.nvim:

return {
  { 'catppuccin/nvim', name = 'catppuccin' },
  { 'rose-pine/neovim', name = 'rose-pine' },
  { 'folke/tokyonight.nvim', opts = {} },
  { 'EdenEast/nightfox.nvim' },
  { 'ellisonleao/gruvbox.nvim', opts = {} },
  { 'miikanissi/modus-themes.nvim' },
  --- More colorscheme if you wish
  {
    "CongLuanTran/hyde-theme.nvim",
    opts = {
      -- It is possible to set your own default theme.
      -- For example, "astrotheme" if your use AstroNvim
      -- default = "astrotheme"
      -- Optionally override theme mapping or add new mapping here
      -- ["Tokyo-Night"] = "tokyonight-moon"
      -- ["Your-GTK-Theme"] = "your-colorscheme"
    },
    config = function(_, opts)
      local hyde = require("hyde_theme")
      hyde.setup(opts)
      local theme = hyde.detect_theme()
      vim.cmd.colorscheme(theme)
    end,
  }
}
