lyx-colorscheme-brewer

A colorscheme brewer for LyX. It takes 16-color palettes and turns them into LyX colorschemes.

Ready-to-use color schemes

The following schemes have been created with lyx-colorscheme-brewer and are ready to be used. Check out the linked repositories for install instructions.

Creating new color schemes

  1. Create a color palette and save it as colors/theme_name.def. Color palettes are Python dictionaries mapping 16 + 3 color keys to HTML color codes. The following example provides a template: 
    palette = {
    # special
    "foreground":    "#ebdbb2",
    "background":    "#282828",
    "cursorcolor":   "#ebdbb2",

    # black
    "black":         "#3c3836",
    "brightblack":   "#504945",

    # red
    "red":           "#fb4934",
    "brightred":     "#cc241d",

    # green
    "green":         "#b8bb26",
    "brightgreen":   "#98971a",

    # yellow
    "yellow":        "#fabd2f",
    "brightyellow":  "#d79921",

    # blue
    "blue":          "#83a598",
    "brightblue":    "#458588",

    # magenta
    "magenta":       "#d1849b",
    "brightmagenta": "#b16286",

    # cyan
    "cyan":          "#8ec07c",
    "brightcyan":    "#689d6a",

    # gray/white
    "gray":          "#a89984",
    "white":         "#ebdbb2",
}
  2. Use the make_colorscheme.py script to create the LyX color scheme. For example, to create the Gruvbox color scheme from the color palette defined in colors/gruvbox.def file, run: 
    make_colorscheme.py gruvbox
    This creates a LyX colorscheme and saves it to out/gruvbox_lyx_cs.
