Gruvbox dark and light color themes for Rofi

Rofi color themes based on the Gruvbox color scheme.

Includes six versions to choose from:

• Gruvbox Dark
  • Gruvbox Dark (soft contrast)
  • Gruvbox Dark (hard contrast)
• Gruvbox Light
  • Gruvbox Light (soft contrast)
  • Gruvbox Light (hard contrast)

These themes are included with Rofi as of version 1.3.0. Run rofi-theme-selector to preview/apply them with Rofi's theme selector script.

See Manual Installation if you wish to install the themes manually. This may be preferable if you plan on customizing them. See also Customization.

1. Download or clone the repository:

   git clone https://github.com/bardisty/gruvbox-rofi

2. Edit your Rofi configuration file (~/.config/rofi/config) and include one of the themes:

   #include /home/user/path/to/gruvbox-dark.theme
   

The following commands will install the dark theme. Replace your-user in the last step with your system user account name.

1. mkdir -p ~/.config/rofi/themes/gruvbox
2. git clone https://github.com/bardisty/gruvbox-rofi ~/.config/rofi/themes/gruvbox
3. echo '#include "/home/your-user/.config/rofi/themes/gruvbox/gruvbox-dark.theme"' >> ~/.config/rofi/config

Customization can be done a few ways:

• Edit a .theme file directly, or make a copy of the .theme file and edit that (see Manual Installation)

• Copy the contents of a .theme file into your Rofi configuration file (~/.config/rofi/config) and modify it there

• Apply a theme with rofi-theme-selector or add it to the Rofi configuration file manually (see Manual Installation), then add your overrides under the #include line, for example:

  ! Gruvbox color scheme
  #include "/home/user/.config/rofi/themes/gruvbox-dark.theme"
  
  ! gruvbox-dark.theme: green for active row background colors (default: yellow)
  !                  bg       fg       bg-alt   hl-bg,   hl-fg
  rofi.color-active: #98971a, #282828, #98971a, #b8bb26, #282828
  

The last option is ideal if you only want to change a setting or two, such as the active row colors or the border color. It also allows you to easily remain updated with the upstream versions of the themes.
