## Description
|
|
|
|
Without dimmer:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
With dimmer:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This script is not an independent blocklet and meant to use as filter with any
|
|
i3blocks blocklets.
|
|
|
|
dimmer useful if your bar have light background color and you want to use
|
|
colored blocklets made for dark background.
|
|
|
|
dimmer parses a blocket output, gets strings with hex color codes and reduces
|
|
it values to make colors darker.
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
|
|
To use dimmer you should add it through pipe, e.g. you may keep following in
|
|
your i3blocks.conf:
|
|
|
|
```ini
|
|
[dimmer]
|
|
# Global properties
|
|
command=(/usr/lib/i3blocks/$BLOCK_NAME ; echo) | $SCRIPT_DIR/dimmer
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
echo is required for properly support of some scripts that does not produce new
|
|
line symbol on the end of their output (like bandwidth blocklet).
|
|
|
|
## Options
|
|
|
|
By default dimmer will reduce color values to 50%. Also dimmer supports custom
|
|
brightness values in percents as an argument, e.g.:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
dimmer 72
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
This will reduce values to 72% of origin.
