i3lock-color

making i3lock's typing indicator color scheme configurable

eBrnd added the following command line options:

  • --insidevercolor=rrggbbaa -- Inside of the circle while the password is being verified
  • --insidewrongcolor=rrggbbaa -- Inside of the circle when a wrong password was entered
  • --insidecolor=rrggbbaa -- Inside of the circle while typing/idle
  • --ringvercolor=rrggbbaa -- Outer ring while the password is being
  • --ringwrongcolor=rrggbbaa -- Outer ring when a wrong password was entered
  • --ringcolor=rrggbbaa -- Outer ring while typing/idle
  • --linecolor=rrggbbaa -- Line separating outer ring from inside of the circle and delimiting the highlight segments
  • --textcolor=rrggbbaa -- Text ("verifying", "wrong!")
  • --keyhlcolor=rrggbbaa -- Keypress highlight segments
  • --bshlcolor=rrggbbaa -- Backspace highlight segments

I added a few more:

  • --wrong-text="wrong!" -- Change the text that shows when you enter an incorrect password
  • --verifying-text="verifying..." -- Change the text that shows while PAM checks your password

The software will clip your texts after 15 characters, but only 9 comfortably fit on the keypress-indicator circle.

All the colors have an alpha channel now. Please keep in mind that this was not intended when the program was originally written, so making thing transparent that weren't before can make it look strange.

Examples:

i3lock --insidevercolor=0000a0bf --insidewrongcolor=ff8000bf --insidecolor=ffffffbf --ringvercolor=0020ffff --ringwrongcolor=4040ffff --ringcolor=404090ff --textcolor=ffffffff --linecolor=aaaaaaff --keyhlcolor=30ccccff --bshlcolor=ff8000ff

Refer to the original README file for general information and libraries you need.
