[Question] Getting a error for base16-qutebrowser

[BlueInGreen68]

What version of tinty are you using?

tinty 0.18.0

Hi! Thanks for the cool project. I'm having a little trouble applying tinty for qutebrowser.

For example, I'm trying to put a base16-3024 circuit and it's in the base16-qutebrowser repository, in the default folder. When trying to change the scheme tinty gives the following error:

Theme does not exists for base16-qutebrowser in /home/blueingreen68/.local/share/tinted-theming/tinty/repos/base16-qutebrowser/themes. Try running `tinty update` or submit an issue on https://github.com/tinted-theming/tinty

Sway in turn changes the subject successfully.

My ~/.config/tinted-theming/tinty/config.toml file:

# Global settings
shell = "sh -c '{}'"
default-scheme = "base16-mocha"

# Item configurations
[[items]]
path = "https://github.com/tinted-theming/base16-qutebrowser"
name = "base16-qutebrowser"
themes-dir = "themes"
hook = "cp -f %f ~/.config/qutebrowser/config.d/colorscheme.py"

[[items]]
path = "https://github.com/rkubosz/base16-sway"
name = "base16-sway"
themes-dir = "themes"
hook = "cp -f %f ~/.config/sway/config.d/colorscheme && swaymsg reload"

Hello 😄 The theme path in base16-qutebrowser is slightly different since the themes are in a directory within the themes/ directory. On top of that base16-qutebrowser has a different "file extension". Tinty expects <scheme-system>-<scheme-name>.<extension>, but qutebrowser has <scheme-system>-<scheme-name>.config.<extension> so we need to tell tinty to use .config.py as the extension. I've tested the config below and it should work:

[[items]]
path = "https://github.com/tinted-theming/base16-qutebrowser"
name = "base16-qutebrowser"
themes-dir = "themes/default"
hook = "cp -f %f ~/.config/qutebrowser/config.d/colorscheme.py"
theme-file-extension = ".config.py"

I'll add this to the USAGE.md file for anyone trying to get this to work in future.

Note: I've chosen themes/default as the themes-dir, but you might want themes/minimal since that's the other set of themes base16-qutebrowser supports.

Edit: Added it https://github.com/tinted-theming/tinty/blob/main/USAGE.md#qutebrowser

Thank you for the clarification. It's all working now.
