Omarchy Theme Sync

Automatically updates your configuration files when your Omarchy theme changes.

This script watches your current Omarchy theme for changes and dynamically replaces color placeholders in your configuration files with the actual values from the theme.

• Watches ~/.config/omarchy/current/theme/ for updates.
• Replaces ${var_name} placeholders in your app configuration files with the corresponding values from colors.toml.
• Copies the processed configuration files to the destination specified in each app’s dir file.

Directory Structure

~/.config/omarchy/current/theme/        # Active theme folder
~/.config/omarchy-theme-sync/
└─ <app_name>/
    ├─ <config_files>                # Files with ${var_name} placeholders
    └─ dir                           # File containing the actual destination path

• colors.toml contains the theme variables (e.g., foreground = "#a9b1d6").
• Each app folder in ~/.config/omarchy-theme-sync/ must have a dir file specifying the destination path.
• Placeholders like ${foreground} in the configuration files will be replaced with the actual values from colors.toml.

Example config

~/.config/omarchy-theme-sync/zen-cal/dir
    $HOME/.config/zen-cal
~/.config/omarchy-theme-sync/zen-cal/zen-cal.conf
    # Zen-Cal color configuration
    today      = ${selection_background}
    today_text = ${selection_foreground}
    headings   = ${accent}
    text       = ${foreground}
    weekends   = ${color2}

Usage

Installation

1. Run the installer

chmod +x ./install.sh
./install.sh

Uninstallation

chmod +x ./uninstall.sh
./uninstall.sh

How It Works

1. Detects the active color scheme (catppuccin-latte for light or catppuccin-mocha for dark) if colors.toml is missing.
2. Iterates over all subdirectories in the sync folder (~/.config/omarchy-theme-sync/).
3. Uses a temporary directory for processing to avoid overwriting files during replacement.
4. Recursively replaces all ${var_name} placeholders with values from colors.toml.
5. Moves the processed files to the existing destination directory specified in the dir file.

Notes

• Only directories with a dir file are processed.
• If the destination path does not exist, the folder is skipped.
• Changes in the theme folder are automatically applied to your configurations in real-time.
