hyprpaper is a fast, IPC-controlled wallpaper utility for hyprland.

|
|
|
|
## Configuration
|
|
|
|
The config file is located at `~/.config/hypr/hyprpaper.conf`. It is not required.
|
|
|
|
Configuration is done via `preload`s, which _load_ an image into memory.
|
|
Then, you use `wallpaper` keywords to apply the preloaded image to your
|
|
monitor(s):
|
|
|
|
```ini
|
|
preload = /home/me/amongus.png
|
|
wallpaper = DP-1,/home/me/amongus.png
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
For wallpaper keywords:
|
|
- all paths have to be absolute (or start with `~`)
|
|
- leaving the first parameter (monitor) empty will act as a wildcard
|
|
- adding `contain:` before the path (e.g. `contain:/home/me/amongus.png`) will adjust the fitting algorithm to contain.
|
|
|
|
You can also `unload` preloaded images to free up memory. `unload all` and `unload unused` are a thing too.
|
|
|
|
To run hyprpaper at startup edit `hyprland.conf` and add:
|
|
`exec-once = hyprpaper`.
|
|
|
|
### Misc options
|
|
| variable | description | type | default |
|
|
| -- | -- | -- | -- |
|
|
| splash | enable rendering of the hyprland splash over the wallpaper | bool | false |
|
|
| splash_offset | how far (in % of height) up should the splash be displayed | float | 2.0 |
|
|
| ipc | whether to enable IPC | bool | true |
|
|
|
|
## IPC
|
|
|
|
hyprpaper supports IPC via `hyprctl`. Every dispatcher mentioned in [Configuration](#Configuration)
|
|
can be called with `hyprctl hyprpaper <dispatcher> <arg(s)>`.
|
|
|
|
Additionally, you can get some info about the current state of hyprpaper with `listloaded` and `listactive`.
|
|
|
|
Examples:
|
|
```sh
|
|
hyprctl hyprpaper preload "~/Pictures/myepicpng.png"
|
|
hyprctl hyprpaper wallpaper "DP-1,~/Pictures/myepicpng.png"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
hyprctl hyprpaper listloaded
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Please note all paths have to be absolute (or start with `~`).
