Installation
See INSTALL.md
Configuration & Theming
The config file can be found at $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/mirage/settings.json,
or ~/.config/mirage/settings.json.
For Flatpak users, this will be
~/.var/app/io.github.mirukana.mirage/config/mirage instead.
The config folder where accounts.json and settings.json is located can be
overriden by setting the MIRAGE_CONFIG_DIR
environment variable.
The user data folder where themes, encryption data and interface states
are saved can be overriden with MIRAGE_DATA_DIR
.
The cache folder where downloaded files and thumbnails are saved can be
overriden with MIRAGE_CACHE_DIR
.
The theme
setting can be:
- The filename of a built-in theme (
Midnight.qpl
orGlass.qpl
) - The filename of a custom theme at
$XDG_DATA_HOME/mirage/themes, ~/.local/share/mirage/themes,
or ~/.var/app/io.github.mirukana.mirage/data/mirage/themes (Flatpak)
A default theme from this repository can be copied to use as a base and edit,
for example:
cp mirage/src/themes/Midnight.qpl \
"${XDG_DATA_HOME:-$HOME/.local/share}/mirage/themes/MyTheme.qpl"
Or for Flatpak users:
cp mirage/src/themes/Midnight.qpl \
~/.var/app/io.github.mirukana.mirage/data/mirage/themes/MyTheme.qpl
The config setting theme
would need to be set to MyTheme.qpl
in this case.
Theme files are nested-by-indentations sections of properties and values.
Properties are declared as <type> <name>: <value>
.
Values can be any JavaScript (ECMAScript 7) expressions.
Most of the properties are of type color
.
Their values, if not just refering to another property,
can be expressed with a:
- SVG/CSS color name
string, e.g."blue"
- Hexadecimal code string, e.g.
"#fff"
or"#cc0000"
- RGBA value, using the
Qt.rgba(0-1, 0-1, 0-1, 0-1)
function - HSLA value, using the
Qt.hsla(0-1, 0-1, 0-1, 0-1)
function - HSVA value, using the
Qt.hsva(0-1, 0-1, 0-1, 0-1)
function - HSLUV value, using the
hsluv(0-360, 0-100, 0-100, 0-1)
function. This is the prefered method
used throughout the default theme files
(why? see this and
that)
If you just want to change the background picture,
or use a gradient/simple color instead, search for the ui:
section in your
text editor.
With Alt+Shift+R
by default, the config and theme can be reloaded without
restarting the app.
Warnings:
- API currently unstable: theme properties are often renamed, added or deleted.
- The file format for both config and themes will soon change
- The current file format forces all theme to have all properties
defined, instead of being able to only specify the ones to override from the
default theme.
GUI settings will also be implemented in the future.
