# Waybar theme switcher for home manager

I made this basic script for changing my home manager theme and mode settings:

echo theme = $1
echo mode = $2
sed -i "s/THEME\ =\ ".*";/THEME\ =\ \"${1}\";/" $HOME/.config/home-manager/home.nix
sed -i "s/MODE\ =\ ".*";/MODE\ =\ \"${2}\";/" $HOME/.config/home-manager/home.nix
home-manager switch
which I can run like
./theme-switcher.sh gruvbox dark
then it writes the theme to my home manager configuration and reloads home manager. I can then have several waybar modules like such:
"custom/gruvbox" = {
on-click = "$HOME/scripts/theme-switcher.sh gruvbox ${MODE}";
format = "";
};
Which I can easily click to change themes
Pretty basic, but I thought I'd share, also it takes about 10 seconds to change theme so it's not quite instant gratification.
