That's it, These themes are now installed on your system.

Note : These themes are like an ecosystem, everything here is connected with each other in some way. So... before modifying anything by your own, make sure you know what you are doing.

Launch the bar

To launch the bar with the selected theme, Just...

Open the terminal and enter the following command -

$ bash ~/.config/polybar/launch.sh

Usage : launch.sh --theme

Available Themes :
--blocks    --colorblocks    --cuts      --docky
--forest    --grayblocks     --hack      --material
--panels    --pwidgets       --shades    --shapes

Now, select your theme and launch the bar -

$ bash ~/.config/polybar/launch.sh --hack

You can add the same command to your WM autostart file to launch the bar on login. For example, to launch the bar at startup on openbox, add following lines in $HOME/.config/openbox/autostart -

## Launch Polybar
bash ~/.config/polybar/launch.sh --cuts

Use the scripts

Almost every theme has pywal and random color support added to them. If you want to use the bar with pywal, just execute the pywal.sh script with the path of the wallpaper or wallpapers directory. eg - If you're using material theme...

$ bash ~/.config/polybar/material/scripts/pywal.sh /path/to/wallpaper

If you want to use random colors for your bar, just execute random.sh script -

$ bash ~/.config/polybar/material/scripts/random.sh

You can add these lines, before the launch command in your WM startup file if you want to use pywal or random color for your bar every time you login. eg - in Openbox's autostart file...

## Launch Polybar with random wallpaper
bash ~/.config/polybar/material/scripts/pywal.sh /path/to/wallpaper_dir
bash ~/.config/polybar/launch.sh --material
