How to install a theme

[caioariede]

A theme in dpv is just a shell script. In order to use a theme, you have to pass the path of the theme script through the DPV_THEME environment variable.

Download a theme

Let's download the creator theme that is provided within the dpv repository. It's recommended to use the ~/.dpv/themes/ directory to store themes:

curl -sfSLO --create-dirs --output-dir ~/.dpv/themes/ https://raw.githubusercontent.com/caioariede/dpv/HEAD/themes/creator.sh

Needed configuration

Now that you have the theme downloaded, make sure you add the following line to your shell configuration file. It's recommended to put all dpv-related configuration together, so you can add it right after the dpv's internal-load-shell call:

DPV_THEME=~/.dpv/themes/creator.sh

Fin.
