Simon Stålenhag wallpaper scraper

I made this script for downloading Simon Stålenhag wallpapers from his website www.simonstalenhag.se and apply them as my wallpaper.

Personally i combined this script with a systemd timer to rotate the wallpaper every hour.

Requirements

• python3
• Gnome3 desktop or KDE Plasma 5

How to use

This will set the desktop wallpaper to a random image

python stalenhag.py

This will download all images on the website

python stalenhag.py all

This will start or stop the Systemd timer.

Filter for specific wallpapers

An example of a systemd timer and service can be found in the systemd folder.
