How do i use it?

Dependencies

• one of the dependencies of this program is mpvpaper if you would like to be able to have video wallpapers
• another dependency is hyprpaper

Installation

• download the program with pip - pypi project site

pip install hyprwallpaper

• make sure your config files are located in /home/your username/.config/hypr/

python3 -m hyprwallpaper

• just follow the simple prompts given in the program
• if you have a GUI file manager like Dolphin, you can just drag and drop the picture you want as your wallpaper into the terminal, which will write out the entire path of the image automatically (on most terminals, at least)
• after you are done you can log out and back in to see yrou changes. logging out is usually down with Ctrl+m in hyprland

• ensures wallpaper program runs in the background

message

• this is a small beginner project I made for myself to make switching between my wallpapers faster. I am aware that it is very elementary and can use a lot more improvements, which I hope to add in the future as I become better at programming
• any suggestions are welcome :) I will try my best to address them
