Installation

From pip:

$pip install --upgrade iterm-theme-generator

Usage

To generate a color set from an image:

$ iterm_theme_generator <path-to-image> --parent <your-profile>

This will generate colors and create iTerm2 profile in its DynamicProfiles directory. This theme profile will inherit profile you mention with –parent option. Go to the profiles tab and select this new profile as default and restart iTerm. Now, when you change theme again iTerm will load it dynamically, so no need to restart again.

Options:

usage: iTerm2 Theme Generator [-h] [--parent PROFILE] [--out FILE]
                              [--tiled TILED] [--blend BLEND]
                              [--transparency VALUE] [--contrast CONTRAST]
                              [--saturation-min MIN] [--saturation-max MAX]
                              [--brightness-min MIN] [--brightness-max MAX]

Features

Some iTerm features are exposed through the generator such as tiling, blending, contrast.

The generator provides rudimentary color control, including:

• saturation min/max bound

• brightness min/max bound

• rotation and reversion of the generated color set

• color inversion

Using these features will allow you to capture an awesome color set that will fit your background image neatly.
