I think the problem is the -a
option which I was still using from when I had URxvt. Then pywal tried to set the background of alacritty to '[94]#0d1018' instead of '#0d1018'. I know that -a
should only work with URxvt but I didn't expect it to break for other terminals. Is this expected behaviour?
Terminal solution doesn't work for me. Instead I just created a new template and imported it. Add
import:
- ~/.cache/wal/colors-alacritty.yml
to your alacritty.yml and create a new template file ~/.config/wal/templates/colors-alacritty.yml. Here's my template file. The only thing is, if you omit alpha when setting a new colorscheme, the terminal background will be transparent.
background_opacity: 0.{alpha}
# Colors (Gruvbox dark)
colors:
primary:
background: '{background}'
foreground: '{foreground}'
cursor:
text: CellForeground
cursor: '{cursor}'
bright:
black: '{color0}'
red: '{color1}'
green: '{color2}'
yellow: '{color3}'
blue: '{color4}'
magenta: '{color5}'
cyan: '{color6}'
white: '{color7}'
normal:
black: '{color8}'
red: '{color9}'
green: '{color10}'
yellow: '{color11}'
blue: '{color12}'
magenta: '{color13}'
cyan: '{color14}'
white: '{color15}'

It's in pywal documentation https://github.com/dylanaraps/pywal/wiki/User-Template-Files
I use alacritty as a terminal and all colors in alacritty are correctly sourced when I run
wal
, except for the background which stays the same color throughout. Runningcat ~/.cache/wal/sequences
also doesn't change the background. I'm using i3 as window manager and have no color settings in my alacritty config. Is this an issue from pywal or an issue from alacritty?
