# Zenbones **Zenbones** is a vim/neovim colorscheme designed to highlight code using contrasts and font variations. Colors are tasked only for other roles such as diagnostics, diffs, search matches. ## Usage Just apply the colorscheme as usual: ```vim set termguicolors colorscheme zenbones " light colorscheme zenflesh " dark colorscheme zenwritten " Zero hue and saturation version colorscheme neobones " https://neovim.io flavor colorscheme rosebones " Rosé Pine flavor - https://rosepinetheme.com colorscheme forestbones " Everforest flavor - https://github.com/sainnhe/everforest colorscheme nordbones " Nord flavor - https://www.nordtheme.com/docs/colors-and-palettes colorscheme tokyobones " Tokyo Night flavor - https://github.com/enkia/tokyo-night-vscode-theme#color-palette ``` It works pretty much the same as the first one but pretty handy when extending or customizing the colors to your likings. ## Configuration Configuration is only available for neovim. There are two ways to set configuration. First: ```vim let g:zenbones_solid_line_nr = v:true let g:zenbones_darken_comments = 45 ``` ```lua vim.g.zenbones_solid_line_nr = true vim.g.zenbones_darken_comments = 45 ``` Second way is to set configuration is to assign a dictionary to the prefix: ```vim let g:forestbones = #{ solid_line_nr: v:true, darken_comments: 45 } ``` ```lua vim.g.forestbones = { solid_line_nr = true, darken_comments = 45 } ``` **Notes**: Flavors accept their own configuration by replacing the prefix with the flavor name e.g. `g:rosebones_italic_comments`. | Option | Background | Default | Description | | :------------------------ | :--------- | :------ | :------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ | | lightness | light | `nil` | Change background colors lightness. Options: `'bright'`, `'dim'`. | | darkness | dark | `nil` | Change background colors darkness. Options: `'stark'`, `'warm'`. | | solid_vert_split | both | `false` | Solid \|hl-VertSplit\| background. | | solid_line_nr | both | `false` | Solid \|hl-LineNr\| background. | | solid_float_border | both | `false` | Make \|hl-FloatBorder\| have a more distinguishable background highlight. | | darken_noncurrent_window | light | `false` | Make non-current window background darker than _Normal_. | | lighten_noncurrent_window | dark | `false` | Make non-current window background lighter than _Normal_. | | italic_comments | both | `true` | Make comments italicize. | | darken_comments | light | `38` | Percentage to darken comments relative to Normal bg. See also \|lush-color-darken\|. | | lighten_comments | dark | `38` | Percentage to lighten comments relative to Normal bg. See also \|lush-color-lighten\|. | | darken_non_text | light | `25` | Percentage to darken \|hl-NonText\| relative to Normal bg. See also \|lush-color-darken\|. | | lighten_non_text | dark | `30` | Percentage to lighten \|hl-NonText\| relative to Normal bg. See also \|lush-color-darken\|. | | darken_line_nr | light | `33` | Percentage to darken \|hl-LineNr\| relative to Normal bg. See also \|lush-color-darken\|. | | lighten_line_nr | dark | `35` | Percentage to lighten \|hl-LineNr\| relative to Normal bg. See also \|lush-color-darken\|. | #### g:zenbones_compat Set to `1` to turn on compatibility mode. #### lightline ```vim let g:lightline = { \ 'colorscheme': 'zenbones', " or 'zenflesh' \ } ``` #### lualine ```lua options = { theme = 'zenbones' } -- or 'zenflesh' ``` ## Advanced Usage Zenbones is pretty extensible thanks to Lush. You can easily retrieve the colors in lua: ```lua local theme = require "zenbones" -- or zenflesh local palette = require "zenbones.palette" print(theme.StatusLine.bg.hex) print(palette.blossom.darken(20).hex) ``` Here's an example of how to extend/override some highlights. `lua/customize_zenbones.lua`: ```lua local function customize_zenbones() if vim.g.colors_name ~= "zenbones" then return end local lush = require "lush" local base = require "zenbones" -- Create some specs local specs = lush.parse(function() return { TabLine { base.TabLine, gui = "italic" }, -- setting gui to "italic" end) -- Apply specs using lush tool-chain lush.apply(lush.compile(specs)) end return customize_zenbones ``` And then somewhere in your `init.vim`: ```vim autocmd VimEnter,ColorScheme * lua require("customize_zenbones")() ``` See also [Lush's documentation](https://github.com/rktjmp/lush.nvim#advanced-usage) for more options. ### Create your own colorscheme You can ultimately create your own colorscheme that is based on zenbones by defining a palette and generating a specs. Best way to demonstrate this is through an example. Let's make a zenbones-flavored Gruvbox colorscheme called `gruvbones`. Let's define our [colorscheme](https://neovim.io/doc/user/syntax.html#:colorscheme) in `colors/gruvbones.lua`. It contains the following: ```lua local colors_name = "gruvbones" vim.g.colors_name = colors_name -- Required when defining a colorscheme local lush = require "lush" local hsluv = lush.hsluv -- Human-friendly hsl local util = require "zenbones.util" local bg = vim.opt.background:get() -- Define a palette. Use `palette_extend` to fill unspecified colors -- Based on https://github.com/gruvbox-community/gruvbox#palette local palette if bg == "light" then palette = util.palette_extend({ bg = hsluv "#fbf1c7", fg = hsluv "#3c3836", rose = hsluv "#9d0006", leaf = hsluv "#79740e", wood = hsluv "#b57614", water = hsluv "#076678", blossom = hsluv "#8f3f71", sky = hsluv "#427b58", }, bg) else palette = util.palette_extend({ bg = hsluv "#282828", fg = hsluv "#ebdbb2", rose = hsluv "#fb4934", leaf = hsluv "#b8bb26", wood = hsluv "#fabd2f", water = hsluv "#83a598", blossom = hsluv "#d3869b", sky = hsluv "#83c07c", }, bg) end -- Generate the lush specs using the generator util local generator = require "zenbones.specs" local base_specs = generator.generate(palette, bg, generator.get_global_config(colors_name, bg)) -- Optionally extend specs using Lush local specs = lush.extends({ base_specs }).with(function() return { Statement { base_specs.Statement, fg = palette.rose }, Special { fg = palette.water }, Type { fg = palette.sky, gui = "italic" }, } end) -- Pass the specs to lush to apply lush(specs) -- Optionally set term colors require("zenbones.term").apply_colors(palette) ``` And there you have it. Just call `colorscheme gruvbones` to use your new colorscheme. It respects `&background` and other configurations too. Also checkout the [neobones](../colors/neobones.lua) and [rosebones](../colors/rosebones.lua) colorscheme for a similar and complete example.
