Theme your NixOS configuration consistently.
Firstly, add the flake to your inputs. You don't need to pin anything since it doesn't depend on anything.
Then you can use any theme you'd like by selecting an attribute, like themes.gruvbox-dark-hard.
Then you can select a color by using base16 attributes, like themes.gruvbox-dark-hard.base0A, base00, base06 etc.
Or you can make your own theme:
let
myTheme = themes.custom {
name = "My Awesome Theme";
author = "RGBCube";
base00 = "000000";
# ...
};
in {}If you want to create your own theme based on an included theme, you can do this:
let
myTheme = themes.custom (themes.raw.tango // {
base00 = "2E3436"; # Overriding the background color...
accent = themes.raw.tango.base0A; # Custom properties also work!
});
in {}You can also use the visualize.nu script to visualize any theme in the terminal:
./visualize.nu themes/chalk.nixAll themes
3024 (Hey, if you want to use this theme, you'll have to do `themes."3024"`)

Themes have 2 special color properties, which are with0x and withHashtag.
This will prefix every color with the thing you selected.
let
normal = themes.windows-95.base00; # => 000000
with0x = themes.windows-95.with0x.base00; # => 0x000000
wHashtag = themes.windows-95.withHashtag.base00; # => #000000
in {}Themes also have templates, which generate templates with the color scheme.
You can use a template by doing themes.gruvboxbox-dark-hard.<template-name>.
There are instructions on how to use these in the file they are located. Check templates/<template>.nix

Here is a minimal usage example:
{
description = "Dankest NixOS configuration.";
inputs = {
nixpkgs = {
url = "github:NixOS/nixpkgs/nixos-unstable";
};
homeManager = {
url = "github:nix-community/home-manager";
inputs.nixpkgs.follows = "nixpkgs";
};
themes = {
url = "github:RGBCube/ThemeNix";
};
};
outputs = { nixpkgs, themes, ... }: let
pkgs = import nixpkgs { system = "x86_64-linux"; };
theme = themes.tango;
in {
nixosConfigurations.myhost = nixpkgs.lib.nixosSystem {
system = "x86_64-linux";
modules = [
homeManager.nixosModules.default
{
home-manager.users.myuser = {
programs.kitty.settings = with theme.withHashtag; {
color0 = base00;
color1 = base08;
color2 = base0B;
color3 = base0A;
color4 = base0D;
color5 = base0E;
color6 = base0C;
color7 = base05;
color8 = base03;
color9 = base08;
color10 = base0B;
color11 = base0A;
color12 = base0D;
color13 = base0E;
color14 = base0C;
color15 = base07;
color16 = base09;
color17 = base0F;
color18 = base01;
color19 = base02;
color20 = base04;
color21 = base06;
};
# Using templates??? Wow, that's so cool!
programs.bat = {
config.theme = "base16";
themes.base16.src = pkgs.writeText "base16.tmTheme" theme.tmTheme;
};
};
}
];
};
}
