MELI-THEMES(5)

NAME
meli-themes - themes for the meli(1) terminal e-mail client

SYNOPSIS
meli comes with two themes, dark (default) and light.

Custom themes are defined as lists of key-values in the configuration files:
•   $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/meli/config.toml
•   $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/meli/themes/*.toml

The application theme is defined in the configuration as follows:

    [terminal]
    theme = "dark"

DESCRIPTION
Themes for meli are described in the configuration language TOML, as they are key-value tables defined in the TERMINAL section of the configuration file. Each key defines the semantic location of the theme attribute within the application. For example, mail.listing.compact.* keys are settings for the compact mail listing style. A setting contains three fields: fg for foreground color, bg for background color, and attrs for text attribute.

    "widget.key.label" = { fg = "Default", bg = "Default", attrs = "Default" }

Each field contains a value, which may be either a color/attribute, a link (key name) or a valid alias. An alias is a string starting with the "$" character and must be declared in advance in the color_aliases or attr_aliases fields of a theme. An alias' value can be any valid value, including links and other aliases, as long as they are valid. In the case of a link the setting's real value depends on the value of the referred key. This allows for defaults within a group of associated values. Cyclic references in a theme results in an error:

    spooky theme contains a cycle: fg: mail.listing.compact.even -> mail.listing.compact.highlighted -> mail.listing.compact.odd -> mail.listing.compact.even

Two themes are included by default, `light` and `dark`.

EXAMPLES
Specific settings from already defined themes can be overwritten:

    [terminal]
    theme = "dark"

    [terminal.themes.dark]
    "mail.sidebar_highlighted_account" = { bg = "#ff4529" }
    "mail.listing.attachment_flag" = { fg = "#ff4529" }
    "mail.view.headers" = { fg = "30" }
    "mail.view.body" = {fg = "HotPink3", bg = "LightSalmon1"}
    # Linked value keys can be whatever key:
    "mail.listing.compact.even_unseen" = { bg = "mail.sidebar_highlighted_account" }
    # Linked color value keys can optionally refer to another field:
    "mail.listing.compact.odd_unseen" = { bg = "mail.sidebar_highlighted_account.fg" }

    # define new theme. Undefined settings will inherit from the default "dark" theme.
    [terminal.themes."hunter2"]
    color_aliases= { "Jebediah" = "#b4da55" }
    "mail.listing.tag_default" = { fg = "$Jebediah" }
    "mail.view.headers" = { fg = "White", bg = "Black" }

CUSTOM THEMES
Custom themes can be included in your configuration files or be saved independently in your $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/meli/themes/ directory as TOML files. To start creating a theme right away, you can begin by editing the default theme keys and values:

    meli print-default-theme > ~/.config/meli/themes/new_theme.toml

new_theme.toml will now include all keys and values of the "dark" theme.

    meli print-loaded-themes

will print all loaded themes with the links resolved.

VALID ATTRIBUTE VALUES
Case-sensitive.
•   "Default"
•   "Bold"
•   "Dim"
•   "Italics"
•   "Underline"
•   "Blink"
•   "Reverse"
•   "Hidden"
•   Any combo of the above separated by a bitwise XOR "|" eg "Dim | Italics"

VALID COLOR VALUES
Color values are of type String with the following valid contents:
•   "Default" is the terminal default. (Case-sensitive)
•   Hex triplet e.g. #FFFFFF for RGB colors. Three character shorthand is also valid, e.g. #09c → #0099cc (Case-insensitive)
•   0-255 byte for 256 colors.
•   xterm(1) name but with some modifications (for a full table see COLOR NAMES addendum) (Case-sensitive)

NO COLOR
To completely disable ANSI colors, there are two options:
•   Set the use_color option (section terminal ) to false, which is true by default.
•   The NO_COLOR environmental variable, when present (regardless of its value), prevents the addition of ANSI color. When the configuration value use_color is explicitly set to true by the user, NO_COLOR is ignored.

In this mode, cursor locations (i.e., currently selected entries/items) will use the "reverse video" ANSI attribute to invert the terminal's default foreground/background colors.
