[Feature Request] Global background opacity matugen variable

[BinaryQuantumSoul]

There are multiple softwares (Zed, Zen, Zathura for example) that allow native transparent background.
Unlike softwares like Kitty, which has a background_opacity setting, these require to use an alpha channel on colors.

Right now, I have to use the set_alpha filter with some hardcoded opacity. Ideally, the matugen color scheme would contain an opacity variable that could be used in all those scenarios and would be set to 1.0 as default.
That way, there would be no need to manually hardcode all opacity values and it would be very easy to change the opacity quickly or to generate some transparent and some opaque themes.

Should work, leaving this open if you need anything more

I am not sure how do I use this ?

[InioX]

It isn't released yet but for now compile from source and use the --opacity flag. You can see the allowed values with --help

I assume these Stderr:s are erroneous?

[mewoocat]

Also is there any way to access just the opacity value by itself?

It could be useful to do something like

BackgroundAlternate={{colors.primary_container.default.hex_alpha}},{{ colors.primary_container.default.red }},{{ colors.primary_container.default.green }},{{ colors.<OPACITY> }}

for color formats like Red,Blue,Green,Alpha

Isn't using alpha just the same as opacity?

I made them only show up if the stderr or stdout aren't empty in 042efbe

Yes but Im not seeing a way to retrieve just the opacity/alpha value in a template. Unless Im missing something. The color format Im trying to generate is a 0-255 rgb like red,green,blue,opacity (without an "rgb" prefix).

Wont this pollute the output when exporting the colors to a json file?

No because if you use the --json flag you also have to use --quiet with it. The outputs of commands dont show.
