right-mode.nvim

The Problem

☀️ You're coding during the day and don't want to max out the brightness of your screen and drain your battery just to see the code you are writing, so you use a light colorscheme.

🌙 During the night, a light colorscheme is too bright so you change back to a night-themed colorscheme, but manually switching is annoying!

The Solution

• right-mode.nvim is the best of light mode and night mode, switching your colorscheme for you based on the time of day!
• As a bonus, since there are so many beautiful colorschemes, it will randomize the colorscheme for day and night so you don't have to choose just one theme to use!

Installation

lazy.nvim

{
    "rohitpoduval1/right-mode.nvim",
    config = function()
        require("right-mode").setup({
            light_themes = { },
            dark_themes = { },
            day_start = 8, -- Light theme starting from 8 AM
            night_start = 20, -- Dark theme starting from 8 PM
        })
    end,
}

packer.nvim

use {
  "rohitpoduval1/right-mode",
  config = function()
    require("right-mode").setup({
        light_themes = { },
        dark_themes = { },
        day_start = 8, -- Light theme starting from 8 AM
        night_start = 20, -- Dark theme starting from 8 PM
    })
  end
}

Setup

It is highly recommended to call right-mode.setup() for the best experience, although the plugin will still work without it.

Default Configuration

require("right-mode").setup({
    light_themes = { }, -- Your desired colorschemes as strings separated by commas
    dark_themes = { },
    day_start = 8, -- Light theme starting from 8 AM
    night_start = 20, -- Dark theme starting from 8 PM
})

Example Configuration

require("right-mode").setup({
    light_themes = { "kanagawa-lotus", "catppuccin-latte" },
    dark_themes = { "kanagawa-dragon" },
    day_start = 8, -- Light theme starting from 8 AM
    night_start = 20, -- Dark theme starting from 8 PM
})

• right-mode will randomize from the given list of installed colorschemes starting light mode from day_start and starting night mode from night_start, both of which are in a 24 hour time format.
• If the arguments for light_themes and dark_themes are empty, right-mode will randomize from the list of installed colorschemes. (It is possible to have just 1 colorscheme in light_themes or dark_themes if you prefer)
