Launcher - Rofi
https://github.com/DaveDavenport/rofi
Installation
yay -S rofi
Setup rofi as a dmenu replacement
Setup rofi as a dmenu replacement in ~/.i3/config
:
bindsym $mod+d exec --no-startup-id rofi -show run
Run sudo commands with rofi
https://github.com/DaveDavenport/rofi/issues/584#issuecomment-384555551
Use sudo -A
, that will open a rofi prompt to ask for the password.
For that to work, we need to add the following code to ~/.profile
:
export SUDO_ASKPASS=~/bin/askpass-rofi
The askpass
script is:
#!/bin/sh
# Take password prompt from STDIN, print password to STDOUT
# the sed piece just removes the colon from the provided
# prompt: rofi -p already gives us a colon
rofi -dmenu \
-password \
-no-fixed-num-lines \
-p "$(printf "$1" | sed s/://)"
Password Manager: Pass
https://www.passwordstore.org/
Install the pass package
yay -S pass
Initialize the password store as a git repository
pass git init
pass git remote add origin https://github.com/tdehaeze/pass.git

yay -S qtpass
Integration with Rofi
https://github.com/carnager/rofi-pass
Installation
yay -S rofi-pass
Then we can add a shortcut to rofi-pass
on i3 config.
Alternative
https://github.com/ibizaman/pass-clip
yay -S pass-clip
Integration with Browsers
This is explained here.
Integration with Git
https://github.com/languitar/pass-git-helper
Installation
yay -S pass-git-helper
Configuration
First, add the relation between repository addresses and entries in pass
. This is done in the following config file .config/pass-git-helper/git-pass-mapping.ini
:
[github.com*]
target=github.com/tdehaeze
Then, add the credential helper on the git configuration file ~/.gitconfig
and add the default username for the repositories adresses.
[credential]
helper = !pass-git-helper $@
[credential "https://github.com"]
username = tdehaeze
Integration with other programs
Integrate pass in other programs is usually very easy, here are few examples:
-
~/.msmtprc
:passwordeval "pass email/dehaeze.thomas@gmail.com"
-
~/.mbsyncrc
PassCmd "pass email/dehaeze.thomas@gmail.com"
Bookmark Manager: Buku
Installation
yay -S buku

chmod +x ~/bin/buku_run
Configuration
The configuration file is here: ~/.config/buku_run/config
Key binding with i3
Custom key binding in i3 config file ~/.i3/config
:
bindsym $mod+Shift+f exec --no-startup-id buku_run
Integration with qutebrowser
Synchronization with a git repository
The database is stored in ~/.local/share/buku/bookmarks.db
.
We initialize a git repository in this folder:
cd ~/.local/share/buku/bookmarks.db
git init
Then we create a script that will automatically add bookmarks.db
and push to some repository: ~/scripts/buku_git_push.sh
.
To automatically run the script every day, a systemd unit is used: ~/.config/systemd/user/bukugit.timer
and ~/.config/systemd/user/bukugit.service
systemctl start --user bukugit.timer
systemctl enable --user bukugit.timer
Import Bookmarks from Firefox and Chrome
From Firefox, export the bookmarks as html file.
Then import the bookmark file using buku -i bookmarks.html
.
This will add a tag with current date to all bookmarks imported.
To remove them, use: buku --replace '2018dec20' ''
Web Interface
Run:
bukuserver run --host 127.0.0.1 --port 5001
And then browse to 127.0.0.1:5001
.

TODO Theme manager
The idea would be to have a command that changes the theme of all the system.
There would be at least one light and one dark theme. Applications that could change:
- terminal: https://github.com/khamer/base16-termite. TODO: this does not seems to work. Some is takken from config of termite, some from xresources. Also when reload the terminal is does not make the colors well: https://github.com/thestinger/termite/issues/273
It seems the color is due to this part of the script. Should then source this file somehow.
BASE16_SHELL="$HOME/.base16-manager/chriskempson/base16-shell/"
[ -n "$PS1" ] && \
[ -s "$BASE16_SHELL/profile_helper.sh" ] && \
eval "$("$BASE16_SHELL/profile_helper.sh")"
- shell: https://github.com/chriskempson/base16-shell
- ranger: uses colors of the shell
- vim: https://github.com/chriskempson/base16-vim
- emacs: https://github.com/belak/base16-emacs
- zathura: https://github.com/nicodebo/base16-zathura
- neomutt: https://github.com/josephholsten/base16-mutt
- ncmpcpp: uses colors of terminal (termite) defined in
~/.config/termite/config
- polybar: uses colors of Xresources:
~/.Xressources.d/colors
- dunst: https://github.com/khamer/base16-dunst
- fzf: https://github.com/nicodebo/base16-fzf
- i3: https://github.com/khamer/base16-i3
- qutebrowser: https://github.com/theova/base16-qutebrowser
- rofi: https://gitlab.com/0xdec/base16-rofi
- background: use custom script
- tmux
- GUI file manager?
Possible theme managers:
TODO Theme script
~/bin/theme
TODO Base16
https://github.com/chriskempson/base16 http://chriskempson.com/projects/base16/ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QcOxU1sOOuw
Base16 Philosophy
Define colors according to rules: http://chriskempson.com/projects/base16/ Then we can use these colors multiple applications.
Base16-shell
https://github.com/chriskempson/base16-shell
This changes the shell colors. This should be added to ~/.bashrc
:
# Base16 Shell
BASE16_SHELL="$HOME/.config/base16-shell/"
[ -n "$PS1" ] && \
[ -s "$BASE16_SHELL/profile_helper.sh" ] && \
eval "$("$BASE16_SHELL/profile_helper.sh")"
