Emacs Themes

This is the source code for the Emacs Themes Gallery site.

Contribute

To add a new theme, you have to create at least 4 files:

1. A .json file which is the actual recipe of the theme;
2. A small .png file which is the image showing on the front and index page;
3. At least 1 large .png image, which will be listed on the theme page;
4. The source code of the theme;

Add the small .png file

Add a 400x200 .png file to /root/assets/imgs-small directory. This will be the small image showing on the front page or the index page. You will have to add this name to the recipe file.

Add the large .png files

Add whatever number of .png (screenshots) files you want to /root/assets/imgs directory. These will show on the theme page. You will have to add this name to the recipe file.

Add the source code (.el) file

Add a .el file to /root/assets/local-src directory. You can name it as you like but I strongly encourage to use a name of the form: [theme-name]-theme-source-code.el. You will have to add this name to the recipe file.

Add the recipe(.json) file

Add a .json file to /recipes directory. You can name it as you like but I strongly encourage to name it as your theme. The file must have this structure:

  {
    "name": "[Theme Name]",
    "description": "[Some description]",
    "remoteSrc": "[Source code source]",
    "localSrc": ".\/assets\/local-src\/[name of the source code file from /root/assets/local-src]",
    "author": "[Name of the Author/s]",
    "largeImgs": [
        ".\/assets\/imgs\/[large-img1-name]",
        ".\/assets\/imgs\/[large-img2-name]",
    ],
    "tags": [
        "[tag1]",
        "[tag2]",
    ],
    "available": "[true or false (depending on whether the theme is submitted to MELPA)] ",
    "smallImg": ".\/assets\/imgs-small\/[small-img-name]"
}

This is an example on how a regular recipe file looks like:

{
    "name": "Solarized Themes",
    "description": "Solarized for Emacs is an Emacs port of the Solarized theme for vim, developed by Ethan Schoonover.",
    "remoteSrc": "https:\/\/github.com\/bbatsov\/solarized-emacs",
    "localSrc": ".\/assets\/local-src\/solarized-themes-source-code.el",
    "author": "Bozhidar Batsov & Thomas Fr\u00f6ssman",
    "largeImgs": [
        ".\/assets\/imgs\/solarized-dark.png",
        ".\/assets\/imgs\/solarized-dark-bis.png",
        ".\/assets\/imgs\/solarized-light.png",
        ".\/assets\/imgs\/solarized-light-bis.png"
    ],
    "tags": [
        "dark",
        "emacs 23",
        "light",

        "solarized"
    ],
    "available": true,
    "smallImg": ".\/assets\/imgs-small\/solarized-dark.png"
