kandi X-RAY | pywal Summary
Generate and change color-schemes on the fly. Pywal is a tool that generates a color palette from the dominant colors in an image. It then applies the colors system-wide and on-the-fly in all of your favourite programs. There are currently 5 supported color generation backends, each providing a different palette of colors from each image. You're bound to find an appealing color-scheme. Pywal also supports predefined themes and has over 250 themes built-in. You can also create your own theme files to share with others. The goal of Pywal was to be as out of the way as possible. It doesn't modify any of your existing configuration files. Instead it works around them and provides tools to integrate your system as you see fit. Terminal emulators and TTYs have their color-schemes updated in real-time with no delay. With minimal configuration this functionality can be extended to almost anything running on your system.

QUESTION
In my i3 config file I have many scripts that I want to run when i3 starts, including a script to select a wallpaper and another to run polybar. Both of these scripts worked perfectly for more than a year, but suddenly they started behaving strangely: sometimes none of them run, sometimes just one of them run and sometimes only half of the script runs (wtf).
What I mean by only running half of the script is that, for example, polybar might kill all instances of polybar (first line) but not run my bar (second line), or the wal script might change the colors as intended, but not set the wallpaper.
All other scripts in the config run perfectly fine, except for these two. Running them individually in the terminal always works.
This is a part of .config/i3/config:
...ANSWER
Answered 2021-Feb-08 at 13:16If, as you say, only half the script runs. Most likely, the parts that apparently don't run, they do actually run, but fail for some reason and you don't see the effect those commands normally have.
Programs generally write some kind of error messages in these cases. So this is mostly a debugging issue.
For polybar, you already redirect the output to a logfile at /tmp/polybar1.log
. This file will most likely contain information about why the bar couldn't start.
I suggest you do the same for your pywal script to see why it fails to set the wallpaper.
