Solarized is a carefully designed selective contrast colorscheme with dual
|
||
|
|
light and dark modes that runs in both GUI, 256 and 16 color modes.
|
||
|

0. Install *solarized-install*
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Note: I recommend using Tim Pope's pathogen plugin to install this
|
||
|
|
colorscheme. See https://github.com/tpope/vim-pathogen . If you've installed
|
||
|
|
pathogen properly you can install Solarized with the following commands,
|
||
|
|
followed by the .vimrc configuration below.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
$ cd ~/.vim/bundle
|
||
|
|
$ git clone https://github.com/altercation/vim-colors-solarized.git
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If you aren't using pathogen, you can use the following three steps to install
|
||
|
|
Solarized:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
1. Download the solarized distribution (available on the homepage above)
|
||
|
|
and unarchive the file.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
2. Move `solarized.vim` to your `.vim/colors` directory.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
3. Move each of the files in each subdirectories to the corresponding .vim
|
||
|
|
subdirectory (e.g. autoload/togglebg.vim goes into your .vim/autoload
|
||
|
|
directory as .vim/autoload/togglebg.vim).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
After installation, place the following lines in your .vimrc:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
syntax enable
|
||
|
|
set background=dark
|
||
|
|
colorscheme solarized
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
or, for the light background mode of Solarized:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
syntax enable
|
||
|
|
set background=light
|
||
|
|
colorscheme solarized
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
==============================================================================
|
||
|
|
1. Solarized Menu *solarized-menu*
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Solarized makes available a menu when used in Vim GUI mode (gvim, macvim).
|
||
|
|
This menu includes many of the options detailed below so that you can test out
|
||
|
|
different values quickly without modifying your .vimrc file. If you wish to
|
||
|
|
turn off this menu permanently, simply place the following line in your .vimrc
|
||
|
|
above the "colorscheme solarized" line.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
let g:solarized_menu=0
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
==============================================================================
|
||
|
|
2. Toggle Background *solarized-togglebg*
|
||
|
|
*toggle-bg* *togglebg*
|
||
|
|
*toggle-background*
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Solarized comes with Toggle Background, a simple plugin to switch between
|
||
|
|
light and dark background modes and reset the colorscheme. This is most useful
|
||
|
|
for colorschemes that support both light and dark modes and in terminals or
|
||
|
|
gui vim windows where the background will be properly set.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Toggle Background can be accessed by:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* the Solarized menu (in Vim gui mode)
|
||
|
|
* the Window menu (in Vim gui mode, even if the Solarized menu is off)
|
||
|
|
* the "yin/yang" toolbar button (in Vim gui mode)
|
||
|
|
* the default mapping of <F5>
|
||
|
|
* custom key mapping you set in your .vimrc (see below)
|
||
|
|
* command line via ":ToggleBG" (no quotes)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Toggle Background starts with a default mapping to function key <F5>. If you
|
||
|
|
are already using this in a mapping, Toggle Background will not map itself to
|
||
|
|
a default and you will have to map it manually in your .vimrc file, or
|
||
|
|
remove/change your existing <F5> mapping to another value. To customize the
|
||
|
|
keyboard mapping in your .vimrc file, use the following line, changing the
|
||
|
|
"<F5>" value to the key or key combination you wish to use:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
call togglebg#map("<F5>")
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Note that you'll want to use a single function key or equivalent if you want
|
||
|
|
the plugin to work in all modes (normal, insert, visual).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
When using the plugin during normal, visual, or insert mode, there should be
|
||
|
|
no interruption in workflow. However, if you activate the plugin during
|
||
|
|
REPLACE mode, you will switch to standard insert mode (you will leave the
|
||
|
|
overwrite replace mode).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
==============================================================================
|
||

|
3. Solarized Terminal Issues *solarized-term*
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If you are going to use Solarized in Terminal mode (i.e. not in a GUI version
|
||
|
|
like gvim or macvim), **please please please** consider setting your terminal
|
||
|
|
emulator's colorscheme to used the Solarized palette. I've included palettes
|
||
|
|
for some popular terminal emulator as well as Xdefaults in the official
|
||
|
|
Solarized download available from the Solarized homepage listed at the top of
|
||
|
|
this help document. If you use Solarized *without* these colors, Solarized
|
||
|
|
will need to be told to degrade its colorscheme to a set compatible with the
|
||
|
|
limited 256 terminal palette (whereas by using the terminal's 16 ansi color
|
||
|
|
values, you can set the correct, specific values for the Solarized palette).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If you do use the custom terminal colors, solarized.vim should work out of
|
||
|
|
the box for you. If you are using a terminal emulator that supports 256
|
||
|
|
colors and don't want to use the custom Solarized terminal colors, you will
|
||
|
|
need to use the degraded 256 colorscheme. To do so, simply add the following
|
||
|
|
line *before* the `colorschem solarized` line:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
let g:solarized_termcolors=256
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Again, I recommend just changing your terminal colors to Solarized values
|
||
|
|
either manually or via one of the many terminal schemes available for import.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
==============================================================================
|
||
|
|
4. Solarized Options *solarized-options*
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
AUTOGENERATE OPTIONS
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
You can easily modify and experiment with Solarized display options using the
|
||
|
|
Solarized menu when using Vim in gui mode. Once you have things set to your
|
||
|
|
liking, you can autogenerate the current option list in a format ready for
|
||
|
|
insertion into your .vimrc file using the Solarized menu "Autogenerate
|
||
|
|
Options" command or at the command line with:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
:SolarizedOptions
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
OPTION LIST
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Set these in your vimrc file prior to calling the colorscheme.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
option name default optional
|
||
|
|
------------------------------------------------
|
||
|
|
g:solarized_termcolors= 16 | 256
|
||
|
|
g:solarized_termtrans = 0 | 1
|
||
|
|
g:solarized_degrade = 0 | 1
|
||
|
|
g:solarized_bold = 1 | 0
|
||
|
|
g:solarized_underline = 1 | 0
|
||
|
|
g:solarized_italic = 1 | 0
|
||
|
|
g:solarized_contrast = "normal"| "high" or "low"
|
||
|
|
g:solarized_visibility= "normal"| "high" or "low"
|
||
|
|
g:solarized_hitrail = 0 | 1
|
||
|
|
g:solarized_menu = 1 | 0
|
||
|
|
------------------------------------------------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
OPTION DETAILS
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
------------------------------------------------
|
||
|
|
g:solarized_termcolors= 256 | 16 *'solarized_termcolors'*
|
||
|
|
------------------------------------------------
|
||
|
|
The most important option if you are using vim in terminal (non gui) mode!
|
||
|
|
This tells Solarized to use the 256 degraded color mode if running in a 256
|
||
|
|
color capable terminal. Otherwise, if set to `16` it will use the terminal
|
||
|
|
emulators colorscheme (best option as long as you've set the emulators colors
|
||
|
|
to the Solarized palette).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If you are going to use Solarized in Terminal mode (i.e. not in a GUI
|
||
|
|
version like gvim or macvim), **please please please** consider setting your
|
||
|
|
terminal emulator's colorscheme to used the Solarized palette. I've included
|
||
|
|
palettes for some popular terminal emulator as well as Xdefaults in the
|
||
|
|
official Solarized download available from:
|
||
|
|
http://ethanschoonover.com/solarized . If you use Solarized without these
|
||
|
|
colors, Solarized will by default use an approximate set of 256 colors. It
|
||
|
|
isn't bad looking and has been extensively tweaked, but it's still not quite
|
||
|
|
the real thing.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
------------------------------------------------
|
||
|
|
g:solarized_termtrans = 0 | 1 *'solarized_termtrans'*
|
||
|
|
------------------------------------------------
|
||
|
|
If you use a terminal emulator with a transparent background and Solarized
|
||
|
|
isn't displaying the background color transparently, set this to 1 and
|
||
|
|
Solarized will use the default (transparent) background of the terminal
|
||
|
|
emulator. *urxvt* required this in my testing; iTerm2 did not.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Note that on Mac OS X Terminal.app, solarized_termtrans is set to 1 by
|
||
|
|
default as this is almost always the best option. The only exception to this
|
||
|
|
is if the working terminfo file supports 256 colors (xterm-256color).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
------------------------------------------------
|
||
|
|
g:solarized_degrade = 0 | 1 *'solarized_degrade'*
|
||
|
|
------------------------------------------------
|
||
|
|
For test purposes only; forces Solarized to use the 256 degraded color mode
|
||
|
|
to test the approximate color values for accuracy.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
------------------------------------------------
|
||
|
|
g:solarized_bold = 1 | 0 *'solarized_bold'*
|
||
|
|
------------------------------------------------
|
||
|
|
------------------------------------------------
|
||
|
|
g:solarized_underline = 1 | 0 *'solarized_underline'*
|
||
|
|
------------------------------------------------
|
||
|
|
------------------------------------------------
|
||
|
|
g:solarized_italic = 1 | 0 *'solarized_italic'*
|
||
|
|
------------------------------------------------
|
||
|
|
If you wish to stop Solarized from displaying bold, underlined or
|
||
|
|
italicized typefaces, simply assign a zero value to the appropriate
|
||
|
|
variable, for example: `let g:solarized_italic=0`
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
------------------------------------------------
|
||
|
|
g:solarized_contrast = "normal"| "high" or "low" *'solarized_contrast'*
|
||
|
|
------------------------------------------------
|
||
|
|
Stick with normal! It's been carefully tested. Setting this option to high
|
||
|
|
or low does use the same Solarized palette but simply shifts some values up
|
||
|
|
or down in order to expand or compress the tonal range displayed.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
------------------------------------------------
|
||
|
|
g:solarized_visibility = "normal"| "high" or "low" *'solarized_visibility'*
|
||
|
|
------------------------------------------------
|
||
|
|
Special characters such as trailing whitespace, tabs, newlines, when
|
||
|
|
displayed using ":set list" can be set to one of three levels depending on
|
||
|
|
your needs.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
------------------------------------------------
|
||
|
|
g:solarized_hitrail = 0 | 1 *'solarized_hitrail'*
|
||
|
|
------------------------------------------------
|
||
|
|
Visibility can make listchar entities more visible, but if one has set
|
||
|
|
cursorline on, these same listchar values standout somewhat less due to the
|
||
|
|
background color of the cursorline. g:solarized_hitrail enables highlighting
|
||
|
|
of trailing spaces (only one of the listchar types, but a particularly
|
||
|
|
important one) while in the cursoline in a different manner in order to make
|
||
|
|
them more visible. This may not work consistently as Solarized is using
|
||
|
|
a pattern match than can be overridden by a more encompassing syntax-native
|
||
|
|
match such as a comment line.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
------------------------------------------------
|
||
|
|
g:solarized_menu = 1 | 0 *'solarized_menu'*
|
||
|
|
------------------------------------------------
|
||
|
|
Solarized includes a menu providing access to several of the above
|
||
|
|
display related options, including contrast and visibility. This allows
|
||
|
|
for an easy method of testing different values quickly before settling
|
||
|
|
on a final assignment for your .vimrc. If you wish to turn off this menu,
|
||
|
|
assign g:solarized_menu a value of 0.
