Dependencies

This plugin uses unsplash_wallpaper by cuth to get wallpapers. If you don't have it installed, you'll be prompted to install it upon installing of this plugin.

Configuration

This script is optimized to work with environment variables available to cron, so that you can change your background and lockscreen wallpapers periodically and automatically. As an example, to change them every 3 hours, use the command crontab -e and append the following line:

0 */3 * * * .local/share/omf/pkg/uc/functions/uc.fish
