Anyway to customize the Wave interface?

[chlorine3545]

As the title suggests.

I've recently been introduced to Wave and have quickly fallen in love with it. It truly is a wonderful piece of work, and please allow me to express my sincere gratitude for the efforts put into developing and open sourcing it.

I'm curious if there's a possibility to customize the Wave interface, such as implementing command code highlighting and custom themes? I've come across some discussions regarding this, but I'm not sure if anyone has actually implemented these features yet.

Best regards!

Yes, we're adding custom themes -- specifically for the terminal interfaces, you'll be able to set custom colors, fonts, and backgrounds.

We don't have a way to customize command highlighting, but we're open to suggestions. One thought is to replace our cmdinput textarea with a small version of the Monaco editor (the VSCode editor) which will allow us more flexibility for auto-complete and code highlighting.

Yeah syntax highlighting would be super cool! Check out this issue: #585

[chlorine3545]

Sounds great. Another personal suggestion: Zsh (Oh-my-Zsh, actually) could be integrated directly into the interface, which would allow the use of powerful Zsh plugins such as syntax highlighting and autosuggestion. (I'm not an expert in this area, so please forgive any foolish mistakes in my expression and suggestions).

Would love to see Tokyo Nights + Storm (and Day for light users):

• https://github.com/mbadolato/iTerm2-Color-Schemes/blob/master/schemes/tokyonight-storm.itermcolors
• https://github.com/mbadolato/iTerm2-Color-Schemes/blob/master/schemes/tokyonight.itermcolors
• Day would be good for light users: https://github.com/mbadolato/iTerm2-Color-Schemes/blob/master/schemes/tokyonight-day.itermcolors

HI @ylluminate , thanks for your feedback! We're working on adding more rich and customizable theming at the moment, I will add this to the list of possible themes to support!

[djdanielsson]

Oh-my-Zsh is great and there is also https://github.com/JanDeDobbeleer/oh-my-posh that might be worth looking at supporting.

[ylluminate]

OMZ is great for sure, but it's not the kind of customization I'm looking for in this particular situation. OMP (posh) is kinda cool, but it seems really bulky/slow from my experience. Perhaps it's just when using it with PowerShell . I also feel OMP lacks a lot of themes.

I am just starting with Wave, and found two places for colors:

1. Right clicking the tab and choosing background
2. Clicking the gear of a widget and choosing theme

None of these contain any option for a light theme. Is this indeed the case?

[esimkowitz]

Correct, we don't yet support a proper light theme

[ed-code-dev]

well, then back to warp...

[esimkowitz]

haha stay tuned, it's coming, we just have been working on stability recently so haven't gotten around to it

@esimkowitz
I don't find the light theme in current list, how can I add it or is it not possible yet ??

[esimkowitz]

@amarBitMan there isn't currently a light theme, however it should be somewhat straightforward to add, you can make another version of frontend/app/theme.scss with light mode values. That should get you a good part of the way there. Probably some hardcoded values though that will need to be refactored

Could you please share any steps or examples on how to do this, if possible? I’m fairly new to Wave and still getting familiar with the setup process.

[esimkowitz]

There are some basic background theme overrides specified in https://github.com/wavetermdev/waveterm/blob/main/pkg/wconfig/defaultconfig/presets.json but they're not a true light mode, i.e. text colors won't change. We don't have any steps or examples defined, I'm not super involved in this project anymore but if you put something together I'd be happy to review it
