Manually ported color themes for ConEmu

Color Schemes for ConEmu

This repo originally started as a place to share my favorite color schemes that I ported from various sources to ConEmu. A lot of recently added themes and improvements are from various contributors (thanks a lot!).

I started porting color schemes manually because I found that automatically ported color schemes generally do not look good, because in many cases two programs have inconsistencies in items for color schemes. So, I try to manually choose colors to get color schemes as consistent as possible to the original.

Note that most of the screenshots shown here are taken with the prompt customized with posh-git and the Get-ChildItem with Get-ChildItemColor. See this blog post for my PowerShell customizations.

My current favorites are material-theme (Emacs) light and One Dark.

Examples

• material-theme (Emacs) (light)

  

• Oceans16 (dark)

How to Install

Use Install-ConEmuTheme.ps1 PowerShell script.

• Use Install-ConEmuTheme.ps1 PowerShell script. First, the script will always create a backup of your config file as ConEmu.backup.xml prior to doing anything else. It’s got two operation modes:
  1. To add a theme to your config file:

     .\Install-ConEmuTheme.ps1 [-ConfigPath Path] -Operation Add -ThemePathOrName themes\oceans16-dark.xml
             

  2. To remove a theme from your config file:

     .\Install-ConEmuTheme.ps1 [-ConfigPath Path] -Operation Remove -ThemePathOrName "Oceans16 Dark"
             

• Note that -ConfigPath argument is optional if your ConEmu.xml is located at the default location (C:\Users\You\AppData\Roaming\ConEmu.xml).
• To add all the themes included in this repo, run the following in a powershell prompt:

  @(Get-ChildItem -Recurse -Filter *.xml ) | %{.\Install-ConEmuTheme.ps1 -Operation Add -ThemePathOrName $_.FullName}
      

Manually add color schemes and modify the ConEmu.xml file:

1. Open ConEmu.xml. Usually it is at ~\AppData\Roaming, where ~ is your home directory (C:\Users\UserName).
2. Paste the color scheme at the end of palette settings part. It starts with the following:

   <key name="Colors" modified="2015-03-19 13:53:09" build="150310">
   	<value name="Count" type="dword" data="00000001"/>
   	<key name="Palette1" modified="2015-03-19 13:53:09" build="150310">
       

3. If you do not have any custom color scheme, the xml key is not there. In ConEmu, go to Settings -> Feature -> Colors and generate a custom color theme by click on Save button and specify any name. Then Colors key will be automatically generated in your ConEmu.xml. You can overwrite it when you add new themes.
4. Update the palette number (key name PaletteX) accordingly. For example, if you have 1 custom color palette already, it should be Palette2 for the new one:

   <key name="Palette2" modified="2015-03-19 13:53:09" build="150310">
       

5. Make sure to increase the value for key name Count under key Colors as well. It should equal to the total number of pallets you have:

   <value name="Count" type="dword" data="00000002"/>
       

6. For example, the Colors part of your modified ConEmu.xml should look like this:

   <key name="Colors" modified="2015-03-19 13:53:09" build="150310">
   	<value name="Count" type="dword" data="00000002"/>
   	<key name="Palette1" modified="2015-03-19 13:53:09" build="150310">
   		<value name="Name" type="string" data="EXISTING COLOR"/>
   		...
   		<value name="ColorTable31" type="dword" data="00e3f6fd"/>
   	</key>
   	<key name="Palette2" modified="2015-03-19 13:53:09" build="150310">
   		<value name="Name" type="string" data="NAME OF THE COLOR YOU ADDED"/>
   		...
   		<value name="ColorTable31" type="dword" data="00e7fdfd"/>
   	</key>
   </key>      
       

How to Contribute

See Template.xml for the template for color schemes with the default colors. In general, programs (such as git) uses colors through 0 - 8, (see the template for their uses). I decided to use git and PowerShell as the main targets, so please try to match your colors to the usage of those applications.

Also, make sure that all the color options set to Auto to get correct highlighting:

conemu-color-themes's Issues

merge develop into master

What term are you using?

What terminal are you using with ConEmu? I'm using Cygwin with ConEmu, though my path and name don't use colors for some reason.

I've tried MinGW bash, Windows 10 Bash, Git Bash, CMD, and PowerShell and none of them color the path or user and machine name.

Extended foreground colors are no longer supported

Hi, just in case you weren't aware already, ConEmu removed the extended foreground colors feature in build 180318, which was released on 2018-03-18. See Maximus5/ConEmu#1595.

It may be worth it to make a note of that in the README and to update the scripts and themes in this repo.

Install-ConEmuTheme.ps1 script throws this error

PS>.\Install-ConEmuTheme.ps1

What am i doing wrong?

Trying to import all themes at once using the Powershell command generates Parameter Binding errors

When you attempt to bulk import all themes using the provided command in the instructions, it generates the following errors (posting one example, they're the same for every theme):-

C:\JUNK\ConEmu-Color-Themes\Install-ConEmuTheme.ps1 : Cannot validate argument on parameter
'ThemePathOrName'. The "($Operation -eq "Remove") -or (Test-Path -Path $)" validation script for the
argument with value "xfce4-terminal-white-on-black.xml" did not return a result of True. Determine why the
validation script failed, and then try the command again.

...l ) | %{.\Install-ConEmuTheme.ps1 -Operation Add -ThemePathOrName $}
CategoryInfo : InvalidData: (:) [Install-ConEmuTheme.ps1], ParameterBindingValidationException
+ FullyQualifiedErrorId : ParameterArgumentValidationError,Install-ConEmuTheme.ps1

Instead, I went with a traditional loop to perform the imports and used the "fullName" of the xml files instead and that worked:

PS C:\JUNK\ConEmu-Color-Themes> foreach ($file in $files) {$filepath = $file.FullName Write-Host "Installing $filepath..." .\Install-ConEmuTheme.ps1 -Operation Add -ThemePathOrName $filepath}

Add gruvbox

For some weird reason, i cant get gruvbox light working nicely on ConEmu. but here is my dark version.

Solarized light in cmder shows incorrect colors

I'm using cmder which uses conemu as its terminal emulator. It has some colorschemes bundled already, and Solarized Light is one of them, but it does not work. I tried your Solarized Light version and same result.

Here is the broken cmder screenshot:

And here is the correct Windows Terminal screenshot:

Nord theme installs as "Default" and doesn't seem to work

The Nord theme file (nord.xml) has "Default" as its name value, so it installs as Default but it seems to be unable to override it's settings.

Request for Night Owl theme port

Please port this beautiful pleasing theme

Or if there is a method to follow which I can try to port

Thanks a lot for other themes!

Can we please port these colors to ConEmu theme :)

Installing all themes typo

Hi, I think there is a typo in the full installation command:

@(Get-ChildItem -Recurse -Filter *.xml ) | %{.\Install-ConEmuTheme.ps1 -Operation Add -ThemePathOrName $_}

It needed one change for me to work ("themes\$_" instead of $_):

@(Get-ChildItem -Recurse -Filter *.xml ) | %{.\Install-ConEmuTheme.ps1 -Operation Add -ThemePathOrName "themes\$_"}

Hope it will save someone the time of figuring out what is wrong here

Can't get themes to load

I ran the script and it seems like it worked but I don't see the theme in colors??

railscasts theme?

Can you create "base16-railscasts" theme for ConEmu? Would be great if you can.

Source: https://chriskempson.github.io/base16/

Themes installed using the script do not show in the settings

I was able to install the themes using the .\Install-ConEmuTheme.ps1 command, however they are not showing up in the settings when I try to select colors. If I attempt to import them again, it states they are already imported.

They show up in the config.xml I believe (attached as zip) but do not show in the color selection

ConEmu.zip

The Moe-dark scheme looks different

It doesn't look anything like this picture in my terminal. Judging by the color values in the xml file, they don't look like they could possibly yield the colors in the picture you posted. Am I missing something; or perhaps, the wrong photo/xml file has been uploaded to this repo?
