breadpaper

Wallpaper setter for the bread desktop. One command sets the wallpaper via awww, generates a palette with pywal (wal), and runs bread-theme reload.

It is not a wallpaper library, a slideshow daemon, or a GUI. Browsing ~/Pictures/Backgrounds and picking an image lives in bos-settings.

Dependencies

Must be on $PATH for set:

awww — Wayland wallpaper (awww img)
wal — palette generation (python-pywal)
bread-theme — theme reload (bakery package, not breadd)

get only reads the path pywal stored at ~/.cache/wal/wal.

Install

bakery install breadpaper

From source:

cargo build --release
install -Dm755 target/release/breadpaper ~/.local/bin/breadpaper

Usage

breadpaper <path>          # shorthand for `set`
breadpaper set <path>      # awww + wal + bread-theme reload
breadpaper get             # print the current wallpaper path

Supported formats: png, jpg, jpeg, webp, gif, bmp.

Bread events

After a successful set, breadpaper emits bread.paper.changed if breadd is running (silent no-op if it isn't). There is no daemon and no command subscription — Lua modules should bread.exec("breadpaper set …"). See EVENTS.md.
