Redpaper

Overview

Redpaper is a simple tool that is used to download and set new wallpapers.
It gets the images from reddit.com.

If you frequently search for, download and set wallpapers, or like to give you system
a new look, you this tool is for you. When you want to change the wallpaper, you simply
run Redpaper's download tool and it will scout Reddit for the best wallpaper of the
day and download them. You can then change the wallpaper using it.

Installation

Redpaper only works on Linux systems at the moment, therefor only people running Linux
can use it.

Dependencies

• Python 3.6 or later
• Python3-pip
• Requests
• Pillow
• PyGObject
• feh (only if you use tiling window managers)

Python3 should come by default on a Linux system, but if you are not sure if it is installed,
you can run python3 in your terminal. If you get no errors, then you can proceed. If you
get an error, you should visit python.org to get it.
Pip comes by default with Python. If for some reason you don't have it, you can run:
curl https://bootstrap.pypa.io/get-pip.py -o get-pip.py
and then
python get-pip.py The other dependencies will be automatically installed.

Procedure

When the first two dependencies have been met, you can run the following command to do the install:
git clone https://github.com/keystroke3/redpaper.git && cd redpaper && sudo sh install.sh

Tiling window managers

If you are running a tiling window manager like i3, bspwm etc.. you will need to add this to your
autostart files e.g. ~/.config/bspwm/bspwmrc if you are using bspwm:
$HOME/.redpaper/wallapaper.sh
This line makes sure that the wallpaper you set will persist after logging in.

Usage

To use, simply run redpaper in the terminal. For more information on how to use, please refer to the Wiki
