Periodically fetch and set random wallpapers from Wallhaven's toplist.

Download the latest release from https://github.com/arch-anes/randwall/releases.

Install the randwall-bin AUR package.

• Clone the repo
• Run make build
• The binary will be generated as randwall

Or install directly:

go install github.com/arch-anes/randwall@latest

When you start randwall for the first time, a configuration file with default options will be created.

The configuration file contains the following settings:

• api_key (empty by default): This is your Wallhaven API key. This is only needed when purity.nsfw is enabled.
• max_page (default 500): The maximum Wallhaven page to go to when fetching wallpapers (the more restrictive the keywords are, the lower this number should be set to).
• keep (default 10): The maximum number of wallpapers to keep in temporary folder. A value of 0 means keeping everything.
• interval (default 30): Fetch interval in seconds.
• categories (all enabled by default): These are the Wallhaven categories.
• purity (sfw only enabled by default): These are the Wallhaven purity settings. nsfw needs an API key.
• include (empty list by default): A list of keywords to use when searching for wallpapers. This is empty by default to get all keywords.
• exclude: A list of keywords to exclude when searching for wallpapers. By default it contains a few entries.

Simply start the executable:

./randwall

Run systemctl enable --now --user randwall.
