QUICKSTART:
|
|
---------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
Put the following two lines in your vimrc:
|
|
|
|
set background=dark
|
|
colorscheme solarized
|
|
|
|
or, for the light background mode of Solarized:
|
|
|
|
set background=light
|
|
colorscheme solarized
|
|
|
|
Other options are detailed below.
|
|
|
|
IMPORTANT NOTE FOR TERMINAL USERS:
|
|
If you are running vim in a terminal, Solarized will run in 256 color mode if
|
|
the terminal supports it, but those 256 colors are (in all 256 color terminal
|
|
emulators) limited to a "degraded" color palette. While the colors will all
|
|
approximate the specific Solarized color values, if you prefer an accurate
|
|
color palette you can set the ANSI colors in your terminal and use the 16
|
|
color terminal mode using the g:solarized_termcolors="16" option detailed
|
|
below. The ANSI color map is specified in the table below and terminal color
|
|
themes are available for download from the web page listed at the top of this
|
|
file, including xorg defaul color values and themes for OS X Terminal.app and
|
|
iTerm 2.

ABOUT
|
|
---------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
SOLARIZED is a precisely designed color scheme with unique characteristics:
|
|
|
|
PRECISION: Solarized is comprised of eight base monotone colors complemented
|
|
by eight accent colors. The monotone colors are specified in L*a*b*
|
|
colorspace for perceptually uniform contrast, even when the palette is
|
|
inverted from dark to light background mode. Accent colors are selected based
|
|
on specific color-wheel relationships to the base monotone series
|
|
(complement, triad, tetrad, split-complement, etc).
|
|
|
|
INVERSION: Solarized can easily switch from light to dark background mode and
|
|
yet maintains L* (lightness) relationships in the entire base monotone
|
|
palette set. Accent colors retain excellent readability on both light and
|
|
dark backgrounds. Thus the vim solarized colorscheme, for example, can be
|
|
easily modified and extended without any effort spent on maintaining the
|
|
light/dark modes separately; the mode switch is the simple inversion of four
|
|
color values.
|
|
|
|
READABILITY: Solarized has been designed as a "selective contrast"
|
|
colorscheme (versus the more common high or low contrast schemes). Elements
|
|
which are secondary in importance, or which should minimize their visual
|
|
intrusiveness (e.g. line numbers and comments in vim) use the lower contrast
|
|
base color values, while high value content (e.g. code) uses higher contrast
|
|
base values as well as accent colors.
|
|
|
|
SCALABILITY: Solarized has been designed to be used both in the full palette
|
|
mode (in text editors where many colors are useful for syntax highlighting)
|
|
as well as in a scaled down five color mode for graphic design purposes (web
|
|
pages).
|
|
|
|
PERSONALITY: Solarized aims to be flexible in many contexts and as such it
|
|
maintains the common primary and secondary named colors (red, blue, yellow,
|
|
green, etc.). Despite the common nature of these hues, each color has been
|
|
carefully tuned in terms of saturation, luminosity (more accurately, L*
|
|
lightness) so that the entire palette has a rich, warm feel in the accent
|
|
range as evidenced by the ochre yellow and oxygenated blood red,
|
|
complementing the deep-sea blue-greens of the base monotone colors.
|
|
|
|
On the name: "Solarized" refers to the dual light/dark mode of the palette,
|
|
somewhat analogous to the photographic effect of solarization. The Ian Brown
|
|
album "Solarized" is also on regular rotation in my playlist.

OPTIONS
|
|
---------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
Set these in your vimrc file prior to calling the colorscheme.
|
|
|
|
option name default optional
|
|
|
|
------------------------------------------------
|
|
g:solarized_style = "dark" | "light"
|
|
------------------------------------------------
|
|
If "solarized_style" isn't set, Solarized will use the value set by
|
|
"background" in your vimrc. I recommend using "background" for simplicity.
|
|
Thus in your vimrc file, the following sequences would set Solarized to
|
|
either dark or light mode, respectively:
|
|
|
|
set background=dark
|
|
colorscheme solarized
|
|
|
|
set background=light
|
|
colorscheme solarized
|
|
|
|
The above is equivalent to:
|
|
|
|
let g:solarized_style = "dark"
|
|
colorscheme solarized
|
|
|
|
let g:solarized_style = "light"
|
|
colorscheme solarized
|
|
|
|
Note that, if set, g:solarized_style overrides the setting for "background".
|
|
|
|
------------------------------------------------
|
|
g:solarized_contrast = "normal"| "high"
|
|
------------------------------------------------
|
|
Solarized has been designed to keep contrast of less critical elements low
|
|
(e.g. comments are lower contrast). Solarized has also been tested on devices
|
|
with a wide variety of gamma values and should perform well on most displays.
|
|
If you find you want to increase contrast for the low contrast items
|
|
(comments, etc.) you can set this value to "high" (default is "normal").
|
|
I encourage you to use it in normal mode first.
|
|
|
|
------------------------------------------------
|
|
g:solarized_termtrans = 0 | 1
|
|
------------------------------------------------
|
|
On some terminals (urxvt in my tests) Vim colorthemes may override
|
|
transparency settings of the terminal. Setting this to "1" changes the
|
|
background value in terminal Vim mode to "NONE" allowing your terminal
|
|
background color/transparency to be used for Vim's background. This shouldn't
|
|
be necessary in OSX terminal applications such as Terminal and iTerm2.
|
|
|
|
------------------------------------------------
|
|
g:solarized_termcolors= 16 | 256
|
|
------------------------------------------------
|
|
A very important setting if you are using Vim in terminals and want accurate
|
|
colors. There are two options:
|
|
16 - Use the named 16 colors of the terminal (red, blue, etc.). In order for
|
|
the colors to be accurately reproduced for this colorscheme, you must set
|
|
your terminal's 16 colors to match Solarized. I list the terminal color
|
|
values in a table above, and also provide downloads of colorscheme for
|
|
command terminal applications from http://ejas.net/solarized
|
|
|
|
------------------------------------------------
|
|
g:solarized_degrade = 0 | 1
|
|
------------------------------------------------
|
|
Used primarily during testing, this can be set to 1 to force Solarized to
|
|
degrade the hex color values to xterm/256 color approximate matching values.
|
|
Note that while in terminal mode in a 256 color terminal, these degraded
|
|
color values will be used automatically unless you have adjusted your
|
|
terminal's default 16 colors and set g:solarized_termcolors to 16 in your
|
|
vimrc before setting your colorscheme.
|
|
|
|
------------------------------------------------
|
|
g:solarized_bold = 1 | 0
|
|
------------------------------------------------
|
|
------------------------------------------------
|
|
g:solarized_underline = 1 | 0
|
|
------------------------------------------------
|
|
------------------------------------------------
|
|
g:solarized_italic = 0 | 1
