Ⅳ. 文档说明

PaperColor Theme

Light & Dark color schemes for terminal and graphic Vim awesome editor

Inspired by Google's Material Design

Improve code readability; great for presentation

Inclusive support

Color Ranges

Support True color / GUI-color and identical 256-color that the design is based on.

Also gracefully support down to 16-color terminal, which will use terminal native colors. You need to change the terminal colors to PaperColor palette.

In 8-color and 4-color, it might lack the necessary variation of colors to express PaperColor, but seriously let me know if you still use these kinds of terminals.

Languages and Plugins

Currently designed for these languages:

• Haskell, Erlang, Elixir, Clojure, Elm, Purescript, F#
• C, C++, Golang, Rust, Java, JavaScript, Python, Ruby, Pascal, PHP, Perl, LUA
• DTrace, SystemTap, SQL/MySQL, Octave/MATLAB, R, Lex/Flex & Yacc/Bison, ASN.1, Assembly (MIPS, GAS, NASM), Bash/Shell script, Sed, Awk, Vim script, Powershell script
• Dockerfile, Makefile, CMake, NGINX, Cucumber, YAML, JSON, HTML, XML, Markdown, reStructuredText, PlantUML, Dosini, Mail, Git commit message
• Ada, COBOL, Fortran, ALGOL, (what's your other favorite dinosaur?)

Other file types can still display well as long as your Vim is set up to recognize the language syntax even though that may not be the optimal experience. So, if the language you are working on isn't listed here, feel free to make a design request.

Plugin support: vimdiff, netrw, NERDTree, tagbar, tabline, vim-airline, vim-indent-guides, vim-startify, Agit

(see below for syntax-highlighting plugins target)

Installation

Place 'PaperColor.vim' file into 'colors' folder within your Vim directory, e.g. ~/.vim/colors/

Or simply use a plugin manager like Vundle (recommended for easy :PluginUpdate):

Plugin 'NLKNguyen/papercolor-theme'

Then, put this in your ~/.vimrc

set t_Co=256   " This is may or may not needed.

set background=light
colorscheme PaperColor

Or using the dark version:

set background=dark
colorscheme PaperColor

To switch to dark or light variant during session: :set background=dark or :set background=light

To quickly toggle between them, use vim-unimpaired's keymap cob

Optional: turn on line numbers and status bar

set number
set laststatus=2

User-config Options

This theme currently provides theme options and language-specific options. All config options can be stored in global variable g:PaperColor_Theme_Options which can be set in your .vimrc

Note:

• This g:PaperColor_Theme_Options variable must be placed anywhere before color PaperColor command.
• if the same option is provided in both a theme and a theme's variant, the value in the theme's variant options will take precedence.

Theme Options

Within section theme, options for each theme can be specified under the theme name. The original PaperColor theme is default. For example:

let g:PaperColor_Theme_Options = {
  \   'theme': {
  \     'default': {
  \       'transparent_background': 1
  \     }
  \   }
  \ }

Or if you want to specify options only for a variant (dark or light) of a theme, you can specify using this pattern [theme name].light or [theme name].dark. For example:

let g:PaperColor_Theme_Options = {
  \   'theme': {
  \     'default.dark': {
  \       'transparent_background': 1
  \     }
  \   }
  \ }

Color overriding

You can override any color of the theme of interest. This example is for default theme (original PaperColor Theme), but you can specify any other theme that is registered.

The overriding setting is placed in override key of g:PaperColor_Theme_Options variable that you set in .vimrc like this.

let g:PaperColor_Theme_Options = {
  \   'theme': {
  \     'default.dark': {
  \       'override' : {
  \         'color00' : ['#080808', '232'],
  \         'linenumber_bg' : ['#080808', '232']
  \       }
  \     }
  \   }
  \ }

See DESIGN.md for more details and full list of color names.

Currently available theme options

option	value	default
transparent_background	1: use terminal background	0: use theme background
allow_bold	1: use bold for certain text, 0: not at all	decided by the theme
allow_italic	1: use italics for certain text, 0: not at all	decided by the theme
override	dictionary of color key-value

Language-specific options

In general, for each language, built-in functions and constants are not highlighted.
This is intentional; the vim syntax file often lags behind actual language development.
To override the default behavior, optionally place a language section in g:PaperColor_Theme_Options.
An example configuration is available below

let g:PaperColor_Theme_Options = {
  \   'language': {
  \     'python': {
  \       'highlight_builtins' : 1
  \     },
  \     'cpp': {
  \       'highlight_standard_library': 1
  \     },
  \     'c': {
  \       'highlight_builtins' : 1
  \     }
  \   }
  \ }

Currently available language options

language	option	value	default
c	highlight_builtins	1: enable	0: disable
cpp	highlight_standard_library	1: enable	0: disable
python	highlight_builtins	1: enable	0: disable
