# slideshow

client for [slideshow-api](https://git.velvettear.de/velvettear/slideshow-api).  
sets (scaled) images as background via 'feh', retrieves color palettes (and executes a script).

## requirements

- [feh](https://feh.finalrewind.org/)

## configuration

configuration is entirely done via environment variables.

| variable                    | default           | description                                                |
| --------------------------- | ----------------- | -----------------------------------------------------------|
| SLIDESHOW_API               |                   | the address of the slideshow-api server                    |
| SLIDESHOW_INTERVAL          | 60                | the interval of the slideshow in seconds                   |
| SLIDESHOW_RESOLUTION        |                   | the resolution to which images are scaled (i.e. 1920x1080) | 
| SLIDESHOW_PALETTE           |                   | path to a file where the color palette will be stored      |
| SLIDESHOW_PALETTE_ALGORITHM | "wsm"             | the algorithm used to generate the color palette           |
| SLIDESHOW_PALETTE_COLORS    | 16                | the amount of colors generated                             |
| SLIDESHOW_SCRIPT            |                   | path to a script to execute each loop                      |
| SLIDESHOW_SCRIPT_ARGS       |                   | arguments to pass to the script                            |
| SLIDESHOW_SCRIPT_ASYNC      | false             | run the script asynchronously (in a goroutine)             |
| SLIDESHOW_SCRIPT_STAGE      |                   | the stage at which the script is executed                  |
| SLIDESHOW_LOGLEVEL          | "info"            | the log level                                              |

**note:**  

- if `SLIDESHOW_RESOLUTION` is unset images will be requested in their original resolution.
- if `SLIDESHOW_PALETTE` is unset no color palettes will be requested.  
- if `SLIDESHOW_SCRIPT_STAGE` is unset the script (if specified) will be executed **after** the background image has been set **and** the color palette file has been generated.

### stages:

- `pre_image`: executes the script **before** the background image will be set.
- `post_image`: executes the script **after** the background image has been set.
- `pre_palette`: executes the script **before** the color palette file will be generated.
- `post_palette`: executes the script **after** the color palette has been generated.

### log levels:

- `debug`
- `info`
- `warning`
- `error`
- `fatal`

## color palette

**available algorithms:**  

- `wsm`
- `wu`
