HyprPolkitAgent

The Challenge

Some background services (like polkit agents) read their theme from environment variables when they start. To change the theme, you must:

1. Update the environment variable definition.
2. Import that variable into the systemd --user session.
3. Restart the service.

2. Themis’s Approach

This requires a Script Integration because it involves multiple sequential steps involving system state.

3. Configuration Example

Script: ~/.config/themis/scripts/update_polkit.sh

#!/bin/bash

# 1. Map Themis vars to Polkit vars
export QT_QUICK_CONTROLS_MATERIAL_THEME="$1" # Passed as arg
export QT_QUICK_CONTROLS_STYLE="Material"

# 2. Import to Systemd
systemctl --user import-environment QT_QUICK_CONTROLS_MATERIAL_THEME QT_QUICK_CONTROLS_STYLE

# 3. Restart Service
systemctl --user restart hyprpolkitagent

Themis Config:

enroll:
  polkit:
    type: script
    path: "~/.config/themis/scripts/update_polkit.sh"
    # Pass the theme name (e.g., "Dark" or "Light")
    # Note: You might need a custom variable 'polkit_theme_name' in your profile
    # if it differs from the standard preset name.
    args: ["{{ polkit_theme_name | default(value='Dark') }}"]
