hyprsunset
blue light filter for Hyprland, the dynamic tiling Wayland compositor
TLDR
SYNOPSIS
hyprsunset [options]
DESCRIPTION
hyprsunset is a blue light filter for Hyprland, the dynamic tiling Wayland compositor. It adjusts screen color temperature to reduce blue light emission, which can help reduce eye strain and improve sleep quality during evening computer use.
Once running, settings can be adjusted dynamically using hyprctl commands without restarting the service. This method is preferred over screen shaders as it will not be captured via recording or screenshots.
Lower temperature values (e.g., 3000K-4000K) produce warmer, more orange-tinted colors suitable for night use. The default 6000K represents standard daylight white.
PARAMETERS
-t, --temperature KELVIN
Set color temperature in Kelvin (lower is warmer, default: 6000K)-g, --gamma PERCENT
Set gamma percentage (default: 100%)--identity
Disable temperature adjustments; only gamma changes take effect
CAVEATS
Only works with Hyprland compositor. Requires Hyprland to be running. Changes affect all monitors. May interfere with color-accurate work like photo editing.
HISTORY
hyprsunset is part of the Hyprland ecosystem, created by Vaxry. It provides functionality similar to redshift or gammastep but specifically designed for the Hyprland Wayland compositor.
