This is a quick and dirty little utility to set my sway background (although, would probably work on any system with swww installed) based on an album in my Immich service

Built with Rust for the memes

I was intending to post this guestlog earlier on but there were issues so here we go!

I’ve implemented the core of the application:

  • Downloading and caching (in session) images from an Immich Server
  • Setting the background using swww
  • Various bits of error handling including local file fallback

Next I want to:

  • Speed up the http calls (I recon switching to an async client will work for this!)
  • Better download retrying
  • A status widget for waybar
  • Improved release logging
