🎨 Lualine theme

Enable the newpaper theme for Lualine:

require("lualine").setup({
    options = {
        -- ... your lualine config
    },
    -- example config of sections
    sections = {
        lualine_b = {
            {
                "diff",
                diff_color = {
                -- specific colors from theme with bg color of section
                    added    = "GitSignsAdd",
                    modified = "GitSignsChange",
                    removed  = "GitSignsDelete",
                },
                symbols = {
                    added    = " ",
                    modified = " ",
                    removed  = " ",
                },
            },
        },
        lualine_x = {
            {
                "diagnostics",
                sources = { "nvim_diagnostic" },
                sections = { "error", "warn", "info", "hint" },
                diagnostics_color = {
                -- specific colors from theme with bg color of section
                    error = "LualineDiagnosticError",
                    warn  = "LualineDiagnosticWarn",
                    info  = "LualineDiagnosticInfo",
                    hint  = "LualineDiagnosticHint",
                },
                symbols = {

                    warn = " ",
                    info = " ",
                    hint = " ",
                },
            },
        },
    }
})

Lualine theme name and style automatically using from main theme

⚙️ Hint

You can temporally use just only lualine theme with any others colorschemes. It also depends on vim.o.background.

-- Set bold style
vim.g.newpaper_lualine_bold = true
-- If you want to enable style like in main colorscheme no need to set style of lualine
vim.g.newpaper_lualine_style = "light"
-- Also you can predefine colors
vim.g.newpaper_colors        = { teal = "#008080" }

-- disable main theme
-- require("newpaper").setup()

-- enable other colorscheme
-- ...
