Configuration

n3lock looks for a config file at $HOME/.config/n3lock/config.sh. It's not there by default, you need to create it.

cp config.sh.example "$HOME/.config/n3lock/config.sh"

You can pretty much override any variable defined at the top of n3lock since this file is sourced after initialization.

You could, for instance, source other config modules like so:

. path/to/config.sh

Usage

First cache images with

n3lock -p [PATH/TO/PFP] -w [PATH/TO/WALLPAPER]

From now on you can run n3lock with your cached images like so

n3lock [-c CONFIG]

See usage for more details

n3lock --help
