Add Python3 compatibility + a few minor changes
Hi, I love you project! I needed the exact same thing to use images from Reddit as desktop wallpapers, but I'm running a system without Python2. I updated the code so that it can run under Python3. I do not believe I broke anything if yourself (or anyone else) has to still run the code with Python2. But I was not able to test that (sorry!).
If interested, I use this script to update my wallpaper given that all my downloaded Reddit pics are in a "backgrounds" directory in the RedditImageGrab project.
#!/usr/bin/env bash
set -o errexit
set -o nounset
LOG_FILE=${HOME}/.fehbg.log
function log() {
date "+%Y/%m/%d %H-%M-%S: ${*}" | tee -a ${LOG_FILE}
}
WALLPAPER_DIR="${HOME}/Development/RedditImageGrab/backgrounds"
WALLPAPER_FILE="$(find "${WALLPAPER_DIR}" -type f | sort -R | head -n 1)"
WALLPAPER_CMD="feh --bg-scale ${WALLPAPER_FILE}"
log ${WALLPAPER_CMD}
eval ${WALLPAPER_CMD}
Feel free to reject the pull-request if something is broken when running with Python2 and I'll look into fixing it.
Thanks! And again, great project!
@rbprogrammer you may have better chance merging it with @jtara1 repo because it is more updated and adapted to python 3 already
