Setup

Make sure the OpenRGB server is running:

openrgb --server

And add the folowing in your vimrc :

augroup openrgb
  autocmd!
  autocmd ModeChanged *:* call OpenRGBChangeColorFromMode(mode())
  autocmd FocusGained,UIEnter * call OpenRGBChangeColorFromMode(mode(), 1)
augroup end

Customization

If you don't like the default RGB colors, here is how to change it:

" default dict
let s:default_dict = {
      \ 'main_color': '#000000',
      \ 'led_names': [[]],
      \ 'led_colors': []
      \ }
let g:openrgb_mode_dict = {}
for mode in ['n', 'v', 'V', '', 'i', 'R', 'c', 'r', 't', 'default']
  let g:openrgb_mode_dict[mode] = copy(s:default_dict)
endfor

" customize dict:
"     - if dict[mode] is not found, it falls back to dict['default']
"     - each group of keys in 'led_names' are lit using the same color
"     - look at 'g:openrgb_led_names' to see the available 'led_names'
"     - if empty(led_colors):
"           colors are assigned automatically
"       else:
"           led_colors are used
" -- normal
let g:openrgb_mode_dict['n']['main_color'] = '#ffff00'
let g:openrgb_mode_dict['n']['led_names'] = [
      \ ['Key: Right Arrow', 'Key: Left Arrow', 'Key: Up Arrow', 'Key: Down Arrow'],
      \ ['Key: H', 'Key: J', 'Key: K', 'Key: L'],
      \ ['Key: Left Control', 'Key: Left Windows', 'Key: Left Alt', 'Key: Left Shift'],
      \ ['Key: Insert', 'Key: Delete', 'Key: Home', 'Key: End', 'Key: Page Up', 'Key: Page Down'],
      \ ['Key: F1', 'Key: F2', 'Key: F3', 'Key: F4'],
      \ ['Key: F5', 'Key: F6', 'Key: F7', 'Key: F8'],
      \ ['Key: F9', 'Key: F10', 'Key: F11', 'Key: F12'],
      \ ['Key: 0', 'Key: 1', 'Key: 2', 'Key: 3', 'Key: 4', 'Key: 5', 'Key: 6', 'Key: 7', 'Key: 8', 'Key: 9'],
      \ ]
" -- insert
let g:openrgb_mode_dict['i']['main_color'] = '#007020'
let g:openrgb_mode_dict['i']['led_names'] = [
      \ ['Key: F', 'Key: R'],
      \ ['Key: A', 'Key: N'],
      \ ['Key: C', 'Key: E'],
      \ ]
let g:openrgb_mode_dict['i']['led_colors'] = [
      \ '#0000ff',
      \ '#ffffff',
      \ '#ff0000'
      \ ]

Here is the API if you want to trigger color changes manually:

" calling OpenRGBChangeColor() using 'g:openrgb_mode_dict' info
OpenRGBChangeColorFromMode(mode, force)
" calling OpenRGBChangeColor() directly
call OpenRGBChangeColor(main_color, led_names, led_colors, force)
