  variant = "spring",              -- "spring", "sakura", "pastel"
  transparent = false,             -- Enable background transparency

      ["@comment"] = { fg = "#888888", italic = false },
    }
  }
})

Override System

Nightblossom provides a powerful override system that allows you to customize both colors and highlights without modifying the source code.

Get Color Palette

Get the current palette, each color and its hex code.

-- Get a table of current palette
local palette = require("nightblossom").get_palette()

for name, hl in pairs(palette) do
    print(name .. " : " .. hl)
end

Color Overrides

Override specific colors in the palette:

-- Override specific colors
require("nightblossom").override_colors({
  bg = "#0a0a0a",      -- Darker background
  fg = "#ffffff",      -- Pure white foreground
  red = "#ff4444",     -- Brighter red
  green = "#44ff44",   -- Brighter green
  purple = "#a855f7",  -- Custom purple
})

Highlight Overrides

Override specific highlight groups:

-- Override specific highlights
require("nightblossom").override_highlights({
  Normal = {
    bg = "#1a1a1a",
    fg = "#e0e0e0",
  },
  Comment = {
    fg = "#888888",
    italic = true,
    bold = true,
  },
  Function = {
    fg = "#ff6b6b",
    bold = true,
  },
  String = {
    fg = "#ffaa00",
    bold = true,
  },
})

Dynamic Overrides

Change colors and highlights on the fly:

-- Make theme darker
local function make_darker()
  require("nightblossom").override_colors({
    bg = "#000000",
    bg_alt = "#0a0a0a",
    fg = "#cccccc",
  })
end

-- Apply high contrast theme
local function apply_high_contrast()
  require("nightblossom").override_highlights({
    Normal = { bg = "#000000", fg = "#ffffff" },
    Comment = { fg = "#888888", italic = true },
    String = { fg = "#ffaa00", bold = true },
    Function = { fg = "#00aaff", bold = true },
  })
end

Plugin-Specific Overrides

Customize highlights for specific plugins:

-- Telescope overrides
require("nightblossom").override_highlights({
  TelescopeBorder = { fg = "#ff6b6b", bg = "#1a1a1a" },
  TelescopeSelection = { bg = "#2a2a2a", bold = true },
})

-- LSP overrides
require("nightblossom").override_highlights({
  LspDiagnosticsError = { fg = "#ff4444", bold = true },
  LspDiagnosticsWarning = { fg = "#ffaa00", bold = true },
})

-- Git overrides
require("nightblossom").override_highlights({
  GitSignsAdd = { fg = "#44ff44" },
  GitSignsChange = { fg = "#ffaa00" },
  GitSignsDelete = { fg = "#ff4444" },
})

Filetype-Specific Overrides

Apply different overrides for different filetypes:

-- Python-specific overrides
vim.api.nvim_create_autocmd("FileType", {
  pattern = "python",
  callback = function()
    require("nightblossom").override_highlights({
      Function = { fg = "#ff6b6b", bold = true },
      Keyword = { fg = "#4ec9b0", bold = true },
    })
  end,
})

-- JavaScript-specific overrides
vim.api.nvim_create_autocmd("FileType", {
  pattern = "javascript",
  callback = function()
    require("nightblossom").override_highlights({
      Function = { fg = "#61dafb", bold = true },
      Keyword = { fg = "#ff6b6b", bold = true },
    })
  end,
})

Managing Overrides

Clear and manage your overrides:

-- Clear all overrides
require("nightblossom").clear_all_overrides()

-- Clear specific override types
require("nightblossom").clear_color_overrides()     -- Only clear color overrides
require("nightblossom").clear_highlight_overrides() -- Only clear highlight overrides

-- Get current overrides
local current_colors = require("nightblossom").get_color_overrides()
local current_highlights = require("nightblossom").get_highlight_overrides()

Programmatic Switching

-- Switch variants programmatically
require("nightblossom").set_variant("sakura")

-- Get available variants
local variants = require("nightblossom").get_variants()
print("Available:", table.concat(variants, ", "))
