# ida-themr 🎨

A pure Python IDA Pro theme toolkit that helps make theming IDA Pro easier. Transform your reversing environment with ease! 🚀

![CI Status](https://github.com/mahmoudimus/ida-themr/actions/workflows/python.yml/badge.svg)

## Overview 🌟

`ida-themr` is a powerful toolkit designed to build maintainable IDA Pro color schemes.

Beyond theme conversion, `ida-themr` also simplifies CSS theme files by resolving variable references and functions, making themes easier to maintain and debug. There is a dearth of information regarding how to make themes etc and I am hoping to consolidate it here for others to benefit! 🛠️

## Screenshots

Here are some pictures demonstrating some of IDA theming toolkit's functionality:

### Widget Inspector

Chrome DevTools like element inspector written completely in Python without any external dependencies:

### QT Style Switcher

Allows you to save the Qt style based on your operating system (i.e. Fusion, windowsvista, windows):

![Qt Style Switcher](img/qt-style-switcher.png)

Also a `Dark Mode` toggler that will go through and set `os-dark-theme="true"` on every property to toggle `Dark Mode`. Allows you to save the settings and toggle `Dark Mode` when IDA starts up.

### Stylesheet Editor + QSS Processor

A very rudimentary way to fiddle with the generated stylesheet from IDA Pro and a way to edit the QSS stylesheet w/ some basic helper functions for maintainable themes:

## Features

- **Theme Conversion**: Convert individual VS Code themes to IDA Pro effortlessly. 🎭
- **Batch Processing**: Convert all installed VS Code extension themes in one go. 📦
- **Intelligent Color Mapping**: Maps colors between VS Code and IDA Pro using theme keys and nearest-color matching with HSL adjustments. 🌈
- **Theme Semantics Preservation**: Maintains the visual intent of the original theme during conversion. 🖼️
- **Variable Resolution**: Replaces `${variable}` references with their defined values in CSS files. 🔄
- **Function Simplification**: Converts complex functions like `@lighten()` to base colors for clarity. 🧹
- **Error Logging**: Provides warnings for undefined variables or malformed function calls. ⚠️
- **Custom Output**: Generates new theme files in a specified output directory for easy integration. 📁
- **Well-Tested**: Comprehensive unit tests ensure reliability and accuracy in color conversion and CSS processing. ✅

## Installation 📥

### Via HCLI (Recommended for IDA Pro 9.0+)

The easiest way to install ida-themr is through IDA's built-in plugin manager:

```bash
# From IDA Pro's HCLI
ida-hcli plugin install ida-themr
```

Or download from GitHub releases and install manually:
```bash
ida-hcli plugin install path/to/ida-themr-X.X.X.zip
```

### Via pip

```bash
# Install from PyPI
pip install ida-themr

# Or install from source
pip install -e .
```

### Manual Installation

Get started with `ida-themr` manually in just a few steps! 🚀

1. **Clone the Repository**:

   ```bash
   git clone https://github.com/mahmoudimus/ida-themr.git
   cd ida-themr
   ```

2. **Copy to IDA Pro plugins directory**:

   Copy the `src/` directory contents to your IDA plugins directory:
   - Linux/macOS: `~/.idapro/plugins/`
   - Windows: `%APPDATA%\Hex-Rays\IDA Pro\plugins\`

3. **No Additional Dependencies Needed**:
   `ida-themr` is a pure Python tool with no external dependencies beyond the standard library. You're ready to go! 👍

## Usage 🖥️

Two ways to us it:

Cli + IDA Plugin.

Copy the folders in `src` and put them in your `idaapi.get_user_idadir()` directory.

## Cli

Included a simple algorithm to port vscode themes to IDA Pro based on a reference IDA Pro template by parsing VS Code theme files (JSONC format), mapping colors to an existing IDA Pro theme, and generating compatible CSS files for IDA Pro.

### How It Works 🛠️

- Extracting colors from both source (VS Code) and target (IDA Pro) themes.
- Building mappings to associate colors with theme elements.
- Using Euclidean distance in RGB space to find the closest color matches when direct matches aren't available.
- Applying a three-way adjustment in HSL space to fine-tune colors to maintain relative contrast and brightness. We compare the saturation and lightness of the source and destination colors, then adjust the remapped color's saturation and lightness by a fraction of the difference to maintain relative contrast and brightness.
- Replacing colors in a template CSS file for IDA Pro with the remapped colors.
- Generating the final theme files.

### Supports

1. **Color Parsing**: Supports CSS hex formats (`#RGB`, `#RGBA`, `#RRGGBB`, `#RRGGBBAA`) and converts them to normalized RGB/RGBA values. 🎨
2. **Theme Mapping**: Uses theme keys to match colors directly or falls back to nearest-color matching with Euclidean distance and HSL adjustments. 📏
3. **CSS Processing**: Resolves variables and simplifies functions in CSS, ensuring clean and maintainable output. 🧑‍💻
4. **Output Generation**: Creates new theme directories with remapped CSS files ready for IDA Pro. 📤

### IDA supports some `SASS` directives

- `@def`
- `@lighten`
- `@darken`
- `@importtheme`
- `@ifdef/@ifndef` -> optional `@else` -> `@endif`

### Convert a Single Theme 🎯

To convert a specific VS Code theme to IDA Pro:

```bash
python3 src/ida_themr.py /path/to/vscode/theme.json /path/to/output/directory
```

### Batch Convert All Installed Themes 🌍

To convert all themes from your VS Code extensions directory:

```bash
python3 src/ida_themr.py "*" /path/to/output/directory
```

**Note**: If the VS Code extensions directory isn't automatically detected, set the `--ext-root` flag or the `VSCODE_DATA` environment variable to point to your VS Code data directory. 🔍

```bash
python3 src/ida_themr.py "*" /path/to/output/directory --ext-root /path/to/vscode/extensions
```

### Applying the Theme to IDA Pro 🖌️

1. Locate the generated theme folder in your output directory (named after the theme). 📁
2. Copy the `theme.css` file from the folder to your IDA Pro themes directory (usually found in IDA's installation directory under `themes/`). 📋
3. Restart IDA Pro, and select the new theme from the options menu under `View > Themes`. 🎉

## Examples 📸

### Before Conversion 📝

Here's a sample CSS snippet with variables and functions from a VS Code theme:

```css
@def color-primary #ff5733;
@def color-background @lighten(#ff5733, 20);

.button {
  color: ${color-primary};
  background-color: ${color-background};
}
```

### After Conversion 🎨

After processing with `ida-themr`, the CSS is simplified and colors are remapped for IDA Pro:

```css
.button {
  color: #ff5733;
  background-color: #ff5733; /* simplified */
}
```

## Testing 🧪

`ida-themr` is thoroughly tested to ensure reliability. The test suite covers color conversion, JSONC parsing, HSL adjustments, variable expansion, and more. To run the tests:

```bash
python3 tests.py
```

You'll see detailed output confirming the functionality of each component. ✅
