vini c4c9574946 feat: Via Láctea real — mapa all-sky do Gaia amostrado por pixel
Substitui a simulação procedural pelo mapa "Gaia's sky in colour"
(ESA/Gaia/DPAC, CC BY-SA 3.0 IGO): tools/build_skymap.py baixa o
original 8000x4000 em projeção Hammer, reprojeta para plate carrée e
gera milkyway.jpg (3072x1536). O dancer.html amostra a textura por
pixel em (l,b) galácticas reais — grade pré-computada por resolução/
latitude, com só a rotação sideral variando por passo (matriz E2G·Rz
combinada). Nível de preto remove o véu de fundo do mapa; extinção e
clarão aplicados por pixel. Remove mwGlow/mwGrain/poeira procedural.

This file provides guidance to Claude Code (claude.ai/code) when working with code in this repository.

What this is

A KDE Plasma 6 wallpaper plugin — a dancing retrowave robot (DANCEBOT-9000) that reacts to currently playing music via playerctl. No build step, no dependencies to install; the plugin is deployed directly.

Plugin ID: com.vini.dancingcharacter
Install path: ~/.local/share/plasma/wallpapers/com.vini.dancingcharacter

Deploy / test cycle

# Install (or reinstall after edits)
./install.sh

# Remove
./uninstall.sh

After install, activate via: Right-click desktop → Configure Desktop and Wallpaper → Wallpaper Type → Dancing Character.

Plasma hot-reloads QML changes when you reinstall; for HTML/CSS/JS changes you may need to switch away and back to the wallpaper type to force a reload.

Runtime requirement: QtWebEngine QML module must be installed (e.g., qml6-module-qtwebengine on Debian/Ubuntu). playerctl must be running for the music ticker to show track info.

Architecture

plugin/
  metadata.json               # KPackage/KPlugin descriptor for Plasma 6
  contents/ui/
    main.qml                  # Plasma WallpaperItem — hosts everything
    dancer.html               # Self-contained animation (HTML + CSS + JS)
    starcatalog.js            # Generated star data (Yale BSC) — see tools/build_catalog.py
    milkyway.jpg              # Gaia all-sky map (ESA/Gaia/DPAC, CC BY-SA 3.0 IGO) — see tools/build_skymap.py
tools/
  build_catalog.py            # Regenerates starcatalog.js from the Yale Bright Star Catalog
  build_skymap.py             # Regenerates milkyway.jpg (Hammer -> plate carrée) from ESA's Gaia map

main.qml — the Plasma host

  • Declares a WallpaperItem with a full-screen WebEngineView pointed at dancer.html.
  • A Plasma5Support.DataSource with engine: "executable" runs playerctl metadata every 2 s and injects the result into the page with webView.runJavaScript("updateMusic(...)").
  • JavaScript is enabled; local file access and local storage are on/off respectively.

dancer.html — the visual layer

Pure HTML/CSS/JS, no external dependencies. All visuals are self-contained:

Layer Technique
Realistic sky (stars + Milky Way) <canvas>; real-time alt-az projection of starcatalog.js (2,887 Yale BSC stars) + per-pixel sampling of the real Gaia all-sky map (milkyway.jpg) in galactic coords, for the configured lat/long (default Toledo-PR), view facing east. Static layer pre-rendered offscreen, bright stars twinkle per frame; reprojects every 30 s. Debug: window.__skyTimeOffset (ms) fast-forwards the sky
Nebula blobs, grid floor, horizon CSS animations
DANCEBOT-9000 robot Pure CSS (divs + @keyframes)
Chest EQ bars & VU meter JS-driven requestAnimationFrame
Music ticker DOM text set by updateMusic(artist, title) (called from QML)
Dance style cycling data-dance attribute on <body>, toggled by JS every 8 s

Tempo anchor: everything is keyed to 120 BPM (BEAT_MS = 500 ms). CSS animation durations for the robot parts use multiples/fractions of 0.5 s, 1 s, or 2 s.

Dance styles (cycle order): bounce → wave → shuffle → moonwalk → spin. CSS selectors like [data-dance="spin"] .robot { ... } override the default animations via !important.
