Mint-Y-icons: how to automate the creation of a new color for places folder?

I'm using github scripts to create a custom color for the icons in the 'places' directory. But I'm not able to automate the creation of symbolic links to the 'places' folder.
Also, I can't automate the creation of the 'index.theme' file, using only the scripts available on the site.

I'm doing it wrong, or there's no automation for it in the github scripts.

I'm trying through this script to add a new icon color and render the files.

Code: Select all

#!/usr/bin/env bash
set -e

SYSTEM_USER=false   #$HOME/.icons
#SYSTEM_USER=true   #/usr/share/icons/

VARIATION_NAME="Yellow-New"
VARIATION_SVG_COLOR="ffe35f"

I don't have much time now, so i couldn't take a look at your script...
