Customizable NASA's Picture of the Day Wallpaper for KDE Plasma

KDE Plasma has an option to set your wallpaper as NASA's Picture of the Day and it's really nice.
But I was facing 2 problems with this:

1. Unfortunately you can't really understand the image without the explanation provided on NASA's page.
2. Using a triple monitor setup, I wanted 3 different images for the last 3 days (including today) KDE by default did not provide this functionality and I didn't want to spend too much time (yet) into building a plugin for KDE.

So here's my solution to these problems:

1. Use conky to display the explanation
2. Use a plugin called HTML Wallpaper and create a page that can display NASA's POTD for a particular day offset. The nasa_potd_desc.py file solves both of these problems. It prints out the output for conky to display on my screen and saves the image to be displayed on a HTML page using HTML Viewer.

How to use

1. Clone the repository
2. Add the following line to your conky config replacing [offset] with the number of days you want to offset the results by:

   ${execpi 300 python /home/kartikay/Programming/nasa-wp/nasa_potd_desc.py -d [offset]}
   

3. Install the HTML Wallpaper plugin and set the path to replacing [offset] as before and subsituting your monitor's height and width for [height] and [width]:

   file:///location/of/repository/day.html?diff=[offset]&height=[height]&width=[width]
   

Final Results:
