How to reload colorscheme instantly when config changes?

[Nicknamely]

I use matugen to generate my color palette, and my configuration is generated from a template file. Here's what a generated config looks like:

return {
  "catppuccin/nvim",
  opts = {
    transparent_background = true,
    float = {
      transparent = false,
      solid = false,
    },
    color_overrides = {
      all = {
        blue = "#9fcaff",
        text = "#dde3ee",
        base = "#0e141c",
        mantle = "#0e141c",
        crust = "#0e141c",
      },
    },
  },
}

Is it possible to reload the colorscheme live (instantly) whenever I update and save my Catppuccin configuration file in Neovim?

If so, what's the best way to set this up?

Ideally, I'd like to:

• Have the colorscheme reload with new colors without requiring a manual command or restart
• Receive suggestion on how improve the template. What other color should i overwrite

return {
	"catppuccin/nvim",
	opts = {
		transparent_background = true,
		float = {
			transparent = false,
			solid = false,
		},
		color_overrides = {
			all = {
				blue = "{{colors.primary.default.hex}}",

				text = "{{colors.on_surface. default.hex}}",

				base = "{{colors.surface.default.hex}}",
				mantle = "{{colors.background. default.hex}}",
				crust = "{{colors.background. default.hex}}",
			},
		},
	},
}

Is there a recommended way (mb with an autocmd or other plugin integration) to achieve this?

Thanks in advance!

You can check out my approach to reload a colorscheme.

In short, that is calling all existing Neovim instances to run the command colorscheme <something>, so perhaps you need modify the script to reload your Catppuccin setup() before calling colorscheme, and IMO it's not possible setting the Catppuccin config inside your lazy.nvim config, instead you should separate it into a standalone file.
