What's New
- You can set colors at runtime with the -c flag
- Added runtime configuration with -n flag
- Added usage example with -h flag
- Support for non-EWMH window managers
- Improved terminal detection (by @sjugge)
- Fixed width output and RPM support (by @awmyhr)
- Cummulative package count, so multiple package managers work together
Installation
Arch Linux
Aurafetch is available from the AUR as aurafetch-git
git clone https://aur.archlinux.org/aurafetch-git.gitcd aurafetch-gitmakepkg -si
Manual installation
If you prefer DIY (or you don't have access to the AUR), you can install it manually:
First, install xprop, it is used to find the terminal name and the window manager's name.
- Clone the repo:
git clone https://gitlab.com/LionessAlana/aurafetch.git/ - Move to /usr/bin:
cd /usr/bin/ - Create symlink:
sudo cp -s ~/aurafetch/aura ./ - Run aura:
aura - ????
- Profit.
Note: If you clone the repo into a directory other than your home directory, you'll have to change the path in step 3.
Update
If you got Aurafetch from the AUR:
To manually update, you can cd into the aurafetch-git dir and makepkg -si again.
If you cloned the repo:
Because we used a symlink, you should just be able to cd into the
aurafetch directory and git pull
Configuring
To configure the output at runtime, you can use the -n flag.
Example: aura -n 'user colors'
This will remove the username and color dots from the output.
You can use aura -h to view the module names.
You can configure the colors in a similar way with the -cflag.
Example: aura -c 'c1 c3'
This will display the title in your terminal's color1, and the info in your terminal's color3.
You can check this with aura -h
This allows you to create an alias for your favorite output,
such as: alias aura="aura -n 'user packages' -c 'c3 c1"
Alternatively, if you clone/fork the repo you can hack until your heart is content!
Known Issues
- Support for Debian is a work in progress.
