RandomWallpaperGnome3
|
|
=====================
|
|
|
|
Random Wallpapers for Gnome 3 is a gnome shell extension which fetches a random wallpaper from an online source and sets it as desktop background.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Installation (symlink to repository)
|
|
Run `git clone git@github.com:ifl0w/RandomWallpaperGnome3.git` to clone the repository.
|
|
Run `./install.sh` to make a symbolic link from the extensions folder to the git repository.
|
|
This installation will depend on the repository folder, so do not delete the cloned folder.
|
|
|
|
__Installing this way has various advantages:__
|
|
* Switching between versions and branches.
|
|
* Updateing the extension with `git pull`
|
|
|
|
## Installation (manually)
|
|
|
|
Open the commandline and type the following lines:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
git clone git@github.com:ifl0w/RandomWallpaperGnome3.git
|
|
cp -r RandomWallpaperGnome3/randomwallpaper@iflow.space ~/.local/share/gnome-shell/extensions/
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Then open the command prompt (Alt+F2) end enter `r` without qotes.
|
|
Now you should be able to activate the extension through the gnome-tweak-tool.
|
|
|
|
## Uninstall
|
|
Run `./install uninstall` to delete the symbolic link.
|
|
If you installed the extension manually you have to delete the extension folder with `rm -rf ~/.local/share/gnome-shell/extensions/randomwallpaper@iflow.space`.
|
|
|
|
## Debugging
|
|
Extension output can be followed with `./debug.sh`. Information should be printed using the existing logger class but can also be printed with `global.log()` (not recommended).
|
|
To debug the prefs.js use `./debug.sh perfs`.
|
|
|
|
## Compiling schemas
|
|
This can be done with the command: `glib-compile-schemas randomwallpaper@iflow.space/schemas/`
