Documentation can be built from the [quickshell-docs](https://git.outfoxxed.me/outfoxxed/quickshell-docs) repo,
though is currently pretty lacking.
# Installation
## Nix
This repo has a nix flake you can use to install the package directly:
```nix
{
inputs = {
nixpkgs.url = "nixpkgs/nixos-unstable";
quickshell = {
url = "git+https://git.outfoxxed.me/outfoxxed/quickshell";
inputs.nixpkgs.follows = "nixpkgs";
};
};
}
```
Quickshell's binary is available at `quickshell.packages.<system>.default` to be added to
lists such as `environment.systemPackages` or `home.packages`.
## Manual
If not using nix, you'll have to build from source.
### Dependencies
To build quickshell at all, you will need the following packages (names may vary by distro)
- just
- cmake
- pkg-config
- ninja
- Qt6 [ QtBase, QtDeclarative ]
To build with wayland support you will additionally need:
- wayland
- wayland-scanner (may be part of wayland on some distros)
- wayland-protocols
- Qt6 [ QtWayland ]
### Building
To make a release build of quickshell run:
```sh
$ just release
```
If you have all the dependencies installed and they are in expected
locations this will build correctly.
To install to /usr/local/bin run as root (usually `sudo`) in the same folder:
```
$ just install
```
### Building (Nix)
You can build directly using the provided nix flake or nix package.
```
nix build
nix build -f package.nix # calls default.nix with a basic callPackage expression
```
# Development
For nix there is a devshell available from `shell.nix` and as a devShell
output from the flake.
The Justfile contains various useful aliases:
- `just configure [<debug|release> [extra cmake args]]`
- `just build` (runs configure for debug mode)
- `just run [args]`
- `just clean`
- `just test [args]` (configure with `-DBUILD_TESTING=ON` first)
- `just fmt`
- `just lint`
