- python - For obvious reasons.
- distro - Python library for getting the machine's Linux distribution.
- pyxdg - Python library used to get the $XDG_CONFIG_HOME file path.
- wmctrl-python3 - Python library for the wmctrl tool for X used to get the window manager.
Installation
Download the repository and add a symbolic link to the vfetch.py
script in your /usr/bin/
directory:
$ git clone https://github.com/Lorago/vfetch.git
$ sudo ln -s /path/to/vfetch/vfetch.py /usr/bin/vfetch
You can then run the script with a simple
$ vfetch
Configuration
The default configuration is located in the same folder as the vfetch.py
file, and is called vfetch.conf
. This file should not be removed, moved, or edited.
To configure the script, make a copy of the configuration to $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/vfetch/vfetch.conf
, which will usually be ~/.config/vfetch/vfetch.conf
.
If the script does not find a file in this directory it will use the default configuration file. By default the vfetch output will look similar to this:
