Running Updated Original Neofetch

This repo also serves as an updated version of the original neofetch since the upstream dylanaraps/neofetch isn't maintained anymore and has been archived. If you only want to use the updated neofetch without pride flags, you can use the neofetch script from this repo. To prevent command name conflict, I call it neowofetch :)

Installation

Method 1: Install using Python pip (Recommended)

Install Python >= 3.7 first. Then, just do:

pip install -U hyfetch
# or
pipx install hyfetch

Method 2: Install using system package manager

Currently, these distributions have existing packages for HyFetch:

Packaging status

Method 3: Install the latest developmental version using git

Install Python >= 3.7 first. Then run the following commands:

git clone https://github.com/hykilpikonna/hyfetch.git
cd hyfetch
pip install .

Usage

When you run hyfetch for the first time, it will prompt you to choose a color system and a preset. Just follow the prompt, and everything should work (hopefully). If something doesn't work, feel free to submit an issue!

Questions and answers

Q: How do I change my config?

A: Use hyfetch -c

Q: What do I do if the color is too dark/light for my theme?

A: You can try setting the colors' "lightness" in the configuration menu. The value should be between 0 and 1. For example, if you are using dark theme and the rainbow flag is too dark to display, you can set lightness to 0.7.

Feel free to experiment with it!

Q: Why do you use pride flag's coloring? I don't think it looks nice at all.

A: The core idea behind HyFetch coloring isn't just to make logos look nicer, it's about representation and identity. While it's okay to assess the visual appeal, you also need to understand that the LGBTQ+ flag colors serves a much deeper purpose than just aesthetics.

For many in the LGBTQ+ community, these flags symbolize their identity, struggles, and pride. Integrating these symbols into a showcase of the tech specs they share can provide a sense of empowerment. It's combining their enthusiasm for their favorite distro / hardware with their LGBTQ+ identity.

Also, by including flag coloring along with the updated neofetch, we're also broadcasting a wider message about the importance of inclusivity and representation. It's not just a design choice, it's a statement that promotes awareness and understanding toward the LGBTQ+ community.

Q: When I use hyfetch or neowofetch in my MotD, no art displays. How do I get the art back?

A: Most likely, the stdout detection is set to auto and is removing the ascii art and colors. To change this, you can: set args in your hyfetch.json to "--stdout=off", add --stdout=off to the neowofetch command in your motd script, or set the option in $HOME/.config/(neofetch|neowofetch)/config.conf to off.

Q: How can I run HyFetch on Windows?

A: Install Python > 3.7 and Git > 2.42.0 first. Then, either open Git Bash terminal or install a terminal emulator that can display RGB colors (the default Windows cmd.exe cannot, but the new Windows Terminal can). Then, run pip install hyfetch and run hyfetch.

<!-- CHANGELOG STARTS HERE --->

1.99.0

This version would be the last version of HyFetch on Python as we migrate to Rust (Huge thanks to everyone on #317!). It will also be an effort to start a transition that phases out the neowofetch/neofetch backend in favor of FastFetch, since the time needed to maintain the NF backend currently exceed our capacity. If you are willing to help maintaining it, please let us know!

Neofetch is a command-line system information tool written in bash 3.2+. Neofetch displays information about your operating system, software and hardware in an aesthetic and visually pleasing way.

The overall purpose of Neofetch is to be used in screen-shots of your system. Neofetch shows the information other people want to see. There are other tools available for proper system statistic/diagnostics.

The information by default is displayed alongside your operating system's logo. You can further configure Neofetch to instead use an image, a custom ASCII file, your wallpaper or nothing at all.

You can further configure Neofetch to display exactly what you want it to. Through the use of command-line flags and the configuration file you can change existing information outputs or add your own custom ones.

Neofetch supports almost 150 different operating systems. From Linux to Windows, all the way to more obscure operating systems like Minix, AIX and Haiku. If your favourite operating system is unsupported: Open up an issue and support will be added.
