Troubleshooting
Flatpak installation doesn't follow the system Gtk theme
In order to apply a different theme when using Flatpak, run
flatpak override --filesystem=/usr/share/themes/
flatpak override --env GTK_THEME=Adwaita-dark
You can replace Adwaita-dark with the name of any other Gtk theme you have installed.
If you don't use Flatpak, the correct Gtk Theme should be applied automatically.
Build dependencies
- rust
- cargo
- pkg-config
- libgtk-4-dev or gtk4-devel (name depends on the distro)
Building
Building with meson
meson --prefix="/usr" _build
ninja -C _build
sudo ninja -C _build install
Building with Docker
sudo docker build --no-cache . -t lemoa:latest
CONTAINER_ID=$(sudo docker create --name lemoa -t lemoa:latest)
sudo docker cp $(CONTAINER_ID):/root/lemoa/target/release/lemoa .
Once the build is done, there will be an executable lemoa binary file in your current directory, executing it starts Lemoa :tada:.
Building the binary only
Not recommended: To only install the binary (can only be started with the terminal), run
cargo install --git https://github.com/lemmygtk/lemoa.git
You can then start the app via the terminal after adding cargo's bin directory to your PATH variable.
Development
Clone the repository and run
cargo run
