v0.2.1 - one-command setup and graphical installer
Install with one command and a window instead of a terminal script.
What's new
-
One command: with Autodesk's download in your Downloads folder, run
bash <(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Harvi654/Autodesk-Inventor-for-Linux/main/get.sh)It installs
gitif needed, downloads this project into~/inventor-on-linux(the newest release) and starts the graphical installer.get.shis short, so you can read it first. -
Graphical installer (
scripts/install-gui.sh, GTK 4):- checks your system (distribution, memory, disk space, GPU, desktop) and finds Autodesk's download in your Downloads folder
- lets you pick options (Content Center, app launcher)
- shows all eight phases with an overall progress bar, the step inside the current phase, the elapsed time and the full output
- asks for your password in a window; the password goes straight to sudo and is not stored
- Stop at any time; running it again continues where it stopped
- It runs the same
install.shas the terminal way. On Arch a full install took about 7 minutes with a warm cache.
-
Inventor on Linux - Setup in your app menu: start Inventor, repair the installation, or update this project and its Wine.
-
Updates follow releases: a copy set up by
get.shupdates to the newest release, not to every development commit.
Fixes
install.sh --prefix(andINV_PREFIX=...) are no longer overridden byconfig.envin the scripts it starts.- Scripts are stored as executable, so
git pullno longer stops on "local changes" after the installer ran.
Upgrading
cd ~/inventor-on-linux && git config core.fileMode false && git pullOr just run the one-command line above; it updates an existing copy.
Known issues are the same as in v0.2.0 (Frame Analysis, 3D PDF, Open dialog with DWG previews).
