Tuck

Install (tuck) folder of binaries in your GNOME environment.

Nothing more than a script to prepare an application for use on a GNOME environment. It copies the folder to /opt, creates a sym link in /usr/local/bin, then finally sets up a file for GNOME application menus in /usr/share/applications.

Note: This is a hardcoded implementation. Configurability coming soon whenever anyone feels like it 🤷.

Usage

1. Clone the repo
2. Install node dependencies: npm install
3. Link with npm: npm link
4. Run tuck in the CLI

Requirements

Node version 8+

Running with sudo

Here's a neat set of commands that will let you run tuck in sudo.

n=$(which node); \
n=${n%/bin/node}; \
chmod -R 755 $n/bin/*; \
sudo cp -r $n/{bin,lib,share} /usr/local
