Installation

Just install the AUR package, here is an example with yay: yay -S tbitsearch-git

Or with paru: paru -S tbitsearch-git

Other Distros

You can download the latest binary from the release section and add it to a directory in PATH, here is an example that should work on most systems: sudo cp [binary name] /usr/bin/tbitsearch Or, build it yourself.

Building

Dependencies

The only main dependency this needs to build is cargo, which is included with rust, but some more may be needed. Here is an example command that installs all of the needed dependencies on arch linux: sudo pacman -S rust git gcc-libs openssl glibc --needed

Building

Just git clone this repo, cd to the directory and run cargo build. Here is a script that will do all of that for you:

git clone https://github.com/georgewoodall82/tbitsearch
cd tbitsearch
cargo bulid --release

The binary will be created in the tbitsearch/target/release folder
