Linux Support?

Open aenertia opened this issue 8 years ago • 6 comments

I cloned / added requirements.txt installs manually via pip3 but setup.py build fails as does running the screenbloom.py manually.

Is linux Xorg supported?

The only issue with a Linux version is that you'll need to use the PIL ImageGrab module rather than DesktopMagic (no multi monitor support), example.

setup.py build probably won't work, here's what I'd do to rebuild a local copy of the code:

  1. Clone the repo
  2. Make sure to grab all the static files and place them in the appropriate folders inside the app/ directory
  3. Setup your virtualenv and install the dependencies by running pip install -r requirements.txt
  4. Set the parameters file / change necessary references throughout the project. Either that or just keep the build as 'mac' and things will probably still work.

Lemme know if you run into any issues.

Any updates on this? I'd also like to accomplish this in Linux.

I made this for Linux systems. You can either use it directly or use its code as a guideline to add Linux support to this project.

Hey @cryzed I finally got around to install Amby and trying it out and I'm having trouble. Left an issue in the repo issues log. Thanks!
