</details>

## Installation

### Arch linux

The CLI is available from the AUR as `caelestia-cli`. You can install it with an AUR helper
like [`yay`](https://github.com/Jguer/yay) or manually downloading the PKGBUILD and running `makepkg -si`.

A package following the latest commit also exists as `caelestia-cli-git`. This is bleeding edge
and likely to be unstable/have bugs. Regular users are recommended to use the stable package
(`caelestia-cli`).

### Nix

You can run the CLI directly via `nix run`:

```sh
nix run github:caelestia-dots/cli
```

Or add it to your system configuration:

```nix
{
  inputs = {
    nixpkgs.url = "github:nixos/nixpkgs/nixos-unstable";

    caelestia-cli = {
      url = "github:caelestia-dots/cli";
      inputs.nixpkgs.follows = "nixpkgs";
    };
  };
}
```

The package is available as `caelestia-cli.packages.<system>.default`, which can be added to your
`environment.systemPackages`, `users.users.<username>.packages`, `home.packages` if using home-manager,
or a devshell. The CLI can then be used via the `caelestia` command.

> [!TIP]
> The default package does not have the shell enabled by default, which is required for full functionality.
> To enable the shell, use the `with-shell` package. This is the recommended installation method, as
> the CLI exposes the shell via the `shell` subcommand, meaning there is no need for the shell package
> to be exposed.

For home-manager, you can also use the Caelestia's home manager module (explained in
[configuring](https://github.com/caelestia-dots/shell?tab=readme-ov-file#home-manager-module)) that
installs and configures the shell and the CLI.

### Manual installation

Install all [dependencies](#dependencies), then install
[`python-build`](https://github.com/pypa/build),
[`python-installer`](https://github.com/pypa/installer),
[`python-hatch`](https://github.com/pypa/hatch) and
[`python-hatch-vcs`](https://github.com/ofek/hatch-vcs).

e.g. via an AUR helper (yay)

```sh
yay -S libnotify swappy grim dart-sass app2unit wl-clipboard slurp gpu-screen-recorder glib2 cliphist fuzzel python-build python-installer python-hatch python-hatch-vcs
```

Now, clone the repo, `cd` into it, build the wheel via `python -m build --wheel`
and install it via `python -m installer dist/*.whl`. Then, to install the `fish`
completions, copy the `completions/caelestia.fish` file to
`/usr/share/fish/vendor_completions.d/caelestia.fish`.

```sh
git clone https://github.com/caelestia-dots/cli.git
cd cli
python -m build --wheel
sudo python -m installer dist/*.whl
sudo cp completions/caelestia.fish /usr/share/fish/vendor_completions.d/caelestia.fish
```
