Supported platforms:

Windows
macOS
Linux
Web

Downloading

Check out the web version: https://zewaka.github.io/meta-yoinker

If you're on windows, download from the latest release.

If you're on Linux or Mac, you will need to build it yourself. Follow the development instructions below.

Developing

This tool is written in Rust.

Install the Rust compiler's dependencies (primarily the system linker):
- Ubuntu: sudo apt-get install gcc-multilib
- Windows (MSVC): Build Tools for Visual Studio 2017
- Windows (GNU): No action required
Use the Rust installer, or another Rust installation method.

Testing locally

Make sure you are using the latest version of stable rust by running rustup update.

cargo run --release

On Linux you need to first run:

sudo apt-get install libxcb-render0-dev libxcb-shape0-dev libxcb-xfixes0-dev libxkbcommon-dev libssl-dev

On Fedora Rawhide you need to run:

dnf install clang clang-devel clang-tools-extra libxkbcommon-devel pkg-config openssl-devel libxcb-devel gtk3-devel atk fontconfig-devel

The executable will be located in the target/release folder.

Web Locally

This application can be compiled to WASM, and published as a web page.

We use Trunk to build for the web target.

Install the required target with rustup target add wasm32-unknown-unknown.
Install Trunk with cargo install --locked trunk.
Run trunk serve to build and serve on http://127.0.0.1:8080. Trunk will rebuild automatically if you edit the project.
Open http://127.0.0.1:8080/index.html#dev in a browser. See the warning below.

assets/sw.js script will try to cache our app, and loads the cached version when it cannot connect to server allowing your app to work offline (like PWA). appending #dev to index.html will skip this caching, allowing us to load the latest builds during development.

Web Deploy

Just run trunk build --release.
It will generate a dist directory as a "static html" website
Upload the dist directory to any of the numerous free hosting websites including GitHub Pages.
we already provide a workflow that auto-deploys our app to GitHub pages if you enable it.

To enable Github Pages, you need to go to Repository -> Settings -> Pages -> Source -> set to gh-pages branch and / (root).

If gh-pages is not available in Source, just create and push a branch called gh-pages and it should be available.
