Taiga or Terminal Application for Installing Graphical Appliances is a terminal program for configuring a desktop environment,sound server and other useful components on the system.The application is controlled using the keyboard and you will see what keys to press for performing actions in the app.
For running the program you will need sudo
and pciutils
installed on the system.Guides for installing and checking if these components are installed are available on the wiki.
The master
or dev
branches won't include binaries by default,instead those are included on the bin
branches which contain only the binary specific to the platform.To get the Linux
binary run:
git clone https://github.com/document10/taiga -b bin_linux
And for the FreeBSD
binary run:
git clone https://github.com/document10/taiga -b bin_fbsd
The binaries are also avalaible on the Releases page.
After getting the binary relevant to your system,ensure you have enough rights to run the binary using:
sudo chmod 777 taiga
Running the script is pretty straightforward:
./taiga
You can also load a config created with the script using:
./taiga [configfile]
where [configfile] is the path to the config.
You will additionally need the latest version of python as well as simple-term-menu
as a pip
library.Instructions on setting up those are on the wiki.
