Yet another Discord overlay for Linux written in Python using GTK3.
Considerably lighter on system resources and less hack-and-slash included than discord-overlay.
python3 -m pip install discover-overlay
git clone https://github.com/trigg/Discover.git
cd Discover
python3 -m pip install .
Note that while we list links to other locations to download, the version provided is unknown and often untested by us. Report bugs in these implementations to their respective project, not here.
sudo yum copr enable mavit/discover-overlay
sudo yum install discover-overlay
sudo eselect repository enable guru
sudo emaint -r guru sync
sudo emerge net-voip/discover-overlay
Most requirements should be handled by pip.
A compositor is strongly advised but there is a non-compositor mode optionally
It is advised to install python-gobject from your system's own package manager.
apt install python3-gi
pacman -S python-gobject
with Wayland support
pacman -S gtk-layer-shell
Run discover-overlay
if this fails it is most likely in ~/.local/bin/discover-overlay
Comes with sane-enough default but has a configuration screen to tweak to your own use. Configuration can be reached either via System tray or by running discover-overlay --configure
If you are trying to debug on VS Code you are likely to get the following message:
/usr/bin/python3: No module named discover_overlay.__main__; 'discover_overlay' is a package and cannot be directly executed
To get around this, copy the main file created by discover-overlay with cp $(which discover-overlay) /path/to/Discover/discover_overlay/__main__.py
I feel like I shouldn't have to at all! Until we get an official one I might just create a new one every few months. Look forward to Rust/Vulkan version coming in a few months.
Generally, no.
