|

|
||
**Linutil** is a distro-agnostic toolbox designed to simplify everyday Linux tasks. It helps you set up applications and optimize your system for specific use cases. The utility is actively developed in Rust 🦀, providing performance and reliability.
|
||
|
||
> [!NOTE]
|
||
> Since the project is still in active development, you may encounter some issues. Please consider [submitting feedback](https://github.com/ChrisTitusTech/linutil/issues) if you do.
|
||
|
||
## 💡 Usage
|
||
To get started, pick which branch you would like to use, then run the command in your terminal:
|
||
### Stable Branch (Recommended)
|
||
```bash
|
||
curl -fsSL https://christitus.com/linux | sh
|
||
```
|
||
### Dev branch
|
||
```bash
|
||
curl -fsSL https://christitus.com/linuxdev | sh
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### CLI arguments
|
||
|
||
Linutil supports various command-line arguments to customize its behavior. Here are some common arguments you can use:
|
||
|
||
- `-c, --config <CONFIG>` : Path to the configuration file.
|
||
- `--override-validation` : Show all available options, disregarding compatibility checks (UNSAFE).
|
||
- `--size-bypass` : Bypass the terminal size limit.
|
||
- `-y, --skip-confirmation` : Skip confirmation prompt before executing commands.
|
||
- `-t, --theme <THEME>` : Set the theme to use in the application [default: `default`] [possible values: `default`, `compatible`].
|
||
- `-h, --help` : Print help.
|
||
|
||
For more detailed usage, run:
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
curl -fsSL https://christitus.com/linux | sh -s -- --help
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
linutil --help
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
## ⬇️ Installation
|
||
|
||
Linutil is also available as a package in various repositories:
|
||
|
||
[](https://repology.org/project/linutil/versions)
|
||
|
||
<details>
|
||
<summary>Arch Linux</summary>
|
||
|
||
Linutil can be installed on [Arch Linux](https://archlinux.org) with three different [AUR](https://aur.archlinux.org) packages:
|
||
|
||
- `linutil` - Stable release compiled from source
|
||
- `linutil-bin` - Stable release pre-compiled
|
||
- `linutil-git` - Compiled from the last commit (not recommended)
|
||
|
||
by running:
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
git clone https://aur.archlinux.org/<package>.git
|
||
cd <package>
|
||
makepkg -si
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Replace `<package>` with your preferred package.
|
||
|
||
If you use [yay](https://github.com/Jguer/yay), [paru](https://github.com/Morganamilo/paru) or any other [AUR Helper](https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/AUR_helpers), it's even simpler:
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
paru -S linutil
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Replace `paru` with your preferred helper and `linutil` with your preferred package.
|
||
|
||
</details>
|
||
<details>
|
||
<summary>OpenSUSE</summary>
|
||
|
||
Linutil can be installed on OpenSUSE with:
|
||
```bash
|
||
sudo zypper install linutil
|
||
```
|
||
|

</details>
|

<details>
|
||
<summary>Cargo</summary>
|
||
|
||
Linutil can be installed via [Cargo](https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo) with:
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
cargo install linutil
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Note that crates installed using `cargo install` require manual updating with `cargo install --force` (update functionality is [included in LinUtil](https://christitustech.github.io/linutil/userguide/#applications-setup))
|
||
|
||
</details>
|
||
|
||
## Configuration
|
||
|
||
Linutil supports configuration through a TOML config file. Path to the file can be specified with `--config` (or `-c`).
|
||
|
||
Available options:
|
||
- `auto_execute` - a list of commands to execute automatically (can be combined with `--skip-confirmation`)
|
||
|
||
Example config:
|
||
```toml
|
||
# example_config.toml
|
||
|
||
auto_execute = [
|
||
"Fastfetch",
|
||
"Alacritty",
|
||
"Kitty"
|
||
]
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
linutil --config /path/to/example_config.toml
|
||
```
