Trash is replaced by the inbuilt version available in v10.8 budgie-desktop and as such is no longer part of the recommended build components.

Standalone

budgie mini-apps - see the individual components for details

  • Budgie Extras Daemon
  • Budgie Wallstreet
  • Budgie Quickchar (needs the extras daemon as a runtime dependency)
  • Budgie Window Previews (needs the extras daemon as a runtime dependency)
  • Budgie Shuffler (needs the extras daemon as a runtime dependency)
  • Budgie Hotcorners (needs shuffler daemon as a runtime dependency for full functionality)

Installation

By default all recommended applets are compiled and installed:

 git clone https://github.com/ubuntubudgie/budgie-extras
 cd budgie-extras
 git submodule init
 git submodule update

 mkdir build && cd build
 meson --buildtype plain --prefix=/usr --libdir=/usr/lib
 ninja -v
 sudo ninja install

If individual applets (or groups of applets) are to be compiled and installed use the options described in meson_options.txt i.e. use -Dbuild-recommended=false -Dbuild-appletoption=true

e.g. to build just the hotcorners and weathershow applets (remember to git clone and git submodule etc as above)

 mkdir build && cd build
 meson --buildtype plain -Dbuild-recommendee=false -Dbuild-hotcorners=true -Dbuild-weathershow=true --prefix=/usr --libdir=/usr/lib
 ninja -v
 sudo ninja install

Distros

We love Budgie-Extras to work across as many distros as possible. Budgie Extras should be packaged as individual applets - NOT as one "budgie-extras" package, so that end users can install one or more applets. Please let us know if your distro has packaged budgie-extras and how to install each applet.

Packaging status

Build/Runtime dependencies

Individual applets/mini apps have build and runtime dependencies. These are described by https://github.com/UbuntuBudgie/budgie-extras/blob/debian/debian/control

Project License

The overall license for the project is GPL-3+. It is important to note, various individual source files varies from this and git-submodules have a separate licensing.
