Onagre is build on top of [pop-launcher](https://github.com/pop-os/launcher) which makes it very versatile.
The pop-launcher plugin system allow you to extend Onagre with plugins from the community or even write your own
using any programming language.

## Features

- Works on x11 and wayland.
- Fully customizable theme.
- Default plugins: calc, files, pop_shell, recent, terminal, desktop entries, find, pulse, scripts, web.
- Can be extended with [pop-launcher](https://github.com/pop-os/launcher) plugins.

## Install

**Dependencies:**
- [pop-launcher](https://github.com/pop-os/launcher) > 1.0.1 (for arch users there is and AUR package out there)
- [Qalculate](http://qalculate.github.io/) (optional)

[![Packaging status](https://repology.org/badge/vertical-allrepos/onagre.svg)](https://repology.org/project/onagre/versions)

If there is no distro package available for Onagre in your preferred manager,
you need Rust and [cargo](https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/getting-started/installation.html) to build it.

**From source:**

```bash
git clone https://github.com/oknozor/onagre.git
cd onagre
cargo build --release --locked
sudo mv target/release/onagre /usr/bin/onagre
```

```bash
cargo install --git https://github.com/onagre-launcher/onagre --tag 1.0.0
```

**Latest upstream with cargo:**

```bash
cargo install --git https://github.com/onagre-launcher/onagre
```

| Key | Action |
|:----------------|:-----------------------------|

## Theming

Onagre will look for a theme file in `$XDG_CONFIG_DIR/onagre/theme.scss` and will fallback to the default theme if none
is found or if your theme contains syntax errors. To ensure your theme is correctly formatted run `onagre` from the terminal.

For a detailed guide refer to [wiki -> theming](https://github.com/oknozor/onagre/wiki/Theming)
, or take a look at the [theme examples directory](docs/theme_examples).
