## Installing

### From the AUR (Arch Linux) [![AUR package](https://repology.org/badge/version-for-repo/aur/nautilus-open-any-terminal.svg)](https://repology.org/project/nautilus-open-any-terminal/versions)

```bash
yay -S nautilus-open-any-terminal
```

### Nixpkgs (NixOS) [![nixpkgs stable 24.05 package](https://repology.org/badge/version-for-repo/nix_stable_24_05/nautilus-open-any-terminal.svg)](https://repology.org/project/nautilus-open-any-terminal/versions)
For configuration.nix (works without needing to enable Gnome DE)
```nix
programs.nautilus-open-any-terminal = {
enable = true;
terminal = "kitty";
};

environment = {
sessionVariables.NAUTILUS_4_EXTENSION_DIR = "${pkgs.gnome.nautilus-python}/lib/nautilus/extensions-4";
pathsToLink = [
"/share/nautilus-python/extensions"
];

systemPackages = with pkgs; [
gnome.nautilus
gnome.nautilus-python
];
};
```

### From PYPI [![PyPI package](https://repology.org/badge/version-for-repo/pypi/nautilus-open-any-terminal.svg)](https://repology.org/project/nautilus-open-any-terminal/versions)

Dependencies to install before:
- `nautilus-python` (`python-nautilus`/`python3-nautilus`(newer) package on Debian / Ubuntu)
- `gir1.2-gtk-4.0` (Debian / Ubuntu)
- `typelib-1_0-Gtk-4_0` (openSUSE)

User install:

```bash
pip install --user nautilus-open-any-terminal
```

System-wide install:

```bash
pip install nautilus-open-any-terminal
```

### From source
```sh
git clone https://github.com/Stunkymonkey/nautilus-open-any-terminal.git
cd nautilus-open-any-terminal
make

make install schema # User install
sudo make install schema # System install
```
`install` installs this extension to extension directories of all supported file
managers. To avoid this, use `install-nautilus` or `install-caja` instead.

```sh
make install-nautilus schema # Install nautilus only
make install-caja schema # Install caja only
```

### restart nautilus

Then kill Nautilus to allow it to load the new extension:

```bash
nautilus -q
```

## Settings

To configure the plugin’s behaviour make sure to run (system-wide):

```bash
glib-compile-schemas /usr/share/glib-2.0/schemas
```

or for (user-wide) installation:

```bash
glib-compile-schemas ~/.local/share/glib-2.0/schemas/
```
