## Installation

### Arch-based distributions
Yin-Yang can be downloaded from AUR as [yin-yang](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/yin-yang) package.

### Source
Yin-Yang depends on `python-systemd` and `pyside6` from pypi. `python-systemd` requires you have installed the systemd-headers from your package manager. You also need python development headers (e.g. `python3-devel`).

For CentOS, RHEL, and Fedora:
```bash
sudo dnf install gcc systemd-devel python3-devel libnotify
```

For OpenSUSE:
```bash
sudo zypper refresh
sudo zypper install gcc systemd-devel libnotify
```

For Debian, Ubuntu, etc.
```bash
sudo apt update
sudo apt install libsystemd-dev gcc pkg-config python3-dev libnotify-bin
```

Then you can install Yin-Yang in a python virtual environment:
```bash
# bash is necessary to run the source command
bash
# Clones the code to your local machine
git clone https://github.com/oskarsh/Yin-Yang.git
cd Yin-Yang
# Installs Yin-Yang
./scripts/install.sh
```

For development, skip the install and instead create a venv in your home directory:
```bash
python -m venv .venv
source .venv/bin/activate # this is for bash, there are similar scripts in the that directory for other shells like fish
pip install -r requirements.txt
```

### Uninstall

Run `scripts/uninstall.sh` from a terminal and fill out the password.
