Install

Here are three ways you can install Lipstick on a Pig:

😇 Download and run this installation script.

🤓 Clone this repository and run the ./install script.

😈 Or, if you enjoy living dangerously, copy and paste one of the following commands into your terminal and run it (ooh, naughty!)

Using wget:

wget -qO- https://codeberg.org/small-tech/lipstick/raw/branch/main/dist/install | bash

Using curl:

curl -s https://codeberg.org/small-tech/lipstick/raw/branch/main/dist/install | bash

Lipstick will automatically find supported apps on your system and configure itself. You shouldn’t have to do anything else.

Notes

Refreshing running apps

Some apps may need to be restarted for the changes to take effect.

Whenever possible, Lipstick should attempt to signal to the app that its configuration has changed so it can reload it. This is what it does for Helix Editor, for example.

Fedora Silverblue

Please either install Lipstick from the host system or from a toolbox container.

(Distrobox currently doesn’t work with systemd --user services in either initful or initless containers and the installer will fail under a Distrobox container.)
