Installing on (GNU/)Linux

NOTE: you need neofetch to be also installed for this to work.

Via AUR

On Arch Linux for the git testing version (the less stable version): fetchcord-testing

And the git version (synced with master): fetchcord

Historically the stabler release was the one from pip but now master will have only the stable releases.

Via Snap

On systems with snap installed, you can run sudo snap install fetchcord --classic to install fetchcord.

Note that like the AUR version, this version is directly from master, for the stable release use pip

Via pip

To Install fetchcord via pip you can run pip3 install fetchcord

If you want to remove FetchCord you can run pip3 uninstall fetchcord

Run

Once installed, simply run fetchcord. The program is also daemonizable meaning you can start it on boot using any method you prefer.

If you get fetchcord: command not found,add export PATH="$HOME/.local/bin:$PATH" to your bashrc, or just run python3 -m fetchcord.

Optionally for systemd users there is a user-side fetchcord.service in this repo that can be installed to ~/.local/share/systemd/user/, started and enabled on boot using systemctl --user enable --now fetchcord.

Installing on MacOS

To install FetchCord, run pip3 install FetchCord

NOTE: you need neofetch to be also installed for this to work.

Run

simply run fetchcord

Installing on Windows
