Installing

pipx

The application can be installed using pipx:

pipx install rogallo

uv

The application can be installed using uv:

uv tool install rogallo

If you don't have uv installed you can use uvx.sh to perform the installation. For GNU/Linux or macOS or similar:

curl -LsSf uvx.sh/rogallo/install.sh | sh

or on Windows:

powershell -ExecutionPolicy ByPass -c "irm https://uvx.sh/rogallo/install.ps1 | iex"

Once installed run the rogallo command.

File locations

Rogallo stores files in an rogallo directory within both $XDG_DATA_HOME and $XDG_CONFIG_HOME. If you wish to fully remove anything to do with Rogallo you will need to remove those directories too.

Expanding for the common locations, the files normally created are:

  • ~/.cache/rogallo/* -- The document cache.
  • ~/.config/rogallo/configuration.json -- The configuration file.
  • ~/.local/share/rogallo/* -- The locally-held data.
