Install

Thanks to our package maintainers, Satty is available for many distributions on Linux and BSD:

Specifics¶

Distribution	Command	Note
Gentoo	`emerge -av satty`	You need guru overlay (see wiki). Pending PR
Alpine Linux	`apk add satty`	Available in Alpine Community

Cargo¶

You can install satty via cargo install satty and cargo binstall satty, the latter requires cargo-binstall. In that case, no manpage, LICENSE file, .Desktop file are available. But you can use the --man and --license arguments to display either.

cargo install and cargo binstall methods install satty to $HOME/.cargo/bin. Using rustup and/or installing distribution packages for the Rust toolchain should normally add this to the user's path. How environment variables such as path are set depends on shell, distribution, compositor/desktop environment etc. It's not really possible to anticipate every possible combination from an application perspective.

Prebuilt Sources¶

You can download a prebuilt binary for x86-64 on the Satty Releases page.

Flatpak ^0.20.1¶

Satty is available as a Flatpak bundle. Pre-built bundles are automatically created for each release and can be downloaded from the GitHub Releases page.

Installing from Flatpak bundle¶

# Download the .flatpak file from the latest release
# Then install it:
flatpak install satty-<version>.flatpak
