GNOME Shell integration for Valent
Valent is an implementation of the [KDE Connect] protocol, built on GNOME platform libraries.
This GNOME Shell extension helps Valent integrate with the GNOME desktop.
The only requirements for building the project are meson, gettext and zip.
The helper script build-aux/misc/ego.sh will build a user extension that can
be installed with gnome-extensions:
./build-aux/misc/ego.sh
gnome-extensions install --force [email protected]To build and install as a system extension, run meson with the appropriate
arguments for your distribution:
meson setup --prefix=/usr _build
meson install -C _buildThis extension supports the latest, stable release of GNOME Shell.
When support for a new version of GNOME Shell is about to be added, a new branch is made effectively halting development for the current version. Contributions are welcome with bug fixes that target these branches, but no new features or changes to translatable strings will be accepted.
Note that compatibility with Valent may also depend on a particular version, since the extension communicates with the D-Bus service.
This project is in an early stage of development, with no stable releases. For those interested in trying out GNOME Shell integration for Valent, there are nightly builds available as an extension ZIP.
