Installation

Automated Installation Script

Caution

I do not guarantee that Carch will work on Arch-based* or Fedora-based* distros. Use it on such distros at your own risk, as I do not officially support them.

However, Carch will work fine on the mainline distributions, like Arch Linux and Fedora.

To install Carch, execute the following command in your terminal:

Note

Make sure to install curl before running this command: sudo pacman -S curl or sudo dnf install curl -y

Also, check the make and less packages (for Arch only).

Arch

bash <(curl -L https://chalisehari.com.np/arch)

Fedora

bash <(curl -L https://chalisehari.com.np/fedora)

Tip

You don’t need to run the installation script every time. You can run it once, and then simply type carch in your terminal whenever you want to automatically execute the Carch script.

Manual Installation

Dependencies

Arch

sudo pacman -S rust gum figlet man-db man git wget unzip noto-fonts-emoji ttf-joypixels curl bash bash-completion ttf-nerd-fonts-symbols ttf-jetbrains-mono ttf-jetbrains-mono-nerd bat zsh fish

Fedora

sudo dnf install rust gum figlet man-db man git wget unzip google-noto-color-emoji-fonts google-noto-emoji-fonts bat jetbrains-mono-fonts-all bash-completion-devel zsh fish curl bat

Clone and Build

git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/harilvfs/carch
cd carch
cargo build --release
cd target/release/
sudo cp -r carch /usr/bin/

Now you can run carch in your terminal. If you encounter any issues on Fedora, they might be dependency-related. It should work fine, but if any problems arise, feel free to open an issue or email me at harilvfs@chalisehari.com.np.
