GNOME-Builder plugins

These are all plugins I use(d). They are only compatible with GNOME-Builder Nightly. Maybe they work with older versions, but this is not guaranteed.

Install

For configuring you can use the configure.py script, too.

Without docker

# If you have Fedora 37
sudo dnf install git vala meson gcc libgee-devel json-glib-devel gtk4-devel gtksourceview5-devel libadwaita-devel libpeas-devel template-glib-devel g++ libsoup3-devel
# or if you have Ubuntu 22.10 (Tested: That it compiles)
sudo apt install git valac meson gcc libgee-0.8-dev libjson-glib-dev libgtk-4-dev libgtksourceview-5-dev libadwaita-1-dev libpeas-dev libtemplate-glib-1.0-dev g++ libsoup-3.0-dev zip
git clone https://github.com/JCWasmx86/GNOME-Builder-Plugins
cd GNOME-Builder-Plugins
meson build
cd build
ninja install

Docker/Podman

DOCKER_BUILDKIT=1 podman build --file Dockerfile --output out --no-cache .

After that, a file called dist.zip will be in the out directory. You can copy it to ~/.local/share/gnome-builder/plugins/ (Create it if it does not exist) and unzip it there.

mkdir -p ~/.local/share/gnome-builder/plugins
cp out/dist.zip ~/.local/share/gnome-builder/plugins
cd ~/.local/share/gnome-builder/plugins
unzip dist.zip
