# asusctl ([-gex]: Gnome extension) -inactive(until v5.0.0)-
## inactive (kind of - update)
~~This project is currently inactive until a new maintainer wants to put some love into it and make it compatible with the newest asusctl versions.~~
ROG Control Center will also have it's own appindicator.
This extension is currently marked as inactive also on extensions.gnome.org and for users not visible anymore.
*UPDATE:*
The origin maintainer (ZaPpPeL) is back from his rabbit-hole! (I'll take care of getting this into a working-state again within the next weeks - stay tuned!)

Extension for visualizing [asusctl](https://gitlab.com/asus-linux/asusctl)(`asusd`) settings and status.
*hint:* supergfxctl GPU mode switching moved to another extension to make it platform independent: [supergfxctl-gex](https://gitlab.com/asus-linux/supergfxctl-gex)(`supergfxctl-gex`)

## Requirements
* gnome >= 3.36.0
* [asusctl](https://gitlab.com/asus-linux/asusctl) >= 4.0
---
## Build Instructions
### Dependencies
* nodejs >= 14.0.0
* npm >= 6.14.0
### Building (production)
In a terminal enter the following commands as a user (**do NOT run as root or sudo**):
```bash
git clone https://gitlab.com/asus-linux/asusctl-gex.git /tmp/asusctl-gex && cd /tmp/asusctl-gex
npm install
npm run build && npm run install-user
```
_HINT: You will need to reload the GNOME Shell afterwards. (`Alt + F2` -> `r` on X11, `logout` on Wayland)_
### Building (development)
Instead of the
`npm run build && npm run install-user`
above, use this line instead:
`npm run build && npm run install-dev`
This will remove any production versions and installs the development version instead.
_HINT: You will need to reload the GNOME Shell afterwards. (`Alt + F2` -> `r` on X11, `logout` on Wayland)_ and probably manually enable the extension again.
### Source debugging
`cd` into the directory where you've downloaded the `asusctl-gex` source code and enter the following commands:
```bash
npm install
npm run debug
```
