Arch Linux User Repository

As discussed, smassh has been turned into a source package. The pyinstaller binary can be installed with the smassh-bin package. If you want the binary released on GitHub, you should install smassh-bin instead. But normally, these two make no difference.

@jaxvanyang

Hmm... There should be an option somewhere to include files like how I do for the binary.

I'm a little busy now so I'll check it and update you in like... 4-5 hrs

@kraanzu

smassh can be built and installed with this PKGBUILD:

# Maintainer: Jax Young <jaxvanyang@gmail.com>
# Maintainer: Murli Tawari <kraanzu@gmail.com>

pkgname=smassh
pkgver=3.1.2
pkgrel=2
pkgdesc="TUI based typing test application inspired by MonkeyType"
url="https://github.com/kraanzu/smassh"
arch=('any')
license=('GPL-3.0-only')
depends=(
        'python>=3.8'
        'python-textual>=0.52.1'
        'python-appdirs>=1.4.4'
        'python-click>=8.1.7'
        'python-requests>=2.31.0'
)
makedepends=(
        'python-build'
        'python-installer'
        'python-wheel'
        'python-poetry-core>=1.0.0'
)
source=("$pkgname-$pkgver.tar.gz::${url}/archive/v$pkgver.tar.gz")
sha256sums=('c7cde89ba0442c56f9c8953a0cdd4653c276f7ded3398874f45812b12384a011')

build() {
        cd "$pkgname-$pkgver"
        python -m build --wheel --no-isolation
}

package() {
        cd "$pkgname-$pkgver"
        python -m installer --destdir "$pkgdir" dist/*.whl
}

But when I ran it, I got:

This is because smassh use a system path for the merged theme file. Maybe we can make it stored in ~/.config/smassh like the config.

Hey Hey @jaxvanyang!

Sorry for the delayed response, Yea it works

You can change the PKGBUILD/SRCINFO for the non-binary/source and I can review/test it as well

Thank you so much :)

I have created the smassh-bin package, and added you as comaintainer. If that looks good to you, I'll begin making smassh built from source.

@kraanzu

I suppose we can't rename the packages? If you need to create new packages for source/binary feel free to do so and you can add me as a co-maintainer there :)

Yes, we can't. So I will create a -bin package first, then make this smassh package built from source, and pin a comment here to notice people who wants -bin package.

Hey @jaxvanyang!

I added you as a co-maintainer on both of the packages <3

Also, Great suggestions, and thanks for pointing them out

I intentionally orphaned packages built from the source because all the dependencies weren't updated (I'm not really sure about other methods to package but feel free to share anything) but yeah, we can add -bin!

Again, Thanks for the help man. Really appreciate it <3

@kraanzu

[Do I need to give you any permissions or something?]

Yes, there is a comaintainers page for each package. You need to add me there: https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgbase/smassh/comaintainers

According to AUR submission guidelines:

Packages that use prebuilt deliverables, when the sources are available, must use the -bin suffix.

I think maybe we should move this package to smassh-bin, and smassh will be a package built from source. Of course, I can do that for you.

PKGBUILD recommends not include package name is the description. So should we change it to TUI based typing test application inspired by MonkeyType?

I also have a similar package: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/dooit

It'd be great if you could co-maintain that as well :D

I'll take a look if you also give permission of that package.

Hey, @jaxvanyang!

Thanks, I didn't know that

It'd be great if you could co-maintain the package as well! (Definitely, you know more about this than me)

Thanks!!!

Please name the source binary with a unique name, or with some AUR helper like paru, old binary cache will be used.

I recommend the modification below, also add checksum and remove some redundant lines:
