| ## Requirements | ||
|
|
||
| Gnome 3.28+ (Ubuntu Gnome 18.04+, Fedora 23+, older versions of the extension work with 3.18+, but are no longer supported) | ||
| GNOME 3.28+ (Ubuntu Gnome 18.04+, Fedora 23+, older versions of the extension work with 3.18+, but are no longer supported). Blur control requires GNOME 3.36+, and may be unreliable on 3.36.3 or below. | ||
|
|
||
| ## Install | ||
|
|
||
| [Install from extensions.gnome.org](https://extensions.gnome.org/extension/1262/bing-wallpaper-changer/) | ||
|
|
||
| or install directly to your GNOME extensions directory (useful if you want to hack on it) | ||
|
|
||
| `git clone https://github.com/neffo/bing-wallpaper-gnome-extension.git $HOME/.local/share/gnome-shell/extensions/[email protected]` | ||
| ``` | ||
| git clone https://github.com/neffo/bing-wallpaper-gnome-extension.git $HOME/.local/share/gnome-shell/extensions/[email protected] | ||
| ``` | ||
|
|
||
| or create a zip file by doing this | ||
|
|
||
| `git clone https://github.com/neffo/bing-wallpaper-gnome-extension.git` | ||
| `cd bing-wallpaper-gnome-extension` | ||
| `sh buildzip.sh` | ||
| ``` | ||
| git clone https://github.com/neffo/bing-wallpaper-gnome-extension.git | ||
| cd bing-wallpaper-gnome-extension | ||
| sh buildzip.sh | ||
| ``` | ||
|
|
||
| You can then install this file using the GNOME Tweak Tool. Please note to install an extension correctly the zip must have the metadata.json file in the base directory (not in a sub-directory), so you can't use the Github zip file to do this. | ||
|
|
||
| ## Enable debug logging | ||
|
|
||
| If you run into problems, you can enable debugging using dconf-editor with this command: | ||
| ``` | ||
| GSETTINGS_SCHEMA_DIR=$HOME/.local/share/gnome-shell/extensions/[email protected]/schemas dconf-editor /org/gnome/shell/extensions/bingwallpaper/ | ||
| ``` | ||
|
|
||
| You can then install this file using the Gnome Tweak Tool. Please note to install an extension correctly the zip must have the metadata.json file in the base directory (not in a sub-directory), so you can't use the Git zip file to do this. | ||
| Please include logs from your journal when submitting bug notices (make sure nothing sensitive is included in the text!). | ||
