Extensions for Cinnamon's file manager Nemo.
The main component nemo-python provides Python scripts access to Nemo's
extension interface. It includes the possibility to create property pages
and custom columns. nemo-python passes the current view's file objects
to the script which does its magic and then decides how to present it to
the user.
Many useful extensions have already been written:
| Component | Current Status | Refactored |
|---|---|---|
| see metadata-tab | obsolete | |
| nemo-compare | functional (Py3) | yes |
| nemo-dropbox | functional (Py3+C) | (C) |
| nemo-emblems | functional (Py3) | yes |
| nemo-fileroller | functional (C) | (C) |
| nemo-folder-color-switcher | functional (Py3) | yes |
| nemo-gtkhash | functional (C) | (C) |
| nemo-image-converter | functional (C) | (C) |
| see metadata-columns | obsolete | |
| nemo-metadata-columns | NEW (Py3) | yes |
| nemo-metadata-tab | NEW (Py3) | yes |
| nemo-pastebin | functional (Py3) | yes |
| nemo-preview | functional (C) | (C) |
| nemo-python | functional (C) | (C) |
| removed | obsolete | |
| nemo-repairer | functional (C) | (C) |
| nemo-seahorse | functional (C) | (C) |
| nemo-share | functional (C) | (C) |
| nemo-terminal | functional (Py3) | yes |
In the latest development all Python scripts have been ported to Python 3.
While there is still cleanup work to do, most scripts are functional.
Only nemo-rabbitvcs got lost on the way. Maybe we (you?) come up with
some replacement sometime.
For extension descriptions see their README files.
The preferred installation method is via your system's package manager.
Manual installation can be done by moving your desired extension in
nemo-python's extension lookup paths which are by default:
/usr/share/nemo-python/extensions/ or
~/.local/share/nemo-python/extensions/.
Restart nemo after that.
Many extensions work out-of-the-box. Others come with handy configuration tools. Check the extension's description for details. Settings are always stored on a per-user basis.
