A repository of scripts for Nautilus, also known as Files (or Gnome Files)
Most of those scripts are related to UI design, graphic design, or motion design.
Nautilus Scripts are just bash scripts, so you will need to install the appropriate command line tools for them to work (super easy):
- icotool to generate .ico files
- inkscape to convert vector files
- jpegoptim to optimize JPEG (aka Crunch)
- pngquant to optimize PNGs (aka Crunch)
- ImageMagick to convert image files
- ffmpeg to manipulate videos (extract audio, remove audio, resize video, convert format or generate GIFs)
- Background Remover to remove image backgrounds
Install rpm-fusion if you don't have it, and run:
sudo dnf install icoutils inkscape jpegoptim pngquant ffmpeg ImageMagickIt should work the same on Debian with apt instead of dnf but I cannot test it.
To install the requirements for Background Remover:
pip3 install torch torchvision torchaudio
pip install --upgrade pip
pip install backgroundremoverThe first time you will run backgroundremover, it will download the model, so don't be alarmed if it takes a long time :)
Just move the scripts you want to use to Home/.local/share/nautilus/scripts or just right click on anything in Nautilus, and select "Open Script Folder"
Optionally, you can create an alias of this repository's "script" folder, so you can just pull new scripts directly. First, create a backup of your current script folder
mv ~/.local/share/nautilus/scripts/ ~/.local/share/nautilus/scripts_backup/Then, create an alias of the repository folder (replace PATH_TO_THE_REPO with the actual path where you cloned this repository):
ln -s PATH_TO_THE_REPO/scripts ~/.local/share/nautilus/scriptsSome of the scripts overwrite the original file. For example the scripts to crunch PNGs or JPG have a variant which create a new file and a variant which overwrite the original (clearly labeled "overwrite"). Please be careful!
