Installation

The preferred method of installation is via the GNOME Extensions site But since there is no compiling necessary installing manually basically amounts to just copy & paste.

Manual install from git master

• Clone the repo

  git clone https://github.com/JasonLG1979/gnome-shell-extension-mpris-indicator-button.git

• cd into the gnome-shell-extensions-mpris-indicator-button directory

  cd gnome-shell-extension-mpris-indicator-button

• Copy the Extension to ~/.local/share/gnome-shell/extensions/

  cp -a mprisindicatorbutton@JasonLG1979.github.io ~/.local/share/gnome-shell/extensions/mprisindicatorbutton@JasonLG1979.github.io/

• Restart GNOME Shell or logout and then back in

  In X you can restart GNOME Shell by pressing Alt+F2, once you get a prompt enter an "r" (no quotes) and then press ENTER.

  In Wayland you'll need to logout and then back in.

• Use gnome-shell-extension-prefs to enable the extension
