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-extensions-mpris-indicator-button.git

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

    cd gnome-shell-extensions-mpris-indicator-button

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

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

  • 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

    gnome-shell-extension-prefs
