KooZic is an open-source music player and management software that allows you to organize your music collection, create playlists, and play your music files on your computer. In this tutorial, we will guide you through the process of installing KooZic on nixOS latest.
Before starting the installation process, make sure that you have the following:
You need to open a terminal on your computer by pressing Ctrl + Alt + T or by searching for the terminal application in your applications menu.
KooZic is hosted on GitHub, so we need to install Git to download and install the app. Run the following command to install Git:
$ sudo nix-env -i git
Enter your password if prompted, and wait till the installation process is complete.
After installing Git, we need to clone the KooZic repository. Go to the directory where you want to download KooZic and run the following command:
$ git clone https://github.com/DocMarty84/KooZic.git
This will download the KooZic repository to your computer.
To install KooZic, you need to run the following command:
$ nix-shell '<nixpkgs>' -A koozic.override { src = /path/to/KooZic; }
Note: Replace /path/to/KooZic with the path to the KooZic directory that you cloned in step 3.
The above command will create a new environment for KooZic and install any necessary dependencies. Wait until the process is complete.
To run KooZic, you need to go to the KooZic directory using the following command:
$ cd /path/to/KooZic
Note: Replace /path/to/KooZic with the path to the KooZic directory that you cloned in step 3.
Then start KooZic by running this command:
$ ./bin/koozic
KooZic should now start, and you can begin to organize and play music.
