Installation

Ubuntu/Debian

Either download an installable .deb file from the latest release:

wget https://github.com/sezanzeb/input-remapper/releases/download/2.2.1/input-remapper-2.2.1.deb
sudo apt install -f ./input-remapper-2.2.1.deb

Or install the very latest changes via:

sudo apt install git gettext
git clone https://github.com/sezanzeb/input-remapper.git
cd input-remapper
./scripts/build-deb.sh
sudo apt purge input-remapper input-remapper-daemon input-remapper-gtk python3-inputremapper
sudo apt install -f ./dist/input-remapper-2.2.1.deb

Input Remapper is also available in the repositories of Debian and Ubuntu via

sudo apt install input-remapper

Input Remapper ≥ 2.0 requires at least Ubuntu 22.04.

Fedora

sudo dnf install input-remapper
sudo systemctl enable --now input-remapper

Arch

yay -S input-remapper-git
sudo systemctl enable --now input-remapper

Void

sudo xbps-install -S input-remapper
sudo ln -s /etc/sv/input-remapper /var/service
sudo sv up input-remapper

Other Distros

Figure out the packages providing those dependencies in your distro, and install them: python3-evdev ≥1.3.0, gtksourceview4, python3-devel, python3-pydantic, python3-dasbus, python3-psutil

You can also use pip to install some of them. Python packages need to be installed globally for the service to be able to import them. Don't use --user. Conda and such may also cause problems due to changed python paths and versions.

sudo pip install evdev pydantic dasbus PyGObject

git clone https://github.com/sezanzeb/input-remapper.git
cd input-remapper
sudo python3 -m install --root /
sudo systemctl enable --now input-remapper

For all other options and help, check python3 -m install --help

To uninstall:

sudo python3 -m install.uninstall
