Installing snug

Status @ 2025-03-15: there is a build of snug being done on Forgejo but it’ snot being uploaded anywhere yet.

Typically, one would clone the https://code.bearcove.cloud/snug repository to ~/bearcove/snug, then run just run, which will do all the building required:



snug on  main [$] via 🦀 v1.85.0
❯ just run
    Finished `release` profile [optimized + debuginfo] target(s) in 0.47s
Usage: snug <COMMAND>

Commands:
  serve  Serves the site
  mom    Serves mom
  term   Records a terminal session with colors, ready to paste into markdown
  init   Initializes the project
  help   Print this message or the help of the given subcommand(s)

Options:
  -h, --help  Print help
error: Recipe `run` failed with exit code 2

…and after that, put in ~/.cargo/bin/snug a launcher script like so:

#!/bin/bash
pushd ~/bearcove/snug > /dev/null
export DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH="$(rustc --print target-libdir)"
popd > /dev/null
export DYLO_BUILD=0
export PROFILE=release
~/bearcove/snug/target/run/${PROFILE}/snug "$@"

Make it executable, and take it for a spin:



snug-from-scratch on  main
❯ chmod +x ~/.cargo/bin/snug

snug-from-scratch on  main
❯ which snug
/Users/amos/.cargo/bin/snug

snug-from-scratch on  main
❯ snug help
Usage: snug <COMMAND>

Commands:
  serve  Serves the site
  mom    Serves mom
  term   Records a terminal session with colors, ready to paste into markdown
  init   Initializes the project
  help   Print this message or the help of the given subcommand(s)

Options:
  -h, --help  Print help

Now, let’s set up a fresh snug site
