Fuzzy Clock for Gnome Shell

A human-readable clock for the gnome-shell panel.

Translated to English, Italian, German, French and Esperanto (read below if you want to contribute a translation).

Install

This extension can be installed from the official Gnome Extensions website.

Develop

Some npm commands are available to make development on this extension easier.

• npm run test to run the test suite;
• npm run lint and npm run lint:fix to run the linter (with optional auto-fixing of errors);
• npm run build to build the extension bundle;
• npm run install to install the extension locally (nb: requires a restart of the shell, which can be done via Alt+F2, command r);
• npm run logs to tail the logs of the Gnome shell, useful in case of errors.

How to contribute Translations

New translations are very welcome! If you want to contribute a translation, generate a .po file with the translated strings. You can start from an existing one (e.g., po/it.po) as a blueprint. There are great GUI tools for translations, like Poedit or the GNOME Translation Editor.

Some things to watch out for:

%0 refers to the current hour (should therefore be used in strings like Five past %0).

%1 refers to the next hour (use it in Quarter to %1, for example.)

To generate the machine-readable .mo translation files, place the <lang>.po file in the po/ directory and build the extension with:

$ npm run build

Note that gettext is required for this command to work.

Once the translations are ready, create a PR with your proposed changes.
