## Dependencies | ||
|
||
- Install Git from https://git-scm.com/download | ||
- Install Node.JS LTS from here: https://nodejs.dev/en/ | ||
|
||
## Installing Vencord | ||
|
||
> :exclamation: If this doesn't work, see [Manually Installing Vencord](#manually-installing-vencord) | ||
Install `pnpm`: | ||
|
||
> :exclamation: this may need to be run as admin depending on your system, and you may need to close and reopen your terminal. | ||
```shell | ||
npm i -g pnpm | ||
``` | ||
|
||
Clone Vencord: | ||
|
||
```shell | ||
git clone https://github.com/Vendicated/Vencord | ||
cd Vencord | ||
``` | ||
|
||
Install dependencies: | ||
|
||
```shell | ||
pnpm install | ||
``` | ||
|
||
Build Vencord: | ||
|
||
```shell | ||
pnpm build | ||
``` | ||
|
||
Inject vencord into your client: | ||
|
||
```shell | ||
pnpm inject | ||
``` | ||
|
||
Then fully close Discord from your taskbar or task manager, and restart it. Vencord should be injected - you can check this by looking for the Vencord section in Discord settings. | ||
|
||
## Updating Vencord | ||
|
||
If you're using Discord already, go into the `Updater` tab in settings. | ||
|
||
Sometimes it may be neccessary to manually update if the GUI updater fails. | ||
|
||
To pull latest changes: | ||
|
||
```shell | ||
git pull | ||
``` | ||
|
||
If this fails, you likely need to reset your local changes to vencord to resolve merge errors: | ||
|
||
> :exclamation: This command will remove any local changes you've made to vencord. Make sure you back up if you made any code changes you don't want to lose! | ||
```shell | ||
git reset --hard | ||
git pull | ||
``` | ||
|
||
and then to build the changes: | ||
|
||
```shell | ||
pnpm build | ||
``` | ||
|
||
Then just refresh your client | ||
|
||
## Uninstalling Vencord | ||
|
||
Simply run: | ||
|
||
```shell | ||
pnpm uninject | ||
``` | ||
|
||
The above command may ask you to also run: | ||
|
||
```shell | ||
pnpm install | ||
pnpm uninject | ||
``` | ||
|
||
## Manually Installing Vencord | ||
|
||
- [Windows](#on-windows) | ||
- [Linux](#on-linux) | ||
- [MacOS](#on-macos) | ||
|
||
### On Windows | ||
|
||
Press Win+R and enter: `%LocalAppData%` and hit enter. In this page, find the page (Discord, DiscordPTB, DiscordCanary, etc) that you want to patch. | ||
|
||
Now follow the instructions at [Manual Patching](#manual-patching) | ||
|
||
### On Linux | ||
|
||
The Discord folder is usually in one of the following paths: | ||
|
||
- /usr/share | ||
- /usr/lib64 | ||
- /opt | ||
- /home/$USER/.local/share | ||
|
||
If you use flatpak, it will usually be in one of the following paths: | ||
|
||
- /var/lib/flatpak/app/com.discordapp.Discord/current/active/files | ||
- /home/$USER/.local/share/flatpak/app/com.discordapp.Discord/current/active/files | ||
|
||
You will need to give flatpak access to vencord with one of the following commands: | ||
|
||
> :exclamation: If not on stable, replace `com.discordapp.Discord` with your branch name, e.g., `com.discordapp.DiscordCanary` | ||
> :exclamation: Replace `/path/to/vencord/` with the path to your vencord folder (NOT the dist folder) | ||
If Discord flatpak install is in /home/: | ||
|
||
```shell | ||
flatpak override --user com.discordapp.Discord --filesystem="/path/to/vencord/" | ||
``` | ||
|
||
If Discord flatpak install not in /home/: | ||
|
||
```shell | ||
sudo flatpak override com.discordapp.Discord --filesystem="/path/to/vencord" | ||
``` | ||
|
||
Now follow the instructions at [Manual Patching](#manual-patching) | ||
|
||
### On MacOS | ||
|
||
Open finder and go to your Applications folder. Right-Click on the Discord application you want to patch, and view contents. | ||
|
||
Go to the `Contents/Resources` folder. | ||
|
||
Now follow the instructions at [Manual Patching](#manual-patching) | ||
|
||
### Manual Patching | ||
|
||
> :exclamation: If using Flatpak on linux, go to the folder that contains the `app.asar` file, and skip to where we create the `app` folder below. | ||
> :exclamation: On Linux/MacOS, there's a chance there won't be an `app-<number>` folder, but there probably is a `resources` folder, so keep reading :) | ||
Inside there, look for the `app-<number>` folders. If you have multiple, use the highest number. If that doesn't work, do it for the rest of the `app-<number>` folders. | ||
|
||
Inside there, go to the `resources` folder. There should be a file called `app.asar`. If there isn't, look at a different `app-<number>` folder instead. | ||
|
||
Make a new folder in `resources` called `app`. In here, we will make two files: | ||
|
||
`package.json` and `index.js` | ||
|
||
In `index.js`: | ||
|
||
> :exclamation: Replace the path in the first line with the path to `patcher.js` in your vencord dist folder. | ||
> On Windows, you can get this by shift-rightclicking the patcher.js file and selecting "copy as path" | ||
```js | ||
require("C:/Users/<your user>/path/to/vencord/dist/patcher.js"); | ||
require("../app.asar"); | ||
``` | ||
|
||
And in `package.json`: | ||
|
||
```json | ||
{ "name": "discord", "main": "index.js" } | ||
``` | ||
|
||
Finally, fully close & reopen your Discord client and check to see that `Vencord` appears in settings! | ||
|
||
### Manually Uninstalling Vencord | ||
|
||
> :exclamation: Do not delete `app.asar` - Only delete the `app` folder we created. | ||
Use the instructions above to find the `app` folder, and delete it. Then Close & Reopen Discord. | ||
|
||
