extras

there are some files in extra/ to help you run it.

• i3/config - barebones configuration for i3 window manager to start a web browser and manage the display's power.
• scripts/catsign_listener.sh - the cat signal is our occupancy indicator at layer zero. this script checks every minute whether it is turned on, and puts the display to sleep if it's off.
• scripts/dev.sh - run this in the background when you are developing omnibus to automatically compile and run when changes are made.
• scripts/update.sh - this will pull the latest code (assuming you cloned the git repo), compile, and install it to /usr/sbin/omnibus. you could run a cronjob to check for changes every hour, for example.
• omnibus.service - place this systemd unit file in /etc/systemd/system/ and you can have it start on system boot with sudo systemctl enable --now omnibus.
