chargrid_graphical

A graphical frontend for chargrid which renders with wgpu.

Dependencies

Linux

On linux this renders with vulkan. You will need a vulkan loader and vulkan drivers installed in order to run graphical chargrid applications. This often takes the form of a library named "libvulkan.so". If you encounter the following error when running a graphical chargrid application it means you're missing a vulkan dependency:

Failed to initialize graphical context: FailedToRequestGraphicsAdapter

NixOS

The following shell.nix creates an environment in which graphical chargrid applications can be built and run:

with import <nixpkgs> {};
pkgs.mkShell {
  buildInputs = [
    gtk3 glib
    pkgconfig
    xorg.libX11
    vulkan-loader
  ];
  shellHook = ''
    export LD_LIBRARY_PATH="${vulkan-loader}/lib"
  '';
}
