Locker is a screensaver.
It can be extended through authentication backends, additional animations, and general-purpose plug-ins.
Locker is part of the DeforaOS Project, found at https://www.defora.org/.
Locker depends on the following components:
- Gtk+ 2.4 or later, or Gtk+ 3.0 or later
- DeforaOS libDesktop
- an implementation of
make - gettext (libintl) for translations
- DocBook-XSL for the manual pages
- GTK-Doc for the API documentation
With these installed, the following command should be enough to compile and install Locker on most systems:
$ make install
To install (or package) Locker in a different location, use the PREFIX option
as follows:
$ make PREFIX="/another/prefix" install
Locker also supports DESTDIR, to be installed in a staging directory; for
instance:
$ make DESTDIR="/staging/directory" PREFIX="/another/prefix" install
The compilation process supports a number of other options, such as OBJDIR for compilation outside of the source tree for instance.
On some systems, the Makefiles shipped may have to be re-generated accordingly. This can be performed with the DeforaOS configure tool.
Manual pages for each of the executables installed are available in the doc
folder. They are written in the DocBook-XML format, and need libxslt and
DocBook-XSL to be installed for conversion to the HTML or man file format.
Likewise, the API reference for Locker (plug-ins) is available in the
doc/gtkdoc folder, and is generated using gtk-doc.
Plug-ins for the Locker program can be written according to the API definitions
installed and found in <Desktop/Locker/*.h> (in the source code in the
include/Locker/*.h files).
Sample plug-ins can be found in src/auth/template.c, src/demos/template.c,
and src/plugins/template.c.
Further plug-ins may also be found in the DeforaOS Integration project.
