0fetch

tiny fetch tool written in x86 assembly

yea yea whatever, here are some bullet points:

• fast (duh)
• very small executable (less than 4KiB)
• no libc or any libraries
• 100% staticly linked
• no heap allocations
• nice cozy display
• fast as fuck
• very cool braille logo (it's kinda tuff)
• did i mention fast?

Okay but why?

Aside from it being conceptually cool, I mainly made this just to fuck with @NotAShelf and @amaanq.

Basically raf (@NotAShelf) made his own fetcher (microfetch) and claims it's very small and fast. I initially started this as a rewrite of microfetch, but later on I changed a couple other things to my liking.

Also I like code golfing.

How do I install it???

# add these to your flake inputs:
_0fetch.url = "github:peachey2k2/0fetch";
_0fetch.inputs.nixpkgs.follows = "nixpkgs-unstable";

# and this to your overlays
_0fetch = inputs._0fetch.packages.${system}.default;

# and this to your packages
0fetch

# (you'll also want nerdfonts)

and if you're not using flakes, literally why???

Tip

you can use nix run github:peachey2k2/0fetch to run it once without installing

alternatively if you wanna try it in an inferior distro for some reason:

1. clone the repo
2. run make build (you'll need fasm)
3. add it to your $PATH if you wanna (no logo cuz fuck you, just patch it smh)

But the benchmarks?????

#mogged #packwatch #ripbozo #RolledAndSmoked etc.

Want more stupid fancy tables? Go stare at microfetch's benchmarks.

But portability????????????

How do I customize???????????????

You don't. Just go use fastfetch like a normal person if you want that.

Or alternatively, write your own fetcher. Trust me it's not that hard.
