Generates thumbnails from Nintendo Switch (homebrew) executables for view in your Linux file manager (Nautilus/Nemo/Caja/...).

It comes with a special border as a bonus feature.

Installation

Prequisites:

freeimage (image conversion and resizing)
shared-mime-info (to add the needed mime type)

To install:

$ cmake . [-DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr]
$ make install

Packagers may want to use the $DESTDIR variable and need to call update-mime-database after installation.

User guide

nro-thumbnailer [OPTIONS]

Options:
  -h,--help                   Print this help message and exit
  --config FILE=~/.config/nro-thumbnailer.conf
                              Configuration file

Files:
  -i,--input FILE             Input file
  -o,--output FILE            Output file

Configuration:
  -s,--size UINT=128          Thumbnail image height
  -b,--border                 Add border around thumbnail
  -m,--max-skip UINT=10       Maximum executable size (in MB)

GNOME/GTK3 integration will be installed by default, so file managers should start creating thumbnails after restarting them. However, you may need to enable thumbnail generation itself first. Check your file manager settings and manual for additional information.

Configuration

You can create $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/nro-thumbnailer.conf (usually $HOMR/.config/nro-thumbnailer.conf) and define default options there:

size=200
border=true
max-skip=25
