## Install
|
||||
|
||||
If you installed the application via a package manager, it's ready to use in your system. Please follow the [User Guide](#user-guide) for further information.
|
||||
|
||||
Otherwise, first locate the extracted directory in your desired directory (e.g. `/opt/mattermost-desktop-<VERSION>`) and follow the steps below.
|
||||
|
||||
### Desktop launcher
|
||||
|
||||
Execute the script file to create a `Mattermost.desktop` file.
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
/opt/mattermost-desktop-<VERSION>/create_desktop_file.sh
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Then move it to the appropriate directory of your desktop environment. For example, on Ubuntu Unity it's `~/.local/share/applications/` for the current user.
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
mv Mattermost.desktop ~/.local/share/applications/
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Terminal command
|
||||
|
||||
Set a `PATH` environment variable to enable launching from the terminal. For example, you can append the following line into `~/.bashrc`.
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
# assuming that /opt/mattermost-desktop-<VERSION>/mattermost-desktop is the executable file.
|
||||
export PATH=$PATH:/opt/mattermost-desktop-<VERSION>
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Alternatively, you can also create a symbolic link for the application.
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
sudo ln -s /opt/mattermost-desktop-<VERSION>/mattermost-desktop /usr/local/bin/
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
You're now all set! See the [User Guide](#user-guide) below for instructions.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
## User Guide
|
||||
|
||||
After launching, you need to configure the application to interact with your team.
|
||||
|
||||
1. If you don't see a page titled "Settings", select **File** > **Settings...** from the menu bar.
|
||||
2. Click **Add new team** next to the right of Team Management section.
|
||||
3. Enter **Name** and a valid **URL**, which begins with either `http://` or `https://`.
|
||||
4. Click **Add**.
|
||||
5. Click **Save**.
|
||||
