Roadmap

Here are features that are planned for the future:

• System message slot for displaying a message following a script or such (not randomized) [0.3.x]
• Add CLI commands to customize the banner without touching the config file itself [0.4]

How to try

Download it from the releases page

You can download the latest release from the releases page.

You can then rename it to uwelcome and place it in your usual /bin folder.

Note: You won't receive automatic updates, you will have to download uWelcome at each new release.

Compile from source

You'll need to have go installed on your system to compile uWelcome from source.

Then you'll have to simply clone the repository and then build the binary:

git clone https://github.com/theMimolet/uwelcome
cd uwelcome
go build
./uwelcome

You'll then have the uwelcome binary in the current directory, which you can just drop into your usual /bin folder and it will work without any further setup (except for the configuration file if you want to customize it).

Commands

uWelcome supports the following commands (for now):

toggle  - Toggles the MOTD on or off for the current user
enable  - Always enables the MOTD for the current user
disable - Always disables the MOTD for the current user
version - Displays the version of uWelcome currently in use
