Taildrop Wrapper

A small script around the Tailscale CLI for easier Taildropping on Linux

Usage

This script is made to be as simple as possible:
Just provide the file you want to send and the script will open a popup where you can select the device you want to send it to.

taildrop_wrapper <file(s)>

Installation

You will need the Dart SDK to build the script.
And make sure you have yad and tailscale installed before running the script.

Then, just clone the repository and run make or make build. This will compile the script.
After that, you can run sudo make install to actually install the script to /usr/local/bin.

You can even integrate it with your file manager(s) by running make fm-integrate.

Currently supported file managers are:

• Thunar: Right click something, and select Send To > Taildrop
• Please feel free to PR more!

git clone https://github.com/TechnicJelle/taildrop_wrapper.git
cd taildrop_wrapper
make
sudo make install
make fm-integrate

Uninstallation

To uninstall the script, just run sudo make uninstall.

You can also remove the file manager integration(s) by running make fm-integration-uninstall.
