Sets up bidirectional game streaming across Omarchy/Hyprland/Wayland machines (NVIDIA desktop and AMD Framework laptop), with the Macbook as an additional Moonlight client. The same install.sh runs on either machine; GPU vendor is detected at runtime and the appropriate hardware-encode packages are installed. Includes: - KMS capture setup (cap_sys_admin on sunshine, input group, uinput udev rule) - ufw / firewalld port opening when a firewall is active - systemd --user service + loginctl enable-linger for always-on hosting - uninstall.sh with --purge for user data removal - Flags to install host-only or client-only

# omarchy-moonlight
|
|
|
|
Idempotent install scripts that set up [Sunshine](https://github.com/LizardByte/Sunshine) (host) and [Moonlight](https://moonlight-stream.org/) (client) on Omarchy / Arch Linux / Hyprland / Wayland machines.
|
|
|
|
Designed so the same script runs on:
|
|
|
|
- a primary NVIDIA desktop (host + client)
|
|
- a Framework AMD laptop (host + client)
|
|
- any other Omarchy box
|
|
|
|
After install, the machine can both stream out (via Sunshine) and view streams (via Moonlight). A Macbook can install Moonlight separately and connect to either Linux host.
|
|
|
|
## Quick start
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
git clone <this-repo> ~/omarchy-moonlight
|
|
cd ~/omarchy-moonlight
|
|
./install.sh
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Then:
|
|
|
|
1. **Log out and back in** if you weren't already in the `input` group (the installer adds you; the group only takes effect on a fresh login).
|
|
2. Open <https://localhost:47990> and set a Sunshine username + password.
|
|
3. On a Moonlight client (Mac / phone / the other Linux box), add this host by LAN IP and enter the PIN that Sunshine's web UI shows during pairing.
|
|
|
|
## What it does
|
|
|
|
- Installs `sunshine` and `moonlight-qt` from the AUR via `yay`
|
|
- Adds your user to the `input` group
|
|
- Drops a `/etc/udev/rules.d/60-uinput.rules` if no equivalent rule exists (so Sunshine can use `/dev/uinput` for virtual gamepad/keyboard/mouse)
|
|
- Runs `setcap cap_sys_admin+p` on the `sunshine` binary so KMS screen capture works without root
|
|
- Installs GPU-vendor encoder packages:
|
|
- NVIDIA: `nvidia-utils`, `libva-nvidia-driver`
|
|
- AMD: `libva-mesa-driver`, `mesa-vdpau`, `vulkan-radeon`
|
|
- Intel: `intel-media-driver`, `vulkan-intel`
|
|
- Opens Sunshine's LAN ports on `firewalld` / `ufw` if either is active (skips silently otherwise)
|
|
- Enables `sunshine.service` under systemd `--user` and turns on `loginctl enable-linger` so the host is reachable without a graphical login
|
|
|
|
Re-running is safe — every step is "check, then act."
|
|
|
|
## Flags
|
|
|
|
```text
|
|
./install.sh --no-autostart # install but don't enable the user service
|
|
./install.sh --no-firewall # skip firewall rules
|
|
./install.sh --no-moonlight # host-only (no client)
|
|
./install.sh --no-sunshine # client-only (no host)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Use the precompiled Sunshine package
|
|
|
|
The default uses `sunshine` from the AUR, which builds from source (slow on first install). To use the precompiled `sunshine-bin` instead:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
SUNSHINE_PKG=sunshine-bin ./install.sh
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Uninstall
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
./uninstall.sh # remove packages + udev rule, keep user data
|
|
./uninstall.sh --purge # also delete ~/.config/sunshine
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## How streaming works once it's set up
|
|
|
|
- **Host (Sunshine) ports** (auto-opened if a firewall is active):
|
|
- TCP: `47984 47989 47990 48010`
|
|
- UDP: `47998 47999 48000 48010`
|
|
- **Pairing**: on first connect, Moonlight shows a PIN. Type it into Sunshine's web UI (<https://localhost:47990> → PIN tab) within a few seconds.
|
|
- **Capture mode**: this script configures KMS capture, which streams whatever is on the host's real monitor. A virtual-display mode (so streaming doesn't take over the desk) is a future addition — see `remote/` notes when it lands.
|
|
|
|
## Diagnostics
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
systemctl --user status sunshine
|
|
journalctl --user -u sunshine -f
|
|
getcap "$(readlink -f "$(command -v sunshine)")" # should include cap_sys_admin
|
|
id -nG | tr ' ' '\n' | grep -x input # confirm group membership
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
If Moonlight pairs but the stream is black:
|
|
|
|
- Confirm you're in the `input` group **in a freshly logged-in session** (not just listed in `/etc/group`).
|
|
- Confirm `getcap` shows `cap_sys_admin` on the sunshine binary.
|
|
- Check `journalctl --user -u sunshine` for `KMS` / `DRM` errors. On NVIDIA, ensure the proprietary driver is active (`nvidia-smi`).
|
|
|
|
## Remote access (planned)
|
|
|
|
LAN-only for now. Remote access will be added later via one of: Tailscale, WireGuard, or Cloudflare. See `remote/` (stub) when implemented.
