Installation

To build and install the application, ensure you have Go installed and the necessary dependencies for Fyne (see Fyne's Getting Started guide).

Using Makefile (Recommended on Linux)

To build, install or uninstall system-wide:

make
sudo make install
sudo make uninstall

This will install the binary to /usr/local/bin, translation files to /usr/local/share/wine-logger/i18n, and a desktop entry to /usr/local/share/applications.

Manual Build

go build -o wine-logger main.go

If building manually, ensure the i18n directory is in the same folder as the binary or in one of the supported system paths.

Usage

Run the compiled binary:

./wine-logger

• Edit: Modify existing batch details.
• Note: Add or update notes for a specific batch.
• Add Photo: Attach photos to your logs.
• Dec: Decrement the bottle count for a batch.
• Menu: View current inventory in a paper-imitation layout.
