Yet Another Framework Interface

YAFI is another GUI for the Framework Laptop Embedded Controller. It is written in Python with a GTK4 Adwaita theme, and uses the CrOS_EC_Python library to communicate with the EC.

It has support for fan control, temperature monitoring, LED control, and battery limiting.

Installation

udev Rules (MUST READ)

To allow YAFI to communicate with the EC, you need to copy the 60-cros_ec_python.rules file to /etc/udev/rules.d/ and reload the rules with sudo udevadm control --reload-rules && sudo udevadm trigger.

Flatpak

Build and install the Flatpak package with flatpak-builder --install --user build au.stevetech.yafi.json.

You can also create a flatpak bundle with flatpak-builder --repo=repo build au.stevetech.yafi.json and install it with flatpak install --user repo au.stevetech.yafi.flatpak.

Pip

System Dependencies

The following system dependencies are required for PyGObject:

• python3-dev
• libcairo2-dev
• libgirepository-2.0-dev
• gir1.2-adw-1

There's probably more, but I happened to have them installed.

Install

Install the package with pip install git+https://github.com/Steve-Tech/YAFI.git.

Pipx is also supported.
