Installing on ArchLinux

See original GitHub issue

Hi I went to install bloop on arch and was unable to run bloop.

I did the following

yay -Sy bloop
$ systemctl --user enable bloop

Which gave me the error:

Failed to enable unit: Unit file bloop.service does not exist.

When I try to run the console I get:

$ bloop
error: Missing CLI command for Bloop server!

Everything seems to be installed though because I can do bloop compile <project> which gives me:

Compiled myproject (14431ms)
[E] Failed to compile 'myproject'

@TheElectronWill will that fix the CLI error as well?
$ bloop
error: Missing CLI command for Bloop server!

I think that one is because you need to provide a command for Bloop to run.

error: Missing CLI command for Bloop server! is valid here due to the fact that indeed no command is provided. Happens the same if it’s installed via courier.

As explained on AUR, the systemd service is no longer (for quite some time now) included in the bloop package. You need to install bloop-systemd in addition to bloop.
