Linux Flatpak package of vimix
|
|
================================
|
|
|
|
## Prerequirement: install flatpak
|
|
|
|
Instructions are at https://flatpak.org/setup/
|
|
|
|
e.g. for Ubuntu:
|
|
|
|
sudo apt install flatpak
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Install vimix releases from Flathub
|
|
|
|
If you followed all instructions of the [flatpak setup](https://flatpak.org/setup/), vimix should be in the list of packages.
|
|
|
|
flatpak install vimix
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Build local beta flatpack package of vimix
|
|
|
|
If you want to have the latest developper version of vimix (before releases), you can build a vimix flatpak yourself. This way, the application vimix is still sandboxed (i.e. not installing libs in your system), removable (entirely free space after remove) and updatable (just re-compile to update).
|
|
|
|
### 1. Install flatpak build environments
|
|
|
|
If not already installed, install the builder and the flathub repository:
|
|
|
|
sudo apt install flatpak-builder
|
|
flatpak remote-add --if-not-exists flathub https://flathub.org/repo/flathub.flatpakrepo
|
|
|
|
Install the runtime environments:
|
|
|
|
flatpak install org.freedesktop.Sdk/x86_64/25.08
|
|
flatpak install org.freedesktop.Platform/x86_64/25.08
|
|
|
|
These settings of git are needed to enable clone of local repos during build (done only once):
|
|
|
|
git config --global --add protocol.file.allow always
|
|
|
|
### 2. Build vimix flatpak
|
|
|
|
Launch the build of the flatpak:
|
|
|
|
flatpak-builder --user --install --from-git=https://github.com/brunoherbelin/vimix.git --from-git-branch=beta --delete-build-dirs --force-clean build flatpak/io.github.brunoherbelin.Vimix.json
|
|
|
|
The build will be quite long as some dependencies are also re-build from source. However, the build of dependencies is kept in cache; rebuilding vimix will subsequently be much faster.
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Run vimix flatpak
|
|
|
|
If all goes well, the package will have been generated and be able to run. The vimix app icon should be available.
|
|
|
|
To run from command line:
|
|
|
|
flatpak run io.github.brunoherbelin.Vimix
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Uninstall vimix flatpak
|
|
|
|
flatpak uninstall vimix
|
|
|
