#### Linux flatpak
|
||||
First make sure you have `flatpak` and `flatpak-builder` installed. Follow the
|
||||
instructions for your distribution on [flathub](https://flatpak.org/setup/). The
|
||||
instructions there only cover the installation of `flatpak`, but
|
||||
`flatpak-builder` should be the same.
|
||||
|
||||
Once you have `flatpak` and `flatpak-builder` installed:
|
||||
```
|
||||
git clone git://github.com/Bitmessage/PyBitmessage.git
|
||||
cd PyBitmessage/
|
||||
git submodule add https://github.com/flathub/shared-modules.git
|
||||
flatpak-builder --install --user -install-deps-from=flathub --force-clean --state-dir=build/.flatpak-builder build/_flatpak org.bitmessage.PyBitmessage.json
|
||||
```
|
||||
This will install PyBitmessage to your local flatpak user repository, but it
|
||||
takes a while to compile because QT4 and PyQt4 have to be build, among others.
|
||||
|
||||
When done you can launch PyBitmessage via:
|
||||
`flatpak run -v org.bitmessage.PyBitmessage`
|
||||
|
||||
If you want to free up disk space you can remove the `Sdk` runtime again:
|
||||
`flatpak uninstall org.freedesktop.Sdk//18.08`
|
||||

# PyBitmessage Linux flatpak instructions
|
||||
_Some recent Linux distributions don't support QT4 anymore, hence PyBitmessage
|
||||
won't run with a GUI. However, if you build PyBitmessage as a flatpak, it will
|
||||
run in a sandbox which provides QT4.__
|
||||
|
||||
## Requirements
|
||||
First make sure you have `flatpak` and `flatpak-builder` installed. Follow the
|
||||
instructions for your distribution on [flathub](https://flatpak.org/setup/). The
|
||||
instructions there only cover the installation of `flatpak`, but
|
||||
`flatpak-builder` should be the same.
|
||||
|
||||
## Build and Install
|
||||
Once you have `flatpak` and `flatpak-builder` installed:
|
||||
```
|
||||
git clone git://github.com/Bitmessage/PyBitmessage.git
|
||||
cd PyBitmessage/
|
||||
git submodule add https://github.com/flathub/shared-modules.git
|
||||
flatpak-builder --install --user -install-deps-from=flathub --force-clean --state-dir=build/.flatpak-builder build/_flatpak org.bitmessage.PyBitmessage.json
|
||||
```
|
||||
This will install PyBitmessage to your local flatpak user repository, but it
|
||||
takes a while to compile because QT4 and PyQt4 have to be build, among others.
|
||||
|
||||
# Run
|
||||
When installation is done you can launch PyBitmessage via the **command line**:
|
||||
`flatpak run -v org.bitmessage.PyBitmessage`
|
||||
|
||||
Flatpak also exports a `.desktop` file, so you should be able to find and launch
|
||||
PyBitmessage via the **application launcher** of your Desktop (Gnome, KDE, ...).
|
||||
|
||||
# Export
|
||||
You can create a single file "bundle", which allows you to copy and install the
|
||||
PyBitmessage flatpak on other devices of the same architecture as the build machine.
|
||||
|
||||
## Create a local flatpak repository
|
||||
```
|
||||
flatpak-builder --repo=build/_flatpak_repo --force-clean --state-dir=build/.flatpak-builder build/_flatpak packages/flatpak/org.bitmessage.PyBitmessage.json
|
||||
```
|
||||
This will create a local flatpak repository in `build/_flatpak_repo/`.
|
||||
|
||||
## Create a bundle
|
||||
```
|
||||
flatpak build-bundle build/_flatpak_repo build/pybitmessage.flatpak org.bitmessage.PyBitmessage
|
||||
```
|
||||
This will create a `pybitmessage.flatpak` bundle file in the `build/` directory.
|
||||
|
||||
This bundle can be copied to other systems or installed locally:
|
||||
```
|
||||
flatpak install pybitmessage.flatpak
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
The application can be run using flatpak:
|
||||
```
|
||||
flatpak run org.bitmessage.PyBitmessage
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
It can then be uninstalled with this command:
|
||||
```
|
||||
flatpak uninstall org.bitmessage.PyBitmessage
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
This way of building an application is very convenient when preparing flatpaks
|
||||
for testing on another system of the same processor architecture.
|
||||
|
||||
## Cleanup
|
||||
If you want to free up disk space you can remove the `Sdk` runtime again:
|
||||
`flatpak uninstall org.freedesktop.Sdk//18.08`
|
||||
|
||||
You can also delete the `build` directory again.
