Integrate into linuxdeployqt #9

Open probonopd opened 5 years ago

probonopd commented 5 years ago

I would like to integrate this into linuxdeployqt so that linuxdeployqt users must do nothing special to get the update functionality for their Qt apps automatically.

For this, it would be necessary that updatedeployqt needs no input but can automatically guess everything. Is that possible?

users must do nothing special to get the update functionality for their Qt apps automatically.

Are you saying that using linuxdeployqt will automatically embed this plugin without any option for the developer(opt-out when you need which most developers will not do in the first try)? I highly advice you don't do that. Not all developers want their Qt Application invaded by some AppImage feature. In terms of freedom , its bad.

Opt-out would be fine for me.
