Snap/Appimage format #204

Open dnet890 opened 3 years ago

dnet890 commented 3 years ago

Hi I think this app will be great if we have snap/appimage format. Is this possible?

K0-RR commented 3 years ago

Snap and Appimage are entirely different formats so it's much work for devs but I agree that appimage would be good. Snap is shit and there already is a flatpak package so there is no need.

Flatpak is our official package and distribution format. Any other format can be crated/maintained by the community.

I'm not familiar with Appimage, but I guess we could make it if could be auto generated with some CI. As long as that doesn't take us too much time. We already have limited time to work on the actual software.

@rafaelmardojai See: https://github.com/flameshot-org/flameshot/blob/master/.github/workflows/Linux-pack.yml#L420-L549

That may have all you need to know for packaging as an appimage. See if that works for you.
