This is a web application to browse and install applications present in Flatpak repositories. It began as a personal proof of concept but its used in https://flathub.org since April 2018.
The web app obtains data calling a remote REST API implemented in linux-store-backend
There is a development server where we test new stuff.
First of all thanks for considering contributing to this project!
Pull request are welcome. Please, create an issue fist explaining what you want to do and how. Do the same for existing issues.
This project was generated with Angular CLI
Steps to run this app locally:
Install Node.js LTS (10.13.X at this time) or newer.
We find useful using nvm to install and manage multiple Node.js versions:
apt-get install curl build-essential libssl-dev libsass-devdnf install make automake gcc gcc-c++ openssl-devel libsass libsass-develrpm-ostree install make automake gcc gcc-c++ openssl-devel libsass libsass-develcurl -o- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nvm-sh/nvm/v0.35.3/install.sh | bash
source "$HOME"/.bashrc
nvm install --lts=fermium nvm use --delete-prefix v14.15.2 to unset it.nvm use --delete-prefix v14.15.2 npm config delete prefix npm config set prefix $NVM_DIR/versions/node/v14.15.2
nvm use lts/fermium nvm alias default lts/fermium
nvm ls -> v14.15.3 default -> lts/fermium (-> v14.15.3) node -> stable (-> v14.15.3) (default) stable -> 14.15 (-> v14.15.3) (default) iojs -> N/A (default) unstable -> N/A (default) lts/* -> lts/fermium (-> v14.15.3) lts/argon -> v4.9.1 (-> N/A) lts/boron -> v6.17.1 (-> N/A) lts/carbon -> v8.17.0 (-> N/A) lts/dubnium -> v10.23.0 (-> N/A) lts/erbium -> v12.20.0 (-> N/A) lts/fermium -> v14.15.3
Install angular-cli:
npm install -g @angular/cliGo to the root of this project and install the javascript dependencies:
npm installStart the webapp running the command npm start. This will compile the code and start a local dev server. Navigate to http://localhost:4200/ to see the webapp running!
The app will automatically reload if you change any of the source files.
If the app doesn't update automatically on every change in the code it might be because of this issue related to the inotify limits. I've done this to fix it in Fedora Silverblue:
sudo vi /etc/sysctl.d/99-sysctl.conf
# Increase the inotify watches limit to fix change detection
# problems with Angular
fs.inotify.max_user_watches=65536
sudo sysctl -p --system
cat /proc/sys/fs/inotify/max_user_watches

I've been trying to make this app themable (still a work in progress) using the facilities provided by Angular Material. Read next links for more info:
To get started with hacking the app the following tools are very helpful:
I welcome friendly issues and feature requests. Keep in mind that this is a personal project that I do in my spare time.
