This repository contains a number of commandline utilities for use inside Flatpak sandboxes. They work by talking to portals.

Currently, there is flatpak-spawn for running commands in sandboxes as well as xdg-open and xdg-email, which are compatible with the well-known scripts of the same name.

Everything else in xdg-utils is not provided. That includes xdg-settings and xdg-mime as they deal with settings that Flatpaks do not have access or control to.

See https://flatpak.org/ for more information.

Installation

This repository uses meson to build. Just do
