Add junest-export #322

Closed ivan-hc closed 6 months ago

ivan-hc commented 1 year ago

This is the first draft of a tool to export apps inside Junest to the local home directory (strongly inspired to distrobox-export), it only works for ~/.junest and does not do much:

  1. copy the launcher from ~/.junest/usr/share/applications to ~/.local/share/applications (the internal "Exec=" is changed in the meantime, from $appbinary the string become sh -c '~/.local/share/junest/bin/junest -- $appbinary');
  2. ~/.junest/usr/share/icons/hicolor is synlinked to ~/.local/share/icons (I was too lazy to improve this), but if this is not enough, the icon will be found and copied from ~/.junest/usr/share/pixmaps.

I hope you look, edit and improve this feature, this helps me very much when I have to export my apps to my Debian host, I want to help you too.

Cheers.

Hi @ivan-hc !

Thanks for the great work. The PR sounds a good idea. I will have a look and try it when I get a chance, very busy lately :/

Ideally I'd like to keep a high standard on code to include tests and documentation. If you do not have time for that, no worries I will try to do it when I can later on.

Thanks again!
