Feature Request : Flatpak option

P4prik4 commented 4 years ago

having difficulty with appimage atm. using chromeos with crouton. I tried blender's flatpak but it runs slow (cheap processor) this would probably be my best bet for lightweight app to study 3d modelling.
being able to find this over at flathub.org would be awesome. thanks

Hi @P4prik4 Thanks for the suggestion, flatpak looks interesting, I will do some research on it in the future. BTW, what's the issue with AppImage please?

BTW, what's the issue with AppImage please?

Some people prefer Flatpak for various reasons:

Flatpaks can be installed from a central repository such as Flathub using the included flatpak CLI.
- Flathub's Flatpak manifests are publicly available, which means you can also build them locally. This is a good thing for reproducibility.
Built-in support for delta updates to decrease the bandwidth required (easier to get working compared to AppImage).
Flatpaks are sandboxed, which results in better security.
Flatpaks are built on common "runtimes" rather than a moving target (AppImages are typically built on an old Ubuntu LTS version). This can be used to reduce individual Flatpak file sizes since common libraries are inclued in the runtime.

@Calinou Thanks, looks like Flatpak is very promising, I am happy to ship Dust3D to Flatpak while keep AppImage in the release (Because it's very handy to use). Although I don't get a hand on this at the moment, if some one could help that would be very appreciated.

jeteokeeffe commented 4 years ago

I'd like to help. I'm close to getting this working but I've run into an error trying to build the flatpak. Can someone explain the error.

Running (flatpak-builder --install-deps-from=flathub --install --force-clean flatpak-dir org.dust3d.dust3d.json)

Hi @jeteokeeffe thanks, the instant-meshes need to be built separately:

  - cd thirdparty/instant-meshes
  - mkdir build
  - cd build
  - cmake ../
  - make -j 4
  - cd ../../../

The tbb_static is a dependency of instant-meshes, have you checked .travis.yml?That's the build script to build AppImage. I can see you already configured some modules, such as cgal (although there is a typo in the name), I am not sure where these modules will be installed, and you may need let the dust3d.pro known the header and lib paths. Maybe need to do some change to dust3d.pro

jeteokeeffe commented 4 years ago

https://github.com/huxingyi/dust3d/pull/60

I'm not 100% sure what permissions the application needs but if you have issues, let me know and I'm sure I can correct them.

You'll need to follow these steps to get your app on flathub (only the owner of the repo can do that). https://github.com/flathub/flathub/wiki/App-Submission#how-to-submit-an-app

huxingyi commented 4 years ago

@jeteokeeffe Wow, that's great, thanks! Will read the link and your PR later.

huxingyi commented 4 years ago

Hi @jeteokeeffe Do you know how to use a hash such as 31957c07002c4b67440680a26b20fec60998da3e instead of a tag as the build target please? Your last fix is not in tag 1.0.0-rc.6, I am not sure how to include your changes into Flatpak Manifest file. Thanks.

jeteokeeffe commented 4 years ago

I do, I believe it's already set in my fork. The reason for the delay is flatpak build is complaining about the icon. It's either not in the right place or not the proper size.When I get a chance, I'm going to spend some time on that.

huxingyi commented 4 years ago

Thanks, no rush.

huxingyi commented 4 years ago

Thanks everyone, especially @jeteokeeffe Dust3D is on flathub now, https://flathub.org/apps/details/org.dust3d.dust3d
