AppImage Release #128

Closed pktiuk closed 4 years ago

pktiuk commented 4 years ago

I have created Workflow creating AppImage file (allows running antimicroX on multiple linux distributions without installation). It is published here https://github.com/pktiuk/antimicroX/releases/tag/AppimageTestv2 My working branch: https://github.com/pktiuk/antimicroX/tree/building_appimage

I think that before opening Pull Request i think it would be good to test it on other distributions of linux.

I have tested it on debian based: Ubuntu 20.04, Ubuntu 18.04 and linux Mint 19.1 It would be good if someone would check it on Fedora-based or Arch-based linux.

To check if does it work just:

wget https://github.com/pktiuk/antimicroX/releases/download/AppimageTest/antimicroX-x86_64.AppImage
chmod +x antimicroX-x86_64.AppImage
./antimicroX-x86_64.AppImage

And then report if does it work on your system.

Current status of issue:

juliagoda commented 4 years ago

Okay, just let me catch my breath, because I'm doing something else temporarily

pktiuk commented 4 years ago

Don't worry, we don't have any deadlines. For now just add these tags. Take your time. :smile: I will deal with everything else, but just need some help with testing on different systems.

juliagoda commented 4 years ago

Ok it works on Arch Linux

pktiuk commented 4 years ago

Good, today i have finished updating mechanism. Everything is ready to merge https://github.com/juliagoda/antimicroX/pull/129

Later I will add AntimicroX to AppImageHub

pktiuk commented 4 years ago

One of requirements to add our app to AppImageHub is having version compatibile with Ubuntu 16.04 (the oldest still-supported Ubuntu LTS release), but AntiMicroX doesn't compile on Ubuntu 16.04. (Currently AppImage is compiled on 18.04 to ensure compatibility with older systems)

@juliagoda Maybe you should draft new (at least minor or pre-) release, just to build an AppImage and make it accessible for users?

You could also grab and add AppImage from my repo to resources, if you don't want to publish new release yet.

I am talking in context of this issue: https://github.com/juliagoda/antimicroX/issues/147

pktiuk commented 4 years ago

Because of ending maintenance of AntiMicroX on this repository further submitting AppImage release to AppImageHub will now be tracked in new AntiMicroX repository via issue: https://github.com/AntiMicroX/antimicroX/issues/2
