FLATPAK BUILD-EXPOR(1) | flatpak build-export | FLATPAK BUILD-EXPOR(1) |
NAME¶
flatpak-build-export - Create a repository from a build directory
SYNOPSIS¶
flatpak build-export [OPTION...] LOCATION DIRECTORY [BRANCH]
DESCRIPTION¶
Creates or updates a repository with an application build. LOCATION is the location of the repository. DIRECTORY must be a finalized build directory. If BRANCH is not specified, it is assumed to be "master".
If LOCATION exists, it is assumed to be an OSTree repository, otherwise a new OSTree repository is created at this location. The repository can be inspected with the ostree tool.
The contents of DIRECTORY are committed on the branch with name app/APPNAME/ARCH/BRANCH, where ARCH is the architecture of the runtime that the application is using. A commit filter is used to enforce that only the contents of the files/ and export/ subdirectories and the metadata file are included in the commit, anything else is ignored.
When exporting a flatpak to be published to the internet, --collection-id=COLLECTION-ID should be specified as a globally unique reverse DNS value to identify the collection of flatpaks this will be added to. Setting a globally unique collection ID allows the apps in the repository to be shared over peer to peer systems without needing further configuration.
The build-update-repo command should be used to update repository metadata whenever application builds are added to a repository.
