This repository contains Flatpak build recipes of commonly shared modules and is intended to be used as a git submodule. Each submodule may include additional instructions to be used properly. Please check the folder containing that module to see if anything extra needs to be done.
To use shared modules for packaging an application, add the submodule:
git submodule add https://github.com/flathub/shared-modules.git
Then modules from this repository can be specified in an application manifest.
"modules": [ "shared-modules/SDL/SDL-1.2.15.json", ]
And for a YAML manifest:
modules: - shared-modules/SDL/SDL-1.2.15.json
To update the submodule:
git submodule update --remote --merge
To automate updates, dependabot can be used but please limit the update frequency to not more than once or twice a week.
To remove the submodule:
git submodule deinit -f -- shared-modules rm -rf .git/modules/shared-modules git rm -f shared-modules rm .gitmodules
We provide an automatic updating mechanism for submodules located here. In order to utilize it set up x-checker-data for your sources. They are checked for updates twice a month, on the 1st and 21st.
-
The module must be widely used on Flathub by actively maintained applications.
-
The module must not be provided by any current branch of the runtimes.
-
The module manifest must be in JSON format.
-
The manifest must be buildable with the latest stable and oldstable versions of the Freedesktop SDK runtime.
Please open a pull request with the module manifest and add yourself as a codeowner of that module.
