AppImage for Floorp (I made one so others can learn how to do it and maybe the devs can automate the making of it #1368
Comments
Decided to make a bash script to automate making an appimage while on linux at least. Can be downloaded here: Will need to click the little download icon to download the archive. It's only in an archive because I included the AppDir template which is a lot of files to make making the appimage easier. This script will find and fetch latest Floorp for 64bit Linux, then package an appimage of it. To get a new appimage, delete old appimage and run the script again. |
I would swear there was an appimage request in the discussion section with several comments here but I can't find it anymore. I ended up moving to zen browser, they even provide x86-64 v3 appimage. Btw, try to use AppImage/appimagetool instead of AppImageKit as the later is outdated while the newer one makes an appimage with the static runtime (doesn't need libfuse2 anymore) and uses zstd compression which provides faster startup times and slightly smaller appimages. |
Hey. I cannot access your share link |
oops fixed it |
I will try to automate it with GitHub workflow |
It's also possible to use Nix-AppImage to create it, I have done it here:
To test a premade build: However, due to issues like: ralismark/nix-appimage#10 |
Worth noting that this also already happens with flatpak to all firefox and firefox based browsers as mentioned here. So indeed best method is actually have an official appimage like how firedragon is making one as well from a portable build, in that case the sandbox will work. |
Summary
Here is an AppImage of Floorp:
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1P_ZeqPjtWn5_NoRzLKRlgHVvuZI2luAh/view?usp=sharing
You can unpack it via ./filename.appimage --appimage-extract
You can pack it with appimagetool:
https://github.com/AppImage/AppImageKit/releases
Another project that automatically? packages AppImage versions:
https://github.com/dpaulat/supercell-wx/releases
If the Floorp devs make a Windows portable package (floorp that can run from a single folder without installing) I will package it up in a PortableApps format for demonstration as well.
