Zip file instead of deb for linux release?

Open ItsZariep opened this issue 7 months ago • 1 comments

Nothing wrong with the .deb file, but not every distribution supports it. I'm using a system without dpkg, so I have to extract the contents of the .deb and move the files manually. The .zip also doesn't require root access.

The structure of the zip file will be:

.
└── media-playlist-source
    ├── bin
    │   └── 64bit
    │       └── media-playlist-source.so
    └── locale
        └── data
            └── en-US.ini

The zip file will be extracted to ~/.config/obs-studio/plugins. (iirc, it's different for Flatpak, but no idea)

As with most obs plugins, I only base it from https://github.com/obsproject/obs-plugintemplate which provides the automatically built releases. I unfortunately do not test obs on linux or mac yet. Could you please raise that issue to the https://github.com/obsproject/obs-plugintemplate ? I do not have any knowledge on usage of obs plugins on linux to be able to talk to them about it
