Function to add more resources in one time

Open ghost opened this issue 4 years ago • 5 comments

When i want to add some new resources to skydroid its possible that i want to add a really long list what i have now. I ask for a feature that makes me able to import a .txt file with a list of resources what makes me able to add a list of 100 resources like org.projectmaxs.module.bluetooth.fdroid-app at the same time

Do you want to share this app list with other users or only use it as a personal "backup"/device-reinstall mechanism?

I would like a Personal backup mechanism

Ok, SkyDroid already has a "Collection" feature which can be used to add a lot of apps at once. A future update will likely contain support for creating your own collections of apps (for example for backup purposes) and importing/exporting them.

Nice. Where dan infound how exactly the collection feature works?

It's explained in the README, currently you have to manually create a YAML file similar to this one:

title: red's collection
description: This collection contains some apps
icon: sia://PAGUwiKmHy_83Att8NssAMj79PF1V8g5x_B2lKyThFhKig

apps:
  - name: org.projectmaxs.module.bluetooth.fdroid-app
  - name: noteless.redsolver
  - name: skydroid.app

Then create a sha256 hash, upload the YAML file to https://siasky.net and update DNS records of a domain name you own.

If you have more questions or want more detailed instructions, I highly recommend joining the SkyDroid Chat: https://matrix.to/#/#skydroid:matrix.org
