not possible to install flatpaks by file extension .flatpakref

Open freddii opened this issue 3 years ago • 4 comments

I click on "install" at: https://flathub.org/apps/details/org.gaphor.Gaphor

Then it is downloading the file: https://dl.flathub.org/repo/appstream/org.gaphor.Gaphor.flatpakref

It is not possible to open this file with bauh. At the moment it is not possible for me to install a file from webbrowser (https://flathub.org/apps) with bauh.

Software Environment bauh version: bauh 0.9.9 O.S: Debian testing bullseye Python version:Python 3.9.1rc1 Installation method: pip3

Hi @freddii , thanks for the suggestion. It will be added to the backlog.

Flatpak command can easily handle .flatpakref files and even remote links directly: https://docs.flatpak.org/en/latest/using-flatpak.html#install-applications

While at this, it would be great if Bauh could also manage Flatpak repositories, or at least had a function to add extra ones with an option to make them system or user wide (#147).

Not yet @brccabral I'm currently working on another feature that has been a long time on the backlog
