Interest in AppImage Builds?

[mastercactapus]

I've had an automated build that creates an AppImage (portable binary that "just works" on Linux) out of each release since version 1.10.9, and I'm wondering if:

1. Is it acceptable/possible for me to share those binaries here? (or some S3 bucket, something like that)
2. If so, would there be interest in that?

If sharing the AppImage itself is a no-go, I can share the script/process of building it for anyone interested too.

Thanks!

It's entirely up to the author, and hopefully he'll see your message. However, I'd suggest sending an email to support@makemkv.com if you want to find out sooner.

There is already someone offering a flatpak build, independent of Mike.

could you sent me the script via pm.

I can share the script/process of building it for anyone interested too.

Post the script here in a code box. If it helps, I was using the below as part of an update script:

Code: Select all

#!/bin/bash
# Download latest makemkv for Linux
MAKEMKV_URL="https://forum.makemkv.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=224"

get_makemkv() {
  local _dir="$*"
  [ "" == "$_dir" ] && _dir='.'
  local _PAGE=$(timeout -k 0 30 wget -qO - "$MAKEMKV_URL")
  local _BIN=$(printf "%s" "$_PAGE" | grep -io 'https://www.makemkv.com/download/makemkv-bin-[^"]*' | head -n 1)
  local _OSS=$(printf "%s" "$_PAGE" | grep -io 'https://www.makemkv.com/download/makemkv-oss-[^"]*' | head -n 1)
  if [ "" != "$_BIN" ] && [ "" != "$_OSS" ]; then
    wget -O "$_dir/$(basename "$_BIN")" "$_BIN" || return 1
    wget -O "$_dir/$(basename "$_OSS")" "$_OSS" || return 1
    return 0
  fi
  return 1
}

get_makemkv "$PWD"
