AppImages

The AppImage-Manager installs the AppImages specified in the ~/.config/appimages.json file using a systemd user service. The ~/.config/appimages.json file is expected to be in the following format.

{
  "directory": "~/.appimages",
  "appimages": [
    {
      "name": "Bitwarden",
      "source": "bitwarden/clients",
      "pattern": "Desktop"
    }
  ]
}

📝 NOTE
The AppImage-Manager includes quite a bit of AppImage-specific code to ensure desktop entries and icons work properly. This is a section that has some room for improvement. Just note that it may need to be revised for any AppImages that haven't already been used by myself.

Flatpaks

The Flatpak-Manager installs/removes the flatpaks specified in the ~/.config/flatpaks.json file using a systemd user service. The ~/.config/flatpaks.json file is expected to be in the following format.

{
  "include": [
    "org.gimp.GIMP",
    "org.videolan.VLC"
  ],
  "exclude": []
}
