flatpak Developer Alexander Larsson alexl@redhat.com flatpak build-bundle 1 flatpak-build-bundle Create a single-file bundle from a local repository flatpak build-bundle OPTION LOCATION FILENAME NAME BRANCH Creates a single-file named FILENAME for the application (or runtime) named NAME in the repository at LOCATION. If a BRANCH is specified, this branch of the application is used. The collection ID set on the repository at LOCATION (if set) will be used for the bundle. Unless --oci is used, the format of the bundle file is that of an ostree static delta (against an empty base) with some flatpak specific metadata for the application icons and appdata. The following options are understood: -h --help Show help options and exit. --runtime Export a runtime instead of an application. --arch=ARCH The arch to create a bundle for. See flatpak --supported-arches for architectures supported by the host. --repo-url=URL The URL for the repository from which the application can be updated. Installing the bundle will automatically configure a remote for this URL. --runtime-repo=URL The URL for a .flatpakrepo file that contains the information about the repository that supplies the runtimes required by the app. --gpg-keys=FILE Add the GPG key from FILE (use - for stdin). --gpg-homedir=PATH GPG Homedir to use when looking for keyrings. --from-commit=COMMIT The OSTree commit to create a delta bundle from. --oci Export to an OCI image instead of a Flatpak bundle. --oci-layer-compress=gzip|zstd Choose how to compress the layers in OCI images. gzip (the default) is universally supported, but zstd compresses faster and results in smaller images. As of 2023, zstd support is present in most major registries. -v --verbose Print debug information during command processing. --ostree-verbose Print OSTree debug information during command processing. $ flatpak build-bundle /var/lib/flatpak/repo gnome-calculator.flatpak org.gnome.Calculator stable $ flatpak build-bundle ~/.local/share/flatpak/repo gnome-calculator.flatpak org.gnome.Calculator stable ostree1, flatpak1, flatpak-build-init1, flatpak-build1, flatpak-build-finish1, flatpak-build-import-bundle1, flatpak-build-update-repo1
