# F-Droid - Overview
|
|
|
|
- <https://f-droid.org/en/packages/com.b44t.messenger/>
|
|
is the Delta Chat page on F-Droid.org,
|
|
the F-Droid-app will show similar information.
|
|
|
|
- <https://gitlab.com/fdroid/fdroiddata/blob/master/metadata/com.b44t.messenger.yml>
|
|
contains the description and all meta data shown for Delta Chat on F-Droid;
|
|
you can also check if F-Droid recognizes a new version here (they show up at the end)
|
|
|
|
- new versions are recognized by tags in the form `v1.2.3` -
|
|
before adding tags like that, have a look at `docs/release-checklist.md`
|
|
the build and distribution is expected to take
|
|
[up to 5 days](https://gitlab.com/fdroid/wiki/-/wikis/FAQ#how-long-does-it-take-for-my-app-to-show-up-on-website-and-client).
|

# F-Droid Build status
|
|
|
|
- <https://monitor.f-droid.org/builds>
|
|
shows F-Droid's overall build status,
|
|
if Delta Chat shows up at "Need updating" or "Running",
|
|
things are working as expected :)
|
|
|
|
- <https://f-droid.org/repo/com.b44t.messenger_VERSIONCODE.apk>
|
|
(with VERSIONCODE = 537 or so) links to successfully built apk
|
|
even if it is not yet in the index (which may take some more time).
|
|
F-Droid keeps the last 3 successful builds in the main repo,
|
|
while the rest will be moved to the Archive repo:
|
|
<https://f-droid.org/archive/com.b44t.messenger_VERSIONCODE.apk>
|
|
|
|
|
|
# Use F-Droid-tools locally
|
|
|
|
$ git clone https://gitlab.com/fdroid/fdroiddata
|
|
$ git clone https://gitlab.com/fdroid/fdroidserver
|
|
$ cd fdroiddata
|
|
|
|
now, metadata/com.b44t.messenger.txt can be modified.
|
|
for testing, one can change the repo to a branch
|
|
by adding the line `Update Check Mode:RepoManifest/BRANCH` to the file.
|
|
|
|
set some path to ndk etc:
|
|
$ cp ../fdroidserver/examples/config.py . # adapt file as needed
|
|
|
|
checkout repo as f-droid would do:
|
|
$ ../fdroidserver/fdroid checkupdates -v com.b44t.messenger
|
|
(for testing with uncommited changes, add --allow-dirty)
|
|
|
|
build repo as f-droid would do:
|
|
$ ../froidserver/fdroid build -v com.b44t.messenger:<versionCode>
|
|
|
|
(via https://f-droid.org/docs/Installing_the_Server_and_Repo_Tools/
|
|
and https://f-droid.org/docs/Building_Applications/ -
|
|
might require `pip install pyasn1 pyasn1_modules pyaml requests`)
|
|
|
|
|
|
# Changing the Description on F-Droid
|
|
|
|
- the description can be changed via a PR to the file above
|
|
|
|
- make sure there is a "newline" at the end of the description
|
|
(see https://gitlab.com/fdroid/fdroiddata/merge_requests/3580)
|
|
|
|
- reformat the metadata using
|
|
$ ../fdroidserver/fdroid rewritemeta com.b44t.messenger # called from fdroiddata dir
|
|
|
