Snap Packaging
|
|
--------------
|
|
|
|
This directory contains the config required to generate a snap package
|
|
of lz4. Snaps are universal Linux packages that allow you to easily
|
|
build your application from any source and ship it to any Linux
|
|
distribution by publishing it to https://snapcraft.io/. A key attribute
|
|
of a snap package is that it is (ideally) confined such that it
|
|
executes within a controlled environment with all its dependencies
|
|
bundled with it and does not share dependencies with of from any other
|
|
package on the system (with a couple of minor exceptions).
|
|
|
|
The basic anatomy and workflow is:
|
|
|
|
* ensure snap.snapcraft.yaml is up-to-date e.g. with version info
|
|
|
|
* build the snap by installing the snapcraft package and running it
|
|
|
|
* push snap/* changes to the repo (excluding any crud generated by a build of course)
|
|
|
|
* register yourself as owner of lz4 name in snapstore
|
|
|
|
* publish new snap to the snap store
|
|
|
|
* install snap by doing 'snap install lz4' on any Linux distro
|
|
|
|
* all installed copies of lz4 will be automatically updated to your new version
|
|
