AppImage Package

Local Testing

Run Docker container:

docker run -it --rm -v $(pwd):/src --entrypoint /bin/bash ubuntu:jammy

Install appimage-builder and appimagetool dependencies:

apt-get update -q -y

Install appimagetool, it has to be extracted because FUSE doesn't work in containers without extra fiddling.

curl -sLO https://github.com/AppImage/AppImageKit/releases/download/continuous/appimagetool-x86_64.AppImage
chmod +x appimagetool-x86_64.AppImage
