NAME
flatpak-flatpakref - Reference to a remote for an application or
runtime
DESCRIPTION
Flatpak uses flatpakref files to share information about a remote for a
single application. The flatpakref file contains enough information to
add the remote and install the application. Use the flatpak install
--from command to do so.
flatpakref files may also contain additional information that is useful
when displaying the application to the user, e.g. in an app store.
The filename extension commonly used for flatpakref files is
.flatpakref.
A flatpakref file can also refer to a remote for a runtime.
FILE FORMAT
The flatpakref file is using the same .ini file format that is used for
systemd unit files or application .desktop files.
[Flatpak Ref]
All the information is contained in the [Flatpak Ref] group.
The following keys can be present in this group:
Version (uint64)
The version of the file format, must be 1 if present.
Name (string)
The fully qualified name of the runtime or application. This key is
mandatory.
Url (string)
The url for the remote. This key is mandatory.
Branch (string)
The name of the branch from which to install the application or
runtime. If this key is not specified, the "master" branch is used.
Title (string)
The title of the application or runtime. This should be a
user-friendly name that can be displayed e.g. in an app store.
Comment (string)
A short summary of the application or runtime, for display e.g. in
an app store.
Description (string)
A longer description of the application or runtime, for display
e.g. in an app store.
Icon (string)
The url for an icon that can be used to represent the application
or runtime.
Homepage (string)
The url of a webpage describing the application or runtime.
DeploySideloadCollectionID (string)
The collection ID of the remote, if it has one. This uniquely
identifies the collection of apps in the remote, to allow peer to
peer redistribution (see flatpak(1)). It is recommended to use this
key over DeployCollectionID or CollectionID because only newer
clients (Flatpak 1.12.8 or later) pay attention to it (and older
clients don't handle collection IDs properly).
DeployCollectionID (string)
This is deprecated but still supported for backwards compatibility.
Use DeploySideloadCollectionID instead.
CollectionID (string)
This is deprecated but still supported for backwards compatibility.
Use DeploySideloadCollectionID instead.
IsRuntime (boolean)
Whether this file refers to a runtime. If this key is not
specified, the file is assumed to refer to an application.
GPGKey (string)
The base64-encoded gpg key for the remote.
RuntimeRepo (string)
The url for a .flatpakrepo file for the remote where the runtime
can be found. Note that if the runtime is available in the remote
providing the app, that remote may be used instead but the one
specified by this option will still be added.
SuggestRemoteName (string)
A suggested name for the remote.
