# How To Use
|
|
flatpak for tickr rss feed reader, a gtk2 application written in c.
|
|
|
|
As far as this experimental packaging
|
|
attempt goes, it can open links in a web browser by calling `xdg-open`, so presumably some kind
|
|
of desktop environment is required, but seems to have all the dependancies it needs from the
|
|
flathub gnome platform runtime.
|

|
|
|
|
## build tickr flatpak into local repo directory
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
flatpak-builder --repo=/home/$USER/repo --force-clean /home/$USER/tickr com.tickr.Tickr.json
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## add local repo directory as a repo
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
flatpak --user remote-add --no-gpg-verify local-repo repo
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## install tickr flatpak from the local repo
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
flatpak --user install local-repo com.tickr.Tickr
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
If you need to change the repository settings, those will be in
|
|
`~/.local/share/flatpak/repo/config`
|
|
|
|
## issues
|
|
|
|
* no ssl/tls encrypted rss feeds, http only
|
|
* shortcuts don't work unless you enable window decoration, but that gives your tickr a big ugly window decoration
