GNOME Goal: flatpak build manifests

Guidelines

Ship flatpak build manifests in git for our applications.

A module is affected by this goal if there is a flatpak manifest for it in the gnome-apps-nightly git repository.

Copy the manifest from there to the the module (at the toplevel, or in a subdirectory) and add it to git. Remove manifest in gnome-apps-nightly and edit the appname.app file in gnome-apps-nightly to contain a GITURL= line. You may also need to add a GITBRANCH= line if building from a branch other than master. If the json file is in a subdirectory, then you also need to change the JSON= line to contain the relative path of the file in the repo.

An example of how this looks the gnome-calendar app.

The master branch of gnome-apps-nightly is used for git-master builds, and the gnome-3-22 branch for the current stable applications. Please update both.

Status of this goal

Tip: If you choose to work on a module, create the bug report on the GNOME bugzilla for the relevant module, and make it block bug <<insert here a link to the tracker bug>>. This way people will know someone already works on it, and won't duplicate the work you're doing.
