Add AppImage support #75
Comments
I need this too and was thinking of attempting it. Seems like the other implementations write their formats natively, but AppImage looks a bit more challenging as it's essentially a squashfs/ISO9660 image. Would an implementation that calls out to the official AppImage tool be accepted? I really don't want to implement the spec directly if I don't have to. :) |
Yes, that would be a welcome contribution! It would be great to have support for this. (It's nice to not need to install additional tools to be able to use cargo-bundle, but support for AppImage that requires installing tools is definitely better than no support at all!) |
Cool, I was just pointed to linuxdeploy as a good tool for automatically
creating appimages. I don't know much about the format, but I'll try to
generate packages on my own first, and will then see if there is any
benefit to integrating the process with `cargo bundle`. At least the
appimage tooling is almost entirely self-contained and pretty easy to
install.

AppImage is another useful format besides rpm and deb.
