movonw/onivim2-builder repository overview

⁠OniVim2 builder image

Builder for Onivim2⁠ app on Ubuntu 20.04 system.

⁠OniVim2 development support

I am releasing this image to let you try out and maybe hack on Onivim2 to support its development. Yet please consider supporting the project financially: you can support the project on Patreon or buy a License here⁠. This is a complex project and needs a lot of work!

⁠Builder image

This is a docker image which builds Onivim:

• It runs and compiles against Ubunbu 20.04 - the resulting App can be protable to other distributions, provided the libraries have similar versions.
• You will need to have at least 17 GB of free space to build (sic!)
• Prepare a directory where build user will have it's home

To build Onivim2 using image I have built:

docker run -it --rm --name onivimbuilder -v $BUILD_DIRECTORY:/home/oni --env TAG=master movonw/onivim2-builder  

To build the image yourself from this repository:

docker build -t onivim2-builder .  

A succesful build ends with:

Marking the AppImage as executable...
Embedding MD5 digest
Success

Please consider ....

After the build hopefully succeeds you will find AppImage in $BUILD_DIRECTORY/oni2/_release/Onivim2-x86_64.AppImage. Just chmod +x and run this file.

If nothing happens (the app does not start), you can debug it by running:

Onivim2-x86_64.AppImage --appimage-mount

it will mount the app image and display a path under /tmp/.mount_oniXXXXXXX -> go to this directory, open usr/bin and try to run Oni2_editor -f, you can also run ldd Oni2_editor to see if there are missing dependencies (look for "not found" in the output).

⁠Installing in system

To install,

• move the Onivim appimage file to /usr/local/bin/Oni2. Also, to get it to show up in app menu and see the beautiful icon:
• put Onivim2.desktop⁠ in /usr/share/applications
• put Onivim2.png⁠ in /usr/share/icons

Hope this works for you!
