A collection of flatpak manifest for building Microsoft Windows applications with Wine via flatpak.
Remember run all flatpak commands as a user, root and sudo are not needed.
First you need to build and install the winepak Sdk & Platform. You can do so at winepak/winepak-sdk-images.
Some applications use the stable branch of winepak (which uses stable wine) while others use the staging branch of winepak (which uses wine-staging). Build the branches you'll need.
Now with the runtime installed we can build an application with wine. Flatpak will default the build to the systems arch, x86_64 = 64bit and i386 = 32bit. You can specify the arch by passing --arch=ARCH, remove this flag if you don't need it.
To build an application like tld.domain.Application we have two build options.
The repo version exports the build to a repo, in this case winepak. You then need to install the application via the local repo.
flatpak-builder --arch=ARCH --force-clean --repo=winepak builds tld.domain.Application/tld.domain.Application.yml
Now to install simple run the application. Remember if you don't build the application with a GPG key then you will be forced to install the application with --user.
flatpak install winepak tld.domain.Application
The direct method allows you to install a build directly from source without the need of a repo, this is done by running:
flatpak-builder --user --arch=ARCH --force-clean --install builds tld.domain.Application/tld.domain.Application.yml
As easy as:
flatpak run tld.domain.Application
