Here you will find the repositories and versions of every apps available in YunoHost's default catalog.
It is browsable here: https://yunohost.org/apps
The main file of the catalog is apps.json which contains
references to the corresponding Git repositories for each application, along
with a few metadata about them such as its category or maintenance state. This
file regularly read by list_builder.py
which publish the results on
https://app.yunohost.org/default/.
- You can browse the contributor documentation : https://yunohost.org/contributordoc
- If you are not familiar with Git/GitHub, you can have a look at our homemade guide
- Don't hesitate to reach for help on the dedicated application packaging chatroom ... we can even schedule an audio meeting to help you get started!
N.B.: The YunoHost project will NOT integrate in its catalog applications that are not based on free-software upstreams.
N.B.2: We strongly encourage you to transfer the ownership of your repository to the YunoHost-Apps organization on GitHub, such that the community will help you with keeping your app working and up to date with packaging evolutions.
To add your application to the catalog:
- Fork this repository and edit the apps.json file
- Add your app's ID and git information at the right alphabetical place
- Indicate the app's functioning state:
notworking
,inprogress
, orworking
- Indicate the app category, which you can pick from
categories.yml
- Indicate any anti-feature that your app may be subject to, see
antifeatures.yml
(or remove theantifeatures
key if there's none) - Indicate if your app can be thought of as an alternative to popular proprietary services (or remove the
potential_alternative_to
key if there's none) - Do not add the
level
entry by yourself. Our automatic test suite ("the CI") will handle it. - Create a Pull Request
App example addition:
"your_app": {
"antifeatures": [
"deprecated-software"
],
"potential_alternative_to": [
"YouTube"
],
"category": "pick_the_appropriate_category",
"state": "working",
"url": "https://github.com/YunoHost-Apps/your_app_ynh"
}
N.B: Implicitly, the catalog publishes the HEAD
of branch master
(this can be overwritten by adding keys branch
and revision
).
Therefore, be careful that any commit on the master
branch will automatically be published.
We strongly encourage you to develop in separate branches, and only
merge changes that were carefully tested. Get in touch with the Apps group to
obtain an access to the developer CI where you'll be able to test your app
easily.
App packagers should not manually set their apps' level. The levels of all the apps are automatically updated once per week on Friday, according to the results from the official app CI.
Applications with no recent activity and no active sign from maintainer may be flagged in apps.json
with "maintained": false
to signify that the app is inactive and may slowly become outdated with respect to the upstream, or with respect to good packaging practices. It does not mean that the app is not working anymore.
Feel free to contact the app group if you feel like taking over the maintenance of a currently unmaintained app!
