ImHex/dist/AppImage

Building an AppImage

There are two ways of building an AppImage for ImHex, using the provided tools here.

If you want to create an AppImage and do not have a build to work from already, you can use docker to build ImHex and package an AppImage.

Alternatively you can create an AppImage using an existing build.

Using docker

First run build.sh to create a docker image. Then run extract.sh to get the AppImage out. This needs to be in two steps, as a docker build cannot copy files out. Nor can docker build use volume mounts.

The environment variable TAG can be set to build for a specific git tag. Without the master branch is build.

Using an existing build

Run package.sh with the build dir as an argument. E.g.:

./package.sh ../../build
