Ubuntu Support

[jravetch]

Would be great to have a deb package for Ubuntu

[a-musing-moose]

👍 I know Atom works on Linux now so even build instructions would be great

[kaihendry]

On Archlinux over here ... 😸

[deepak1556]

Actually the script in build\mac will work for any unix system just change a few file and directory names ;) deepak1556@16a0eed . Also atom has mkdeb and mkrpm grunt tasks which can be pulled in here for building packages..

[endorama]

@deepak1556 I've tried pulling your branch and building from it, but is not working. Here is the log, if you can provide some help :)

[deepak1556]

@endorama my bad for leaving out incorrect filenames around, fixed it here but it looks like all your atom package dependencies werent downloaded, seems to have failed at obtaining language-coffee-script , maybe some network error. Can you try rebuilding it.

[endorama]

Yeah! :) Build was successful!

Thanks for your support,
cheers

@deepak1556 wow man, it's great you're working on Linux build script! Could you wait with it though? We're in the middle of replacing Bash/cmd scripts with one, multiplatform Gruntfile. It should be ready any day.

[deepak1556]

yup sure 👍 i was just getting it along as i wanted to try spark-dev on my system ;) . Have also a dockerfile ready.

[Ciemaar]

Are you going to post that dockerfile anywhere?

[suda]

@Ciemaar it's right here: Dockerfile. We'll merge it when Linux support will be on its way.

[Ciemaar]

There may be a better way, but I got this to run with:

docker build linux
docker run --rm -e DISPLAY=$DISPLAY -v /tmp/.X11-unix:/tmp/.X11-unix -ti
c7367beb6ff2 /bin/bash
cd ../../dist/linux/Spark\ Dev/
./atom

not sure why I needed bash in the container, but it works.

@suda Any update on native Ubuntu pkg?

[adomenech73]

Interested on that too ,or in a way to compile it on Linux

[lightx]

would be great

[suda]

There is no Linux support yet but seeing the interest, I could try to tackle it after upgrading Dev to Atom 1.0 API.

[aceperry]

Cool, been waiting patiently. Just wanted to let you know that there is still interest out there for deb/linux version.

[zsup]

@aceperry sorry for the delay, upgrading to Atom 1.0 had some unexpected roadblocks, and @suda's on vacation now; we'll get back to this in a couple of weeks, hopefully

[adomenech73]

Any advance on this??
I tried to compile, even on the Dockerized environment, but the mac script gives me some:
hdiutil: command not found &
ditto: command not found
that don't seem trivial to bypass

Can anyone upgrade the workaround to compile it on linux? this would be a great feature in future releases, I would like to use it in my favorite SO. Thank's for anyone efforts!!

[suda]

@adomenech73 commands you mentioned are used by the package-app task. You can try commenting it out in Gruntfile.coffee.

[adomenech73]

Thank's @suda
finally I could compile perfectly, cloning git repository as it is and moving to v0.0.23 to avoid a "generate-module-cache" task error. So I did

git fetch
git checkout v0.0.23
script/build

and everything finished with a
Running "install" task
Done, without errors.

[adomenech73]

Actually I'm watching messages like:

[12087:0726/123401:INFO:CONSOLE(114)] "Fetching local packages failed.", source: /home/albert/Projects/Electronics/Spark/spark-dev/dist/linux/Particle Dev/resources/app/node_modules/settings-view/lib/main.js (114)
[12087:0726/124249:INFO:CONSOLE(285)] "Fetching local packages failed.", source: /home/albert/Projects/Electronics/Spark/spark-dev/dist/linux/Particle Dev/resources/app/node_modules/settings-view/lib/installed-packages-panel.js (285)

On the startup and packages view. Also updates functionality seems to freeze
Is there any post-install task, that I need to do?

[suda]

@adomenech73 master was in a non build-able state. I've just fixed it with d6d344b
Can you try it now?

[adomenech73]

@suda Now it's just perfect!!
I was wondering why there was not possible to access to the device functions from the ide
I solved package manager thing making a copy of apm on node_modules but the ide was not complete at all.

Thank's, really appreciated!

Instructions for using Particle Dev packages on Linux have been added to readme: https://github.com/spark/spark-dev#linux

[suda]

Particle Dev package does not work on Linux. Only thing needed now would be packaging thus I'm closing this one in favor of Build Linux packages #14
