Two new options for developers and beta testers
Added two new options that allow you to use the "dev" branch with all new features (for beta testers and brave hearts)
To enable this, run
am --devmode-enable
or
appman --devmode-enable
Downloading of modules will be performed from the enabled branch. "main" is the default, while "dev" will be used if enabled with the"--devmode-enable" option.
To disable this, run
am --devmode-disable
or
appman --devmode-disable
Other changes
- Solved a bug in "
--launcher" where some launchers were not shown due to a missing "Name=" entry; - Started code refactoring by @zen0bit (first module updated, launcher.am);
- Added a function that helps people with a non ordinary Linux distro and package manager to install the "jq" dependence from the upstream
if the presence of an ordinary package manager is detected (apt, dnf, pacman, emerge...), you will simply be asked to install it from there.
From this release, each special operation will have a dedicated branch and major updates will be extensively tested by the AM team for at least a week, in the "dev" branch. If you want to join the development and report bugs and various improvements in the code of future versions, simply enable the "dev" branch and report any problems to us.
