Re: Snap packages as build dependencies of other snaps
can you do it by remote parts? you can find more info by: $ snapcraft update $ snapcraft search There are a number of existing parts there already. You can publish your own.

Is there any way to choose the arch to build on build.snapcraft.io?
Hi, I just tried to use build.snapcraft.io to build my application. The build was successful. However, the app was meant for amd64. After I chose my repos, it built for armhf and amd64 at the same time. The both versions were published. How can I choose the arch to publish?

Re: Experimental Python interpreter snap
Hi James, Nice. This is a nice example showing how to reduce a python snap package. A few days ago, I also made a small example to make use of the python3 coming with the core at: https://github.com/liu-xiao-guo/httpstat In the above example, I in fact do not package the python. It works.

Re: Package too old for cleanbuild
Will the new release address the issue at https://bugs.launchpad.net/snapcraft/+bug/1662464? Currently, I am using ogra's packageproxy, and it works perfectly. I created a blog at http://blog.csdn.net/ubuntutouch/article/details/54405477 However, nodejs is not a debian package. Instead, it downloads every time after the project is cleaned and rebuilt. This is a really a bad developer experience. Last time, when I had a hackathon event, it was almost impossible for a developer to develop a nodejs at the site since the download took years to get it finished due to the network limitation or other reasons. Even now at home, sometimes it takes quite a while to download the nodejs package. I need to try different combination of VPN. It is really troublesome for me.

Re: ubuntu-app-platform updated to Qt 5.6.2
Hi James, Thanks for your reply. Yeah, it could be reason for it. I used to have a Qt project, and the app was launched by desktop-launch: https://github.com/liu-xiao-guo/rssreader_platform For my case, it is a html5 app. I do not know what is the correct way to launch the app. Do you know what should be set up correctly? I may have my own script to set them up.

Re: ubuntu-app-platform updated to Qt 5.6.2
These days, I tried to make use of ubuntu-app-platform. I have upgraded the snap to the latest version 34 from the edge channel. Still I get an error like: This application failed to start because it could not find or load the Qt platform plugin "xcb" in "". Reinstalling the application may fix this problem.

Re: Where to save stuff (in snap-agnostic way)
Hi Jamie, Thanks for your explanation. You are right. The directory name takes the very first execution of the command. After that, when accessing the /tmp directory, it uses the directory created earlier if it is running from another command. I have updated my example code at https://github.com/liu-xiao-guo/helloworld-fifo When I firstly run "hello.fifo", the directory name takes something "like snap.1000_snap.hello.fifo_5BpMiB". When trying to write to it using "hello.fifo1", the same directory is used. When I firstly run "hello.fifo1", the directory name takes something "snap.1000_snap.hello.fifo1_6MJX5m". When trying to write to it using "hello.fifo", the same directory is used.

Re: Where to save stuff (in snap-agnostic way)
Hi Jamie, For my sample app at https://github.com/liu-xiao-guo/helloworld-fifo, I tried to use the /tmp file to create a file, and finally I get a file on my Desktop like: root@liuxg:/tmp/snap.1000_snap.hello.fifo_TovLTW/tmp# ls anothefile It seems to me that the path is still related to the command name "fifo". Does this conflict with your saying? Currently, my snapd version on 16.04 desktop is: liuxg@liuxg:~$ snap version snap2.22.1 snapd 2.22.1 series 16 ubuntu 16.04 Thanks & best regards, XiaoGuo On Tue, Feb 7, 2017 at 1:21 AM, Jamie Strandboge <ja...@canonical.com> wrote: > On Sun, 2017-02-05 at 08:04 +0800, XiaoGuo Liu wrote: > > Hi Oli, > > > > Does it mean all of the snaps have the same /tmp or each snap has its own > > /tmp?

Re: Snap icon in the Ubuntu Store
Hi Kyle, Thanks for your reply. I cannot remember it exactly whether I set an icon for it or not. But this is definitely a confusing part.

Hi, For the desktop, can each of the app have its own icon? If yes, how can we define the icons for each of them?

Re: Which snap interface allows accessing /dev/rfkill?
I think it would be good to let "snappy-debug" snap output what are the needed plugs. Sometimes, the utility does not give us hints. Is there any way to improve the app?

Re: Snap portability between different boards?
I think it should as long as they both have the same architecture (32bit or 64bit). If the app use any specific hardware, we need to make sure it exists on both platform, for example camera.

Hi, I do not know how many of you have met the issue. When I try to install an app from the store, it comes me an error like: liuxg@ubuntu:~$ sudo snap install tensorflow-demo --devmode --beta error: cannot install "tensorflow-demo": Get https://search.apps.ubuntu.com/api/v1/snaps/details/tensorflow-demo?channel=beta: net/http: request canceled while waiting for connection (Client.Timeout exceeded while awaiting headers) liuxg@ubuntu:~$ sudo snap install tensorflow-demo --devmode --beta error: cannot install "tensorflow-demo": Get https://search.apps.ubuntu.com/api/v1/snaps/details/tensorflow-demo?channel=beta: net/http: request canceled while waiting for connection (Client.Timeout exceeded while awaiting headers) In fact, I have met this this problem a number of times, and sometimes it works fine. Also, my colleague said to me that he gets the same issue sometimes. What is the root cause for this?

Re: Snapping Ubuntu phone app using "ubuntu-app-platform"
Hi all, I just found that there was nothing wrong with my project. After some troubleshooting, I finally found the root cause of the problem. The ubuntu-app-platform is based on Qt 5.6.1 version. However, the Qt version on my desktop is Qt 5.5.1 As suggested by the blog https://developer.ubuntu.com/en/blog/2016/11/16/ snapping-qt-apps/, we need to install the stable-phone-overlay at https://launchpad.net/~ci-train-ppa-service/+archive/ ubuntu/stable-phone-overlay/. We need to do "sudo apt upgrade" and "sudo apt dist-upgrade" to make sure our Qt version is Qt 5.6.1. Then everything will be fine.

Snapping Chrome browser
Hi, After spending some effort, I finally made the Chrome browser snap working though it worked in "devmode". There is a small problem when I am trying to install it not using devmode. You can now install it like: $ sudo snap install --beta --devmoe The source code can be found at: https://github.com/liu-xiao-guo/mychrome I have created a blog at: http://blog.csdn.net/ubuntutouch/article/details/53078713 Currently, it supports Chinese language and also Chinese input method.

How to assign a hardware in my snap application?
Hi, On Series 16, we need to use interface to make the connection between the Ubuntu core and Snap apps in order to make use of the hardware. Previously, on 15.04, I used the following command do get the hardware assignment: (RaspberryPi2)ubuntu@localhost:~$ sudo snappy hw-assign piglow.sideload /dev/i2c-1 'piglow.sideload' is now allowed to access '/dev/i2c-1' Currently, I list all of the interfaces from raspberry pi snappy image, but I do not find any interface which corresponds to my requirement. Do I need to wait for the interface? or I did it wrongly? What should be the right interface to use in my case? ubuntu@localhost:~/apps$ snap interfaces SlotPlug :bluetooth-control - :firewall-control - :fuse-support - :hardware-observe - :home - :kernel-module-control - :locale-control - :log-observe- :mount-observe - :networkpiglow-app,snapweb :network-bind piglow-app,snapweb,webcam-webui :network-control- :network-observe- :opengl - :ppp- :process-control- :snapd-control snapweb :system-observe - :system-trace - :timeserver-control - :timezone-control - :tpm- - webcam-webui:camera Also, I find that the "camera" interface is missing in the current image.

Re: Does anyone know how to build snap for ARM architecture?
Hi Simon, Thanks a lot for your reply. On 15.04, I installed docker, and inside docker, I installed a Ubuntu Server so that I can compile for armhf. A lot of developers may not have the luxury to have two arm devices. I am thinking your second option could be more realistic. I do not have a Ubuntu Core device yet. So, the right command is: $ snap install --devmode --edge classic In this case, it enters to the classic ubuntu mode, rightt? By the way, how to exit the mode? Previously, I saw some instructions like: $ sudo snappy enable-classic $ snappy shell classic $ sudo snappy destroy-classic I think they were for the 15.04 Ubuntu core.

Re: How to resolve same file conflicts from different parts when building a snap project?
Hi Didier, I think it should be the same issue as the one described there. By the way, my snapcraft version is: liuxg@liuxg:~$ snapcraft --version 2.13.1 You can try my example at https://github.com/liu-xiao-guo/rssreader_snap/blob/master/snapcraft.yaml. You just need to take off the following line: stage: - -usr/share/pkgconfig/xkeyboard-config.pc in order to duplicate the issue.
