NAME

       flatpak-build-finish - Finalize a build directory

SYNOPSIS

       flatpak build-finish [OPTION...] DIRECTORY

DESCRIPTION

       Finalizes a build directory, to prepare it for exporting.  DIRECTORY is the name of the
       directory.

       The result of this command is that desktop files, icons and D-Bus service files from the
       files subdirectory are copied to a new export subdirectory. In the metadata file, the
       command key is set in the [Application] group, and the supported keys in the [Environment]
       group are set according to the options.

       As part of finalization you can also specify permissions that the app needs, using the
       various options specified below. Additionally during finalization the permissions from the
       runtime are inherited into the app unless you specify --no-inherit-permissions

       You should review the exported files and the application metadata before creating and
       distributing an application bundle.

       It is an error to run build-finish on a directory that has not been initialized as a build
       directory, or has already been finalized.

OPTIONS

       The following options are understood:

       -h, --help
           Show help options and exit.

       --command=COMMAND
           The command to use. If this option is not specified, the first executable found in
           files/bin is used.

           Note that the command is used when the application is run via flatpak run, and does
           not affect what gets executed when the application is run in other ways, e.g. via the
           desktop file or D-Bus activation.

       --require-version=MAJOR.MINOR.MICRO
           Require this version or later of flatpak to install/update to this build.

       --share=SUBSYSTEM
           Share a subsystem with the host session. This updates the [Context] group in the
           metadata. SUBSYSTEM must be one of: network, ipc. This option can be used multiple
           times.

       --unshare=SUBSYSTEM
           Don't share a subsystem with the host session. This updates the [Context] group in the
           metadata. SUBSYSTEM must be one of: network, ipc. This option can be used multiple
           times.

       --socket=SOCKET
           Expose a well-known socket to the application. This updates the [Context] group in the
           metadata. SOCKET must be one of: x11, wayland, fallback-x11, pulseaudio, system-bus,
           session-bus, ssh-auth, pcsc, cups. This option can be used multiple times.

           The fallback-x11 option makes the X11 socket available only if there is no Wayland
           socket. This option was introduced in 0.11.3. To support older Flatpak releases,
           specify both x11 and fallback-x11. The fallback-x11 option takes precedence when both
           are supported.

       --nosocket=SOCKET
           Don't expose a well known socket to the application. This updates the [Context] group
           in the metadata. SOCKET must be one of: x11, wayland, fallback-x11, pulseaudio,
           system-bus, session-bus, ssh-auth, pcsc, cups. This option can be used multiple times.

       --device=DEVICE
           Expose a device to the application. This updates the [Context] group in the metadata.
           DEVICE must be one of: dri, kvm, shm, all. This option can be used multiple times.

       --nodevice=DEVICE
           Don't expose a device to the application. This updates the [Context] group in the
           metadata. DEVICE must be one of: dri, kvm, shm, all. This option can be used multiple
           times.

       --allow=FEATURE
           Allow access to a specific feature. This updates the [Context] group in the metadata.
           FEATURE must be one of: devel, multiarch, bluetooth, canbus. This option can be used
           multiple times.

           The devel feature allows the application to access certain syscalls such as ptrace(),
           and perf_event_open().

           The multiarch feature allows the application to execute programs compiled for an ABI
           other than the one supported natively by the system. For example, for the x86_64
           architecture, 32-bit x86 binaries will be allowed as well.

           The bluetooth feature allows the application to use bluetooth (AF_BLUETOOTH) sockets.
           Note, for bluetooth to fully work you must also have network access.

           The canbus feature allows the application to use canbus (AF_CAN) sockets. Note, for
           this work you must also have network access.

       --disallow=FEATURE
           Disallow access to a specific feature. This updates the [Context] group in the
           metadata. FEATURE must be one of: devel, multiarch, bluetooth, canbus. This option can
           be used multiple times.

       --filesystem=FS
           Allow the application access to a subset of the filesystem. This updates the [Context]
           group in the metadata. FS can be one of: home, host, xdg-desktop, xdg-documents,
           xdg-download, xdg-music, xdg-pictures, xdg-public-share, xdg-templates, xdg-videos,
           xdg-run, xdg-config, xdg-cache, xdg-data, an absolute path, or a homedir-relative path
           like ~/dir or paths relative to the xdg dirs, like xdg-download/subdir. The optional
           :ro suffix indicates that the location will be read-only. The optional :create suffix
           indicates that the location will be read-write and created if it doesn't exist. This
           option can be used multiple times. See the "[Context] filesystems" list in flatpak-
           metadata(5) for details of the meanings of these filesystems.

       --nofilesystem=FILESYSTEM
           Remove access to the specified subset of the filesystem from the application. This
           overrides to the Context section from the application metadata. FILESYSTEM can be one
           of: home, host, xdg-desktop, xdg-documents, xdg-download, xdg-music, xdg-pictures,
           xdg-public-share, xdg-templates, xdg-videos, an absolute path, or a homedir-relative
           path like ~/dir. This option can be used multiple times.

       --add-policy=SUBSYSTEM.KEY=VALUE
           Add generic policy option. For example, "--add-policy=subsystem.key=v1
           --add-policy=subsystem.key=v2" would map to this metadata:

               [Policy subsystem]
               key=v1;v2;

           This option can be used multiple times.

       --remove-policy=SUBSYSTEM.KEY=VALUE
           Remove generic policy option. This option can be used multiple times.

       --env=VAR=VALUE
           Set an environment variable in the application. This updates the [Environment] group
           in the metadata. This overrides to the Context section from the application metadata.
           This option can be used multiple times.

       --env-fd=FD
           Read environment variables from the file descriptor FD, and set them as if via --env.
           This can be used to avoid environment variables and their values becoming visible to
           other users.

           Each environment variable is in the form VAR=VALUE followed by a zero byte. This is
           the same format used by env -0 and /proc/*/environ.

       --own-name=NAME
           Allow the application to own the well known name NAME on the session bus. If NAME ends
           with .*, it allows the application to own all matching names. This updates the
           [Session Bus Policy] group in the metadata. This option can be used multiple times.

       --talk-name=NAME
           Allow the application to talk to the well known name NAME on the session bus. If NAME
           ends with .*, it allows the application to talk to all matching names. This updates
           the [Session Bus Policy] group in the metadata. This option can be used multiple
           times.

       --system-own-name=NAME
           Allow the application to own the well known name NAME on the system bus. If NAME ends
           with .*, it allows the application to own all matching names. This updates the [System
           Bus Policy] group in the metadata. This option can be used multiple times.

       --system-talk-name=NAME
           Allow the application to talk to the well known name NAME on the system bus. If NAME
           ends with .*, it allows the application to talk to all matching names. This updates
           the [System Bus Policy] group in the metadata. This option can be used multiple times.

       --persist=FILENAME
           If the application doesn't have access to the real homedir, make the
           (homedir-relative) path FILENAME a bind mount to the corresponding path in the
           per-application directory, allowing that location to be used for persistent data. This
           updates the [Context] group in the metadata. This option can be used multiple times.

       --runtime=RUNTIME, --sdk=SDK
           Change the runtime or sdk used by the app to the specified partial ref. Unspecified
           parts of the ref are taken from the old values or defaults.

       --metadata=GROUP=KEY[=VALUE]
           Set a generic key in the metadata file. If value is left out it will be set to "true".

       --extension=NAME=VARIABLE[=VALUE]
           Add extension point info. See the documentation for flatpak-metadata(5) for the
           possible values of VARIABLE and VALUE.

       --remove-extension=NAME
           Remove extension point info.

       --extension-priority=VALUE
           Set the priority (library override order) of the extension point. Only useful for
           extensions. 0 is the default, and higher value means higher priority.

       --extra-data=NAME:SHA256:DOWNLOAD-SIZE:INSTALL-SIZE:URL
           Adds information about extra data uris to the app. These will be downloaded and
           verified by the client when the app is installed and placed in the /app/extra
           directory. You can also supply an /app/bin/apply_extra script that will be run after
           the files are downloaded.

       --no-exports
           Don't look for exports in the build.

       --no-inherit-permissions
           Don't inherit runtime permissions in the app.

       -v, --verbose
           Print debug information during command processing.

       --ostree-verbose
           Print OSTree debug information during command processing.
