NAME

       flatpak-build-bundle - Create a single-file bundle from a local repository

SYNOPSIS

       flatpak build-bundle [OPTION...] LOCATION FILENAME NAME [BRANCH]

DESCRIPTION

       Creates a single-file named FILENAME for the application (or runtime) named NAME in the
       repository at LOCATION. If a BRANCH is specified, this branch of the application is used.

       The collection ID set on the repository at LOCATION (if set) will be used for the bundle.

       Unless --oci is used, the format of the bundle file is that of an ostree static delta
       (against an empty base) with some flatpak specific metadata for the application icons and
       appdata.

OPTIONS

       The following options are understood:

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

       --runtime
           Export a runtime instead of an application.

       --arch=ARCH
           The arch to create a bundle for. See flatpak --supported-arches for architectures
           supported by the host.

       --repo-url=URL
           The URL for the repository from which the application can be updated. Installing the
           bundle will automatically configure a remote for this URL.

       --runtime-repo=URL
           The URL for a .flatpakrepo file that contains the information about the repository
           that supplies the runtimes required by the app.

       --gpg-keys=FILE
           Add the GPG key from FILE (use - for stdin).

       --gpg-homedir=PATH
           GPG Homedir to use when looking for keyrings.

       --from-commit=COMMIT
           The OSTree commit to create a delta bundle from.

       --oci
           Export to an OCI image instead of a Flatpak bundle.

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

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