snap package (Page 1 of 3)

Bonsoir Laurent,

I guess that did not work: "The name 'qelectrotech' is reserved."

In general, I would advise to create an official "QElectroTech" account on snapcraft.io if you are interested in owning the snap package as a project.
As an intermediate solution you could also add me as a collaborator. I'd rather avoid publishing a package with a competing name like "qelectrotech-ppd".

I take it you own/owned the name with your personal Ubuntu account?

Cheers

I see. Your snap package is named "qelectrotech-dev" then, not "qelectrotech".

Can you tell me what your registered snap name is by visiting https://dashboard.snapcraft.io/snaps/ ?
Probably both qelectrotech and qelectrotech-dev, I presume?

Max

You should claim the name qelectrotech for the project then.
We can publish trunk to the channel "edge" and releases to "stable".

Here is a great rundown of what's required to publish a snap package under a brand/umbrella/project account:

https://forum.snapcraft.io/t/creating-snap-store-brand-accounts/6271

I can probably use "qelectrotech-devel" in the meantime to get some testing going, but it'd be much preferred to stick to the real name of the project without any suffixes.

Have a great weekend
Max

I get that ;-)

I'm just advising you try registering it. Then the website will complain that it is already registered and ask you for proof that you have the rights to that name.

Naturally, you, as a project member, can provide such proof and thus get the name transferred to yourself.

What I would do, is the following:

1. Register the account "qelectrotech" on snapcraft.io/account

2. Try to register the snap name "qelectrotech" in this account
It will complain as described above and you will submit some proof as they require.

3. Add your own account as a "collaborator" to this "qelectrotech" account. You can add me too, if you trust me enough.

Then we can setup some auto build and publish new builds when trunk changes.

Thanks for your efforts Laurent!

Please use this link for registering: https://dashboard.snapcraft.io/register-snap/
It should display the form as in the attached screenshot.

Marvelous, Laurent.

I will publish a first version into the edge channel and will then look into setting up auto build on updates to trunk.

Do you wish me to continue hosting the snap packaging on my Github account or do you have any official infrastructure on Github? I'll give you repo access nonetheless.

Max

Nice, Max, thanks.

I set the correct licence.
Yes if you can continue hosting the snap packaging on your Github account It would help me, I 'm very busy in this moment.

Cheers,
Laurent

Hi,

strange. Maybe a temporary problem, given that you have a working internet connection.

Can you give me the output of

snap version

Bust most likely it is/was a temporary problem on the store side

Cheers

Hi Laurent,

did you just install snapd? If so, restarting your session should be enough to fix the $PATH issue.

Your $PATH should look something like this:

/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games:/usr/local/games:/snap/bin:/snap/bin:/var/lib/snapd/snap/bin

Looks good then. Does it run?

snap run qelectrotech

If you have a conflicting qelectrotech in your $PATH.
