README
This repository contains a number of commandline utilities for use
inside Flatpak sandboxes. They work by talking to portals.
Currently, there is flatpak-spawn for running commands in sandboxes
as well as `xdg-open` and `xdg-email`, which are compatible with the
well-known scripts of the same name.
Everything else in `xdg-utils` is not provided. That includes
`xdg-settings` and `xdg-mime` as they deal with settings that Flatpaks
do not have access or control to.
See https://flatpak.org/ for more information.
# Installation
This repository uses meson to build. Just do
```
meson [args] build
ninja -Cbuild
ninja -Cbuild install
```
The tools in flatpak-xdg-utils are only useful inside a Flatpak sandbox.
