Preware 2

Preware 2 is the LuneOS on-device homebrew installer.

The webos-ports feed is enabled by default, and other feeds can be enabled or added by selecting Manage Feeds from the app menu. Downloaded packages can be installed by selection Install Package from the app menu.

Building/Installation

At present, this only runs under LuneOS (no mocking is set up to develop in the browser).

To rebuild and install on a LuneOS device attached via USB, run this command in the app directory: ./build-and-deploy.sh Then, in Chrome, surf to localhost:1122 to debug.

To-do [out of date]

First step is to convert needed stuff from preware/app/model to enyo. The status is as follows:

Working:

  • prefs cookie should be working (tested in browser)
  • basic IPKGService communictation (version, device id, tested on TouchPad)

Implemented (but untested):

  • more complex IPKGService communication
  • deviceProfile.js
  • feeds.js
  • palmProfile.js
  • help.js

only Partly-Implemented:

  • db8storage (used for just type)
  • packageModel.js (renamed from package.js)
  • filePicker.js (does some Mojo stuff to display stuff.. need to replace that)

not implemented at all:

  • packages.js
  • resourceHandler.js
  • stayAwake.js

UI TO-DOs

  • if a Repeater has no items, display a message in the blank space
