Overview

Hubstore is built to allow end-users to easily download, install, and use applications published with the help of Pyrustic.

Hubstore itself is built with the Pyrustic framework and is available on PyPI.

As a developer, you simply need to publish a new release of your application with Pyrustic to make it compatible with Hubstore.

An application is compatible with Hubstore:

• if it is available as a zip asset in Github Release;
• unpacking the zip asset should output a folder named as the Github repository;
• a main.py module should be present in the root of the project (inside the folder named as the Github repository).

This is a beta version of Hubstore, so it's recommended to be a curious hacker and play with a demo project.

As an end-user, you just need to know the repository name and owner to download an app via Hubstore: {owner}/{repo}. You can also simply paste the url of the project repository.

Lot of new features will come !

I will make a new repository to keep track of compatible apps. If you like this project and want to make your app available via Hubstore, poke me !

He owned a cup which served also as a bowl for food but threw it away when he saw a boy drinking water from his hands and realized one did not even need a cup to sustain oneself.
