MozApp - Wine & Application Package Manager
MozApp is a unified Python CLI and Textual TUI package manager built on top of CheapWine and Maestro-Plus. It provides non-interactive and interactive workflows for downloading, mounting, and installing Windows applications, VST plugins, ISO images, and package archives inside a managed Wine prefix environment. Made with Gemini ! 🚀
🌟 Key Features
- 🍷 CheapWine & Maestro-Plus Integration: Built-in environment isolation under
~/.mozapp/cheapwinewith direct command passthrough (run,wine,winetricks,env,tui,chocolatey,export, etc.). - 🛡️ Guarded Initialisation (
mozapp init): Fetches and executes the maestro-plus setup script in-place inside~/.mozapp/cheapwine. Command execution is guarded until initialization completes successfully, with automated cleanup on failure or--forcereset. - 📀 Automated ISO Mounting & Silent Installation (
install_local_ni_iso):- Mounts ISO files via
udisksctlwith-o unhide. - Links to
~/.mozapp/iso_mount_point. - Detects top-level
.exeinstallers and executes silent setup (/s SILENT=TRUE) via CheapWine.
- Mounts ISO files via
- ⚡ Google Drive Virus Warning Bypass: Automatically detects Google Drive "file is too large to scan" HTML warning pages, extracts session tokens (
confirm=t,uuid), and streams the true binary payload. - 🔗 Workspace Prefix Mounting: Automatically mounts
cheapwine/.cheapwinetoworkspace/.cheapwineduring package installations. - 📦 Batch Repository & Direct CLI Installation:
mozapp install_package <repo_name>/mozapp install_iso <repo_name>installs all items in a repository.- Omission of arguments opens the interactive Textual TUI with default table keyboard focus.
- 🖥️ Interactive Textual TUI: Live filtering, markdown details, progress bars, and keyboard shortcuts (
Enter,b,q).
📁 Directory Structure (~/.mozapp)
All MozApp data and prefixes are isolated in ~/.mozapp:
| Path | Description |
|---|---|
~/.mozapp/config.json |
Central configuration containing repository sources & sentinel state |
~/.mozapp/cheapwine/ |
Wine prefix directory & cheapwine binary execution context |
~/.mozapp/workspace/ |
Package archive extraction & build workspace |
~/.mozapp/isos/ |
Downloaded ISO image storage |
~/.mozapp/iso_mount_point/ |
Active ISO mountpoint target |
🚀 Quick Start & Installation
Installation
Install MozApp in editable mode:
uv pip install -e .
Initialisation
Before running any application management commands, initialize the CheapWine prefix context:
mozapp init
To force re-initialization and clear the existing cheapwine directory, run mozapp init --force.
📖 Command Reference
🎛️ Interactive TUI
# Open TUI for package repositories
mozapp install_package
# Open TUI for ISO repositories
mozapp install_iso
📦 Non-Interactive Package & ISO Installation

💿 Local ISO Mounting & Silent Installation
# Unmount existing ISO, mount local file via udisksctl (-o unhide), and run silent installer
mozapp install_local_ni_iso /path/to/installer.iso
🍷 CheapWine & Registered Application Forwarding
MozApp forwards Wine commands directly to cheapwine with WINEPREFIX=~/.mozapp/cheapwine:
# Run a registered application or arbitrary Windows executable
mozapp run "Native Access"
mozapp run ./installer.exe
# List registered Wine applications
mozapp list_apps
# Run wine / winetricks inside local prefix
mozapp wine cfg
mozapp winetricks corefonts
🛠️ Repository Configuration Management
# List configured repositories or remote repo items
mozapp list
mozapp list package "Official Packages"
mozapp list iso "Google Drive ISO Repo"
# Add a package or ISO repository
mozapp add_repo package "Custom Repos" "https://example.com/packages.json"
mozapp add_repo iso "Custom ISOs" "https://example.com/isos.json"
# Remove a repository
mozapp remove_repo package "Custom Repos"
