Switching back to the system electron because of reported issues with the packaged electron. Also, fixed pkgver issue.

Build options by setting environment variables (or editing pkgbuild):

  • _system_electron=false – Use the packaged electron
  • _electron_version=29 – Use a specific system electron version (when default version has problems)
    • Or edit /usr/bin/beeper after install.
  • _install_path=usr/lib – Use a different install path. Default is opt. (Do not include leading / and trailing /beeper.)

This is a self-updating package. It always downloads the latest available AppImage and applies the correct version number.

Please wait until over a month has passed since the last update before requesting version bumps.

It needs to be updated, I'm getting a version error when try to install with makedeb on Debian.

I'm running Beeper on Wayland and need to be able to pass some configuration flags on startup (primarily --ozone-platform=auto). As opposed to having to manually create and maintain a launch script, would it be an idea to generate this on install/update by checking for and using the flags as provided in:

~/.config/beeper-flags.conf ~/.config/electron[version]-flags.conf ~/.config/electron-flags.conf ~/etc/electron-flags.conf

Forgive me for asking. I'm not yet versed in the art of writing AUR packages.

pkgver is broken for the latest beeper.

Getting:

pkgver is not allowed to contain colons, forward slashes, hyphens or whitespace. ==> ERROR: pkgver() generated an invalid version: beeper-3.79.17-build-231004eglj00sp6.AppImage

Agreed. Just submitted a Merge request.

@jshcmpbll As far as I can tell, that is not an official url. I'll use it to add support for building old versions.

Note: Rebuilding old versions may no longer work with 3.79.17 and newer because upstsream changed the filename format.
