Arch Linux User Repository

I don't see the harm in renaming it to drawio-www or drawio-web or something similar to avoid the confusion stated in the comments.

I made this mistake of installing this package thinking I would be able to use the draw.io application

On the contrary, one of the core principles of Arch Linux is to remain as close to upstream as possible. This package does exactly that. It's not the package's fault or the packager's fault if a user doesn't understand what they're installing because of a lack of research.

Well, we're part of an ecosystem, so we should follow the rules for AUR naming, not upstream naming (which has no rules). Imagine you installed the python package, intending to run and use python, but just got a bunch of man files, because upstream Python is the name of the language, and the implementation is actually called cpython. So you do a search for packages, but the description of every Python package is the same, so there's no way to distinguish them. You'll eventually look at the package contents and find the right one, it's just kind of annoying and a waste of time. That's just my opinion, but clearly I'm not the only one who feels this way, since someone else already flagged the package. Anyway no use arguing over it, thanks for adding another package to the AUR arsenal.

I've updated the package to the latest release and resolved the packaging issue. My apologies for that.

I've gotta be honest, I really don't understand the confusion around this package. I don't understand this idea that every package must have a file in /usr/bin.

There's a pretty clear separation both upstream and on the AUR between drawio and drawio-desktop. Upstream, drawio is literally just the website content. What's the big deal?

It's meant to store the static files on disk, so that they can be served up by a webserver that you configure.

Your package doesn't currently build. Same problem mentioned by @Torxed and @LinXuan.

==> Starting package()...
rm: cannot remove '/tmp/drawio/pkg/drawio/usr/share/draw.io/draw.war': No such file or directory

Missing version number in .war file. See the patch below.

Also, though, can you explain what this package is for? It doesn't generate any binaries. It looks like maybe you're just using this to open the static .html in a browser? In which case perhaps a better name might be drawio-www, and maybe change the description?

same problem as Torxed have Mentioned. the pkgbuild should be rm "${pkgdir}/usr/share/draw.io/draw-${pkgver}.war"

Or it's because I'm using majaro? If so,sorry to interrupt.

I believe https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git/tree/PKGBUILD?h=drawio#n33 should be

rm "${pkgdir}/usr/share/draw.io/draw-${pkgver}.war"

Build fails otherwise.

checksum verification fails for version 14.8.0
