Building

Prerequisites

Before building, you should have:

  1. Flutter SDK installed
  2. matrix-dart-sdk in the same directory as Extera

Setup

The matrix dependency can be configured in two ways:

Way 1: Directory-based (recommended when developing both app & sdk) Make sure that you have matrix-dart-sdk cloned in the same parent directory.

$ ls
Extera    matrix-dart-sdk

Option 2: Git reference Make sure that pubspec.yaml has a Git reference like this:

matrix:
  git:
    url: https://github.com/ExteraApp/matrix-dart-sdk.git
    ref: main

Build Commands

Platform-specific build scripts are available in the scripts/ directory:

  • ./scripts/build-appimage.sh - AppImage (Linux)
  • ./scripts/build-linux.sh - Linux (Run only after build-appimage.sh)
