The current link after `curl -L` downloads the HTML page for the file link on GitHub. I've updated the link to correctly download the raw file into the corrent location(~/.local/share/applications).

# Linux Installation Instructions
|
|
|
|
## AppImage
|
|
|
|
Download the AppImage and type the following:
|
|
|
|
1. `chmod +x marktext-%version%-x86_64.AppImage`
|
|
2. `./marktext-%version%-x86_64.AppImage`
|
|
3. Now you can execute Mark Text.
|
|
|
|
### Installation
|
|
|
|
You cannot really install an AppImage. It's a file which can run directly after getting executable permission. To integrate it into desktop environment, you can either create desktop entry manually **or** use [AppImageLauncher](https://github.com/TheAssassin/AppImageLauncher).
|
|
|
|
#### Desktop file creation
|
|
|
|
See [example desktop file](https://github.com/marktext/marktext/blob/develop/resources/linux/marktext.desktop).
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
$ curl -L https://raw.githubusercontent.com/marktext/marktext/develop/resources/linux/marktext.desktop -o $HOME/.local/share/applications/marktext.desktop
|
|
|
|
# Update the Exec in desktop file to your real marktext command. Specify Path if necessary.
|
|
$ vim $HOME/.local/share/applications/marktext.desktop
|
|
|
|
$ update-desktop-database $HOME/.local/share/applications/
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
#### AppImageLauncher integration
|
|
|
|
You can integrate the AppImage into the system via [AppImageLauncher](https://github.com/TheAssassin/AppImageLauncher). It will handle the desktop entry automatically.
|
|
|
|
### Uninstallation
|
|
|
|
1. Delete AppImage file.
|
|
2. Delete your desktop file if exists.
|
|
3. Delete your user settings: `~/.config/marktext`
|
|
|
|
### Custom launch script
|
|
|
|
1. Save AppImage somewhere. Let's say `~/bin/marktext.AppImage`
|
|
2. `chmod +x ~/bin/marktext.AppImage`
|
|
3. Create a launch script:
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
#!/bin/bash
|
|
DESKTOPINTEGRATION=0 ~/bin/marktext.AppImage
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Known issues
|
|
|
|
- Mark Text is always integrated into desktop environment after updating
|
|
|
|
## Binary
|
|
|
|
You can download the latest `marktext-%version%.tar.gz` package from the [release page](https://github.com/marktext/marktext/releases/latest). You may need to install electron dependencies.
|
|
|
|
## Flatpak
|
|
|
|
### Installation
|
|
|
|
**Prerequisites:**
|
|
|
|
You need to install the `flatpak` package for your distribution. Please see the [official flatpak tutorial](https://flatpak.org/setup/) for more information and note that you have to add the flathub repository (`flatpak remote-add --if-not-exists flathub https://flathub.org/repo/flathub.flatpakrepo`) as described in the Quick Setup.
|
|
|
|
**Install from Flathub:**
|
|
|
|
After you install flatpak and flathub repository, you can install [Mark Text](https://flathub.org/apps/details/com.github.marktext.marktext) with just one command (note that you may be asked to enter your password):
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
flatpak install flathub com.github.marktext.marktext
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
or `flatpak install --user flathub com.github.marktext.marktext` to install for the current user only.
|
|
|
|
To run Mark Text just execute `flatpak run com.github.marktext.marktext` or click on the Mark Text icon in your application launcher.
|
|
|
|
### Update
|
|
|
|
To update Mark Text run the following command:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
flatpak update com.github.marktext.marktext
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
or `flatpak update` to update all installed flatpaks.
