NAME

       flatpak-build-bundle - Create a single-file bundle from a local
       repository

SYNOPSIS

       flatpak build-bundle [OPTION...] LOCATION FILENAME NAME [BRANCH]

DESCRIPTION

       Creates a single-file named FILENAME for the application (or
       runtime) named NAME in the repository at LOCATION. If a BRANCH is
       specified, this branch of the application is used.

       The collection ID set on the repository at LOCATION (if set) will
       be used for the bundle.

       Unless --oci is used, the format of the bundle file is that of an
       ostree static delta (against an empty base) with some flatpak
       specific metadata for the application icons and appdata.

OPTIONS

       The following options are understood:

       -h, --help
           Show help options and exit.

       --runtime
           Export a runtime instead of an application.

       --arch=ARCH
           The arch to create a bundle for. See flatpak
           --supported-arches for architectures supported by the host.

       --repo-url=URL
           The URL for the repository from which the application can be
           updated. Installing the bundle will automatically configure a
           remote for this URL.

       --runtime-repo=URL
           The URL for a .flatpakrepo file that contains the information
           about the repository that supplies the runtimes required by
           the app.

       --gpg-keys=FILE
           Add the GPG key from FILE (use - for stdin).

       --gpg-homedir=PATH
           GPG Homedir to use when looking for keyrings.

       --from-commit=COMMIT
           The OSTree commit to create a delta bundle from.

       --oci
           Export to an OCI image instead of a Flatpak bundle.

       -v, --verbose
           Print debug information during command processing.

       --ostree-verbose
           Print OSTree debug information during command processing.
