#116 Add cosmic flatpak repo
Closed by wiiznokes. Opened by wiiznokes.

we can do either

flatpak remote-add --if-not-exists cosmic https://apt.pop-os.org/cosmic/cosmic.flatpakrepo

or include the file like popos does, for an "offline" solution: https://github.com/pop-os/default-settings.

Not sure in which package we should add it


Note that packages adding external repos isn't something that it's allowed in general, unless you get approval for it.

Do you know if the ability to add the repo through a button is allowed? For example, KDE discover has a button to "add flathub". If COSMIC were to introduce a button to allow the user to add the COSMIC flatpak repository, would that be an acceptable solution?

Yes, that's what I was referring to with "unless you get approval for it" (in this case, from FESCo). Both KDE Plasma and Workstation do something very similar here (i.e. enable some third-party repositories) upon user request - but they cannot be enabled by default.
