AppStream Generator

A fast AppStream metadata generator

Not tested on a device yet. What that means

AppStream Generator in Breadstick

Breadstick runs Debian's own appstream-generator package for ARM64, the build a Debian 13 computer with an ARM processor installs. It has no program of its own: it is a Debian metapackage that brings in other packages, whose programs run in Breadstick's Terminal, or in any terminal window on the Linux desktop.

Utilities work with the files in your Linux home folder and, once Device files is granted, with your Android folders too. More about utilities in Breadstick.

About AppStream Generator

From the project's description

AppStream is a metadata specification which permits software components to provide information about themselves to automated systems and end-users before the software is actually installed.
The appstream-generator tool generates AppStream metadata from the repositories of a software distribution. It currently supports the following repository formats / distributions: Debian, Ubuntu, Arch Linux, RPM-MD (Fedora, Mageia).
The generator will produce AppStream catalog metadata files in the AppStream YAML or XML format to be shipped to users, as well as a detailed HTML report about found components and HTML and JSON reports on issues detected with the scanned metadata. It reads .desktop files as well as metainfo files, renders fonts, scales images, caches screenshots etc. to produce high-quality metadata for AppStream based software centers to consume. Usually, appstream-generator is integrated with the existing software build & packaging workflow of a distribution.
