Warehouse: A Powerhouse Tool to Manage Flatpak Apps
|
||||
======
|
||||
Do you rely on Flatpak applications? Warehouse should help you make
|
||||
things easier.
|
||||
Wouldn't it be nice to have an app that could provide you with all the important information regarding a Flatpak app, as well as tools to manage it?
|
||||
|
||||
Well, you're in luck this time!
|
||||
|
||||
For this first look, we have an interesting app called ' **Warehouse** ' that **can help you manage Flatpak apps**.
|
||||
|
||||
We have covered a similar app in the past, '[ **Flatseal**][1]', but that is geared towards managing the permissions of a Flatpak.
|
||||
|
||||
Let's see what kind of functionality Warehouse has to offer.
|
||||
|
||||
### Warehouse: Overview ⭐
|
||||
|
||||
![][2]
|
||||
|
||||
Dubbed as “ **a versatile toolbox** ” by its developers, Warehouse can be used to **manage Flatpak user data** , **view a Flatpak's info** , and even **batch manage the installed Flatpaks on a system**.
|
||||
|
||||
It has been written primarily in the **Python programming language** , and has the following key features:
|
||||
|
||||
* **Easily manage user data**
|
||||
* **Batch actions functionality**
|
||||
* **Leftover data clean up**
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
#### Initial Impressions 👨💻
|
||||
|
||||
I began testing Warehouse on my Ubuntu setup. It was straightforward to get it installed **from Flathub**.
|
||||
|
||||
After I opened it, a list was shown with all the **installed Flatpak apps**. These were all **arranged neatly in an ordered list**.
|
||||
|
||||
In my opinion, it would look even better if they added an option for switching to a grid layout.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
📋
|
||||
|
||||
Are you curious about the app listed above, Firefox? We recently covered that, it is a system monitoring app called '[Mission Center][5]'.
|
||||
|
||||
Next, I moved on to **check the properties of a Flatpak app** , I clicked on the 'Info' logo besides an app to open up the app properties window.
|
||||
|
||||
It served up all kinds of information pertaining to the app, starting from the **Name** , **Description** , **App ID,** all the way to the **active commit** and the **installed size**.
|
||||
|
||||
![][6]
|
||||
|
||||
Similarly, I could click on the 'Trash' icon to either **completely uninstall the Flatpak app** , or **keep user data** for future reinstallation, and recover the settings/content.
|
||||
|
||||
![][7]
|
||||
|
||||
Warehouse also has a **search functionality** that allows you to search for specific apps. This can come in handy when you have loads of Flatpak apps installed.
|
||||
|
||||
Simply click on the magnifying glass at the top-left of the app to get started.
|
||||
|
||||
![][8]
|
||||
|
||||
You can also **set filters** to **sort through apps or even the runtimes** that are required by your system to accomplish various tasks.
|
||||
|
||||
Click on the 'funnel' logo at the top-left to start filtering.
|
||||
|
||||
![][9]
|
||||
|
||||
I then took a look at the **batch actions feature**. I started by clicking on the 'tick-mark' logo at the top-right of the app.
|
||||
|
||||
It then allowed me to select multiple apps, with the ability to perform actions such as **copying info** , **deleting app data** , and **uninstalling them**.
|
||||
|
||||
The three little buttons at the bottom-right of the app facilitated the above-mentioned actions.
|
||||
|
||||
![][10]
|
||||
|
||||
Post that, I moved on to the hamburger menu that featured some important options.
|
||||
|
||||
![][11]
|
||||
|
||||
The first one ' **Install from file'** which allowed me to **install a Flatpak app by using the '.flatpakref' file**.
|
||||
|
||||
![][12]
|
||||
|
||||
During the installation, it asked me whether I wanted to install it for a specific user, or everyone who uses the system. I chose the latter.
|
||||
|
||||
![][13]
|
||||
|
||||
Subsequently, I took a look at the ' **Manage Leftover Data** ' option. It showed me how much data an old Flatpak app had left behind.
|
||||
|
||||
I had the option to reinstall the app and recover the data via the 'Install' option, or I could use the 'Trash' option to completely remove any trace of it from my system. Sometimes leftover data takes up a lot of space.
|
||||
|
||||
![][14]
|
||||
|
||||
If you are someone who keeps installing/removing apps regularly, you may end up with a lot of leftover data.
|
||||
|
||||
If you want to manage Flatpak repos, you can head to the ' **Manage Remotes** ' option that allows you to add or remove them.
|
||||
|
||||
![][15]
|
||||
|
||||
While you can do this from the software center on Fedora and some other distributions, it would feel like a seamless experience, getting all the essentials under a single app.
|
||||
|
||||
And finally, you have plenty of ' **Keyboard Shortcuts** ' available to storm through all the functionalities of the app using the keyboard.
|
||||
|
||||
