NAME

flatpak-remote-add - Add a remote repository

SYNOPSIS

flatpak remote-add [OPTION...] NAME LOCATION

DESCRIPTION

Adds a remote repository to the flatpak repository configuration. NAME is the name for the new remote, and LOCATION is a url or pathname. The LOCATION is either a flatpak repository, or a .flatpakrepo file which describes a repository. In the former case you may also have to specify extra options, such as the gpg key for the repo.

Unless overridden with the --user or --installation options, this command changes the default system-wide installation.

OPTIONS

The following options are understood:

-h, --help

Show help options and exit.

--from

Assume the URI is a .flatpakrepo file rather than the repository itself. This is enabled by default if the extension is .flatpakrepo, so generally you don't need this option.

--user

Modify the per-user configuration.

--system

Modify the default system-wide configuration.

--installation=NAME

Modify a system-wide installation specified by NAME among those defined in /etc/flatpak/installations.d/. Using --installation=default is equivalent to using --system.

--no-gpg-verify

Disable GPG verification for the added remote.

--prio=PRIO

Set the priority for the remote. Default is 1, higher is more prioritized. This is mainly used for graphical installation tools.

--no-enumerate

Mark the remote as not enumerated. This means the remote will not be used to list applications, for instance in graphical installation tools.

--no-use-for-deps

Mark the remote as not to be used for automatic runtime dependency resolution.

--if-not-exists

Do nothing if the provided remote already exists.

--disable

Disable the added remote.

--title=TITLE

A title for the remote, e.g. for display in a UI.

--default-branch=BRANCH

A default branch for the remote, mainly for use in a UI.

--gpg-import=FILE

Import gpg keys from the specified keyring file as trusted for the new remote. If the file is - the keyring is read from standard input.

-v, --verbose

Print debug information during command processing.

--ostree-verbose

Print OSTree debug information during command processing.
