0launch — download and run programs by URL

Author

       Zero Install was created by Thomas Leonard.

Bugs

       Please report bugs to the developer mailing list:

       http://0install.net/support.html

Command-Line Options

       0launch takes the same options as "0install run".

Debugging Tips

       To debug 0launch itself, use the --verbose and --console options. For example:

       $0launch-vvchttp://myprog

       To  trace or debug programs run by 0launch, use the --wrapper option.  For example, to run myprog--help,
       displaying all calls to open(2):

       $0launch--wrapper="strace-eopen"http://myprog--help

       If your program is interpreted (e.g. a Python program), and you wish to debug the interpreter running it,
       you can do it like this:

       $0launch--wrapper="gdb--argspython"http://myprog--help

Description

       0launch  runs the given program. PROGRAM is either a URL in the form `http://site/program.xml' or a local
       path name like `/path/to/program.xml'.

       If the program is not already on your computer, 0launch downloads information about  which  versions  are
       available,  and  lets  you  choose  one  to  download.  It  will also (automatically) do the same for any
       libraries the program needs.

       Note that much of the functionality that was originally in 0launch has now moved to 0install(1).

       0launchPROGRAMARGS

       is roughly equivalent to

       0installrunPROGRAMARGS

       See the 0install(1) man-page for more information.

Examples

       When a program is available using 0launch, it will have an associated URL. To  run  the  program,  simply
       invoke 0launch with this as an argument:

       0launchhttp://rox.sourceforge.net/2005/interfaces/Edit

       The first time you do this, details about the program are downloaded and cached, and you will be prompted
       to  confirm  the  versions  to  use.  In  future,  the  program  will run directly from the cache without
       confirmation.

       To check for new versions:

       0launch--refreshhttp://rox.sourceforge.net/2005/interfaces/Edit

       To avoid having to keep typing the full URI, use the `0install add' command to create  shortcuts  to  run
       your programs.

Files

       Configuration files (see freedesktop.org basedir spec):

       ~/.config/0install.net/injector/global
              Global configuration settings.

       ~/.config/0install.net/injector/trustdb.xml
              List of trusted keys.

       ~/.config/0install.net/injector/interfaces
              Per-interface settings, and extra feeds.

       Cached data (can be re-downloaded if lost):

       ~/.cache/0install.net/interfaces
              Downloaded cached feed files.

       ~/.cache/0install.net/implementations
              Downloaded cached implementations, indexed by manifest digest.

       See the 0store(1) man page for more information.
