This is the unofficial snap packaging for ccache, Snaps are universal Linux packages.
Snapcrafters (join us) are working to land snap install documentation and the snapcraft.yaml upstream so [Project] can authoritatively publish future releases.
- Import the Snapcrafters Template Plus repository to your own GitHub account and name it as snap_name-snap (or any valid name you prefer) using GitHub's Import repository feature
- It is recommended to avoid forking the template repository unless you're working on the template itself because you can only fork a repository once
- Update the description of the repository
- (skipped, fast-tracking)Update logos and references to
[Project],my-awesome-appand other placeholder names inREADME.md,snap/README.md, andsnap/snapcraft.yaml - (skipped, fast-tracking)Add upstream contact information to this
README.md - Create a snap that runs in
devmode, or inclassicconfinement if that's not possible- If the snap must be packaged under
classicconfinement, file a classic confinement request topic in the Snapcraft Forum, under thestoretopic category - template - link
- If the snap must be packaged under
- (skipped, fast-tracking)Add a screenshot to
snap/README.md - Register the snap in the Snap Store, using the preferred upstream name(i.e. without custom postfix). If the preferred upstream name is not available or reserved, file a request to take over the preferred upstream name and temporary use a name with personal postfix instead.
- Setup build.snapcraft.io and publish the
devmodesnap in the Snap Store edge channel - (skipped, fast-tracking)Add the provided Snapcraft build badge to
snap/README.md - Update snap's metadata, icons and screenshots on the dashboard
- (skipped, fast-tracking)Add install instructions to

- Convert the snap to
strictconfinement, orclassicconfinement if it qualifies - Publish the snap in the Snap Store beta channel
- (skipped, fast-tracking)Update the install instructions in
snap/README.md - Post a call for testing on the Snapcraft Forum - template - link
- Publish the snap in the Snap Store stable channel

If the upstream accepts the PRs AND willing to maintain the package on the Snap Store:
- Request upstream create a Snap Store developer account
- Create a topic under the
storecategory in the Snapcrafters Forum to request the snap be transferred to upstream - template - link
If the upstream rejects the offer:
- Ask a Snapcrafters admin to fork your/upstream's repo into github.com/snapcrafters, transfer the snap name from you to snapcrafters, and configure the repo for automatic publishing into edge on commit - template - link
