Monkey Island AppImage

About

This directory contains the necessary artifacts for building a prototype monkey_island AppImage using appimage-builder.

Building an AppImage

Create a clean VM or LXC (not docker!) based on Ubuntu 18.04.
Copy the deployment_scripts/appimage directory to $HOME/ in the VM.
Run sudo -v.
On the VM, cd $HOME/appimage
Execute ./build_appimage.sh. This will pull all necessary dependencies and build the AppImage.

NOTE: This script is intended to be run from a clean VM. You can also manually remove build artifacts by removing the following files and directories.

$HOME/.monkey_island (optional)
$HOME/monkey-appdir
$HOME/git/monkey
$HOME/appimage/appimage-builder-cache
$HOME/appimage/"Monkey\ Island-*-x86-64.Appimage"

After removing the above files and directories, you can again execute bash build_appimage.sh.

Running the AppImage

The build script will produce an AppImage executible named something like Monkey Island-VERSION-x86-64.AppImage. Simply execute this file and you're off to the races.

A new directory, $HOME/.monkey_island will be created to store runtime artifacts.
