CLI

Bundle

Most authors only call these through the Gradle build. They are useful for checking a bundle by hand.

reseam bundle keygen

reseam bundle keygen --out ~/.reseam/bundle-signing.key

Creates a new signing key and prints its public key:

Ed25519 keypair generated
  private seed: /home/you/.reseam/bundle-signing.key
  public key (hex): 1f3c...

Users trust that public key. It never overwrites an existing file. Keep the key file private and backed up.

reseam bundle pubkey

reseam bundle pubkey --key ~/.reseam/bundle-signing.key

Prints the public key of a key file keygen made, for when you need it again.

reseam bundle list

reseam bundle list my-patches.reseam

Shows the bundle's name, author, signer (and whether you trust it), and every patch with its ID, description, apps, dependencies, and options. Internal patches are counted, not listed.

Flag
--trust <key> mark this signer as trusted in the output; repeatable
--verbose also show the engine version and the files inside
--json print everything as JSON

Listing reads the bundle's signed metadata and never runs its code, so --trust is optional. Without it, the signer shows as untrusted.

reseam bundle fetch

reseam bundle fetch --index https://patches.example.com/patches.json --version 1.4.0 --to bundles

Downloads a release named in a published index and prints the path of the bundle file. The Gradle build calls it for bundle(index = ..., version = ...).

Flag
--index <url> the release index; file: URLs read from disk
--version <version> the release; a leading v is ignored
--signer <key> fail unless the index names this public key
--to <folder> where the bundle is kept, as <name>-<version>.reseam; defaults to the current folder

The bundle must be signed by the key the index names, with the name and version the index lists. A file already in the folder that passes these checks is not downloaded again.

reseam bundle pack

reseam bundle pack build/reseam/stage --key ~/.reseam/bundle-signing.key --out my-patches.reseam

Packs and signs a staging folder into a .reseam file. The Gradle build creates the staging folder and calls this for you. The folder holds manifest.toml, the patch .jar and extension .dex files, and an optional resources/ folder.

--version <version> records the release in the signed manifest, where reseam release patches and the app's settings screen read it. Leave it out for development builds.

Packing loads the patches once to record their metadata, so it needs Java.

reseam bundle manifest

reseam bundle manifest manifest.toml

Checks a manifest.toml and prints its bundle details as JSON. The Gradle build uses it to read the bundle name.
