Ro-Store

Ro-Store is a Qt 6 + QML desktop client for browsing official Project Ro applications and managing package lifecycle actions on Fedora systems.

Highlights

• Remote catalog loading with filtering and search
• Responsive QML interface
• RPM-based installed-version detection
• PackageKit-backed install, update, and remove flows
• Explicit failure states for unsupported or incomplete host environments

Repository layout

• src/: C++ backend and QML-exposed service objects
• qml/: application UI, pages, and reusable components
• docs/: architecture and development notes
• .github/: CI, templates, and repository automation

Requirements

• CMake 3.21+
• Qt 6 with Core, Quick, and Network
• Fedora 43 for the packaged target environment
• rpm, pkexec, and pkcon for runtime package operations

Note: GitHub Actions builds RPM packages targeted at Fedora 43 systems running KDE Plasma Desktop.

Build

cmake --preset default
cmake --build --preset default

If your environment injects ccache and it causes permission issues:

env CCACHE_DISABLE=1 cmake --preset default
env CCACHE_DISABLE=1 cmake --build --preset default

Run

./build-local/ro-store

Quality checks

env CCACHE_DISABLE=1 cmake -S . -B build-local
env CCACHE_DISABLE=1 cmake --build build-local
qmllint -I build-local -I build-local/RoStore build-local/RoStore/qml/Main.qml build-local/RoStore/qml/pages/HomePage.qml build-local/RoStore/qml/pages/AppDetailPage.qml build-local/RoStore/qml/components/AppCard.qml

GitHub Actions outputs

The repository CI produces only two RPM artifacts:

• ro-store-<version>-x86_64.rpm
• ro-store-<version>-aarch64.rpm

These packages are built in Fedora 43 environments and are intended for Fedora 43 systems with KDE Plasma Desktop.
