Zinnia

A cross-platform 7z GUI built with Tauri.

See ARCHITECTURE.md, CONTRIBUTING.md, and SECURITY.md.

Dev

• npm install
• npm run tauri:dev
• cargo doc --manifest-path src-tauri/Cargo.toml

Direct Cargo commands work without a separate npm run prepare:7z; the Tauri build script refreshes ignored sidecar binaries from tracked assets before the native build runs.

OS integration

• Zinnia registers common archive file types in packaged builds.
• Windows NSIS builds add per-user Explorer verbs for Open with Zinnia and Extract with Zinnia.
• Linux deb, rpm, and Flatpak bundles include desktop Open, Extract, and Compress actions.
• macOS users can choose Zinnia from Finder's Open With/Get Info default-app flow; Zinnia routes archive launches to the quick extract window.

Builds

• Windows: npm run build:win
• macOS: npm run build:mac:universal then npm run build:mac:zip
• Linux: npm run build:linux
• Flatpak: npm run flatpak:bundle

Release signing

• npm run release:sign:gpg

Updater setup

• Updater is already configured in src-tauri/tauri.conf.json.
• CI runs tests and checks on Linux, Windows, and macOS. It never builds release binaries, publishes releases, or consumes release signing secrets.
• Signed releases are intentionally explicit: run the platform-specific release:win, release:mac, and release:linux scripts for the same version. They stage updater manifests, artifacts, checksum files, and detached .asc signatures in the matching draft GitHub release.
• Do not push a release tag until every platform artifact is present and its updater signature and checksum have been verified.
