standalone-it

Create a standalone tarball of a given program containing it's dynamic libraries

WARNING: This project will copy program binaries and dybamic libraries to a tarball. Only use it if you know what you are doing. Watch out for copyrighted/patented stuff. Use it with wisdom. Respect the laws.

Keep in mind that standalone-it will not copy configuration files, assets, and any other external resources. It will only copy the binary itself and it's dynamic library dependencies.

Tested on Fedora 24

How it works:

1. Clone this repo

git@github.com:josmardias/standalone-it.git
cd standalone-it

2. Run create.sh passing a binary as argument

./create.sh /path/to/some/binary

3. A standalone.tar.gz file will be created

4. It contains the program binary and all it's dynamic libraries dependencies.

How to use the standalone tarball:

1. Extract the tarball contents. A standalone folder will be created.

tar -xvf standalone.tar.gz

(You can run those scripts below from any path)

3. Run the configure.sh to create lib folder with missing dynamic libraries

./standalone/run.sh <arguments to program>

4. Run the run.sh to start the program

./standalone/run.sh <arguments to program>
