Crowdsourced App Configurations website for Obtainium.

The website is accessible at apps.obtainium.imranr.dev

URL Redirection

Obtainium's custom protocol links (obtainium://) may not be easily clickable (for example, neither GitHub's MarkDown renderer nor popular messaging apps like WhatsApp support them). To work around this, you can use the web-based redirect to get a normal http:// link that opens a webpage which redirects to Obtainium (if installed).

For example:

• Raw Obtainium link: obtainium://add/https://github.com/florisboard/florisboard
• Clickable redirect version: http://apps.obtainium.imranr.dev/redirect.html?r=obtainium://add/https://github.com/florisboard/florisboard

Link Types

As of this writing, there are two types of Obtainium links:

1. /add: These redirect the user to the "Add App" page with the URL pre-filled in. The user can then modify any app-specific setting before adding it themselves.
2. /app: These links contain an entire app configuration JSON and opening them in Obtainium results in the app being added directly into the user's list, with the app-specific settings included in the link.
   • Example: http://apps.obtainium.imranr.dev/redirect.html?r=obtainium://app/%7B%22id%22%3A%22dev.patrickgold.florisboard.beta%22%2C%22url%22%3A%22https%3A%2F%2Fgithub.com%2Fflorisboard%2Fflorisboard%22%2C%22author%22%3A%22florisboard%22%2C%22name%22%3A%22FlorisBoard%20Beta%22%2C%22preferredApkIndex%22%3A0%2C%22additionalSettings%22%3A%22%7B%5C%22includePrereleases%5C%22%3Atrue%2C%5C%22fallbackToOlderReleases%5C%22%3Atrue%2C%5C%22filterReleaseTitlesByRegEx%5C%22%3A%5C%22%5C%22%2C%5C%22filterReleaseNotesByRegEx%5C%22%3A%5C%22%5C%22%2C%5C%22verifyLatestTag%5C%22%3Afalse%2C%5C%22dontSortReleasesList%5C%22%3Afalse%2C%5C%22trackOnly%5C%22%3Afalse%2C%5C%22versionDetection%5C%22%3A%5C%22standardVersionDetection%5C%22%2C%5C%22apkFilterRegEx%5C%22%3A%5C%22%5C%22%2C%5C%22autoApkFilterByArch%5C%22%3Atrue%2C%5C%22appName%5C%22%3A%5C%22%5C%22%2C%5C%22exemptFromBackgroundUpdates%5C%22%3Afalse%2C%5C%22skipUpdateNotifications%5C%22%3Afalse%2C%5C%22about%5C%22%3A%5C%22%5C%22%7D%22%7D
