    A.S.A.P. - A Simple Applications Portal
is intended to provide an Applications Store for Linux devices with or without display capabilities.


With the explosions of mobile devices and the need for numerous applications addressing a wide diversity of users expectations, the former application installers have migrating toward online stores such as the Apple Store or the Android Market to name to most populars today.

Whereas the stores above runs on devices with display capabilities and provide small size applications (few hundreds of KB) running on virtual machines (JVM), there was also a need to improve applications installers and give the end-user a similar look & feel.
The challenge lies in the difficulty to manage the remote interface to handle device without display capability.

From a user standpoint, the installation of applications through the ASAP Store is pretty much the same as the installation on smartphones but the size of applications involved is much bigger (several tenth of MB) and the installation time may be a little bit longer.

RTENOTITLE   WARNING: ASAP is currently under field testing.

DO NOT USE on PRODUCTION SERVERS!



IMPORTANT: ASAP applications are packaged to be compatible with IPKG/OPKG modules. It uses the Debian package structure to carry data. Therefore, in addition to the applications provides from our ASAP repository, you will be able to manage through ASAP web interface, the installation of the thousand libraries and applications provided by the Optware/IPKG repositories.
Therefore, ASAP is also an IPKG front-end.

A.S.A.P. Eco-System

The A.S.A.P. System is based on the OPKG package management system for handheld devices - a fork still maintained of the former IPKG System.
The ASAP System involves the ASAP Store - an utility running on the user device gets application from the online store - and the ASAP Forge - a set of tools for developers to package applications and for administrators to manage the store.

Overview of the A.S.A.P. System

Today, all applications are free but donations to developers are encouraged.

NOTE: For security reason, by default the ASAP Store runs in walled garden mode and prevents access to any remote repositories but the ASAP and Optware ones.


ASAP packages

ASAP packages keep the same structure as the IPKG packages also shared with the debian packages.
There are some additional data to enable the display in the ASAP store.

To build ipkg packages you may refer to:

http://buffalo.nas-central.org/wiki/Construct_ipkg_packages_%28for_developers%29
http://www.oesf.org/index.php?title=IPKG_Howto

License

As of today, only the ASAP Store utility software running on NAS and NMP is released under the GPL license for non-commercial uses only.
