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

1. Clone this repo

[email protected]: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.

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>
